jetlagged at midday

its 2 o'clock and mincha is in an hour. Maale Gilboa is an intresting place and I like it, very pluralistic and accepting with a big spectrum of views. Its wierd though out of a yishiva of 120 there were only about 30 people at shacharit and even now there are only about 70 people in the beit midrash, they say its not usually like this, yet I get the feeling that at this place you have to create the experiance for yourself. I was talking with Eitan Rubenstien last night about the place and he said the closest thing that he has heard to a pro "flipping out" shiur was last week, when he first said it I was a bit suprised that it was going on here but when he said that it was the strongest "flipping out" advice it seemed almost to bland. Tonight I will be heading off to beit bnei akiva at 32 nikanor st. in katamon, I just have to make the bus to yirushalim which leaves latest at around 7:30. anyway I better be getting some rest before mincha .... az l'hitraot
