Barry will be speaking in Jan, 2007

I have barely touched this blog, podcast, nor my book since my precious son, Akiva, was born on May 5, 2007.

Yet today I was contacted by a magazine for "a seltzer quote," received a lovely email (below) from a self-defined seltzerman and, to my amazement, am giving the following talk on Long Island next month at North Shore Synagogue:

Seltzer

Wednesday, January 9 -
7:30 PM

Barry Joseph

Barry Joseph set out on a search for the details of the history of seltzer some five years ago. The Jewish Forward published his initial article on seltzer and he was heard at the Limmud Conference at Kutshers three years ago. The guy is a delight, and he has an uncanny resemblance to one of the chairs of the Committee for Lifelong Learning.

What's amazing to me is that this is the synagogue where I grew up. I will be speaking in the very room where I was Bar Mitzvahed.

Perhaps it should not be TOO surprising - my dad runs the program! - but still...

Should be fun. I will try to record it and post it as a podcast.
