Has some interesting parallels with today's "fake news" problem.Penghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126716050414392264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-85059595881588173822020-04-25T18:47:45.135+01:002020-04-25T18:47:45.135+01:00You also have good taste Steve (and Dave).You also have good taste Steve (and Dave).Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-90095082202328556102020-04-25T18:47:13.603+01:002020-04-25T18:47:13.603+01:00I don't think you will be disappointed Sue.I don't think you will be disappointed Sue.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-70475096772753347742020-04-25T18:29:03.764+01:002020-04-25T18:29:03.764+01:00Dear Mr. Pudding: Congratulations on your fine bl...Dear Mr. Pudding: Congratulations on your fine blog and your international army of loyal followers (not the faux-llowers, who traffic in a certain canned meat product from Austin, Minnesota, USA) - Yes, "Unorthodox" looks like an interesting show (you might like "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel", too, if you dare to make a foray into Amazon Prime), but I'm posting here because it's a more recent, more noticeable place to post comments about your "Referring" post from January. I found you because you mentioned some of the skeezy sites that are referring bots and scammers to your site, and an Ecosia dot org search led me to you. You were complaining about the same phenomenon I'm running into with my blog. Anyway, my sympathy and solidarity. Did Meike the Data Security Expert ever come through with further explanation? <br /><br />Also, congratulations on your The Headland book! Have you been getting good sales and reviews?<br /><br />p.s.

Sure, you may find that if, now, you'd ask some youngster or even middle age oldster where a certain word originates from they wouldn't have a clue yet those Yiddish words (and sayings) are alive and well. To this day.<br /><br />On which happy note, the first time, alas not the last, my mother asked me "Where do you take your Chutzpah from?" was when I was fourteen. Chutzpah. Now there is a fine Yiddish word.<br /><br />UUrsulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722046288685936851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-5366465627797367962020-04-25T10:46:07.121+01:002020-04-25T10:46:07.121+01:00Helen Shapiro could have been Esther Shapiro's...Helen Shapiro could have been Esther Shapiro's mum... but she wasn't!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-7182402213421847252020-04-25T10:30:13.595+01:002020-04-25T10:30:13.595+01:00Is Helen Shapiro in it YP?

I then purchased the Fire stick and all is well.<br />I really loved this series and learnt a lot from it. There is another orthodox Jewish series on there but not as good.<br />Hope you are keeping safe and be back soon.
