I am writing to you from the ELAL lounge at JFK airport, where I feel like a pimp, got me a press pass and I have been taking all the free stuff lying around. Got some of these pimp magazines for rich folks who own jets and yachts, the magazines weigh a ton but hey its free.
I got to skip the whole line and I have this pimp press pass hanging around my neck, yes I feel cool. I met someone I knew- who was bringing his sister to the aliyah flight and I spoke briefly with some fellow bloggers. They are about to have some ceremony involving cake and soda- andf speakers as well- but I just felt the need to blog- plus the folks from Nefesh B’nefesh and Web Ads Israel would like me to bust out some posts to pay for the free trip to Israel.

yo yo yo
i really wish i could see all the thoughts that are going through your head right now – would be hysterical….oh to be a fly on the wall….
so which bloggers are you chatting with?
no pictures???
you got a free trip dude, the least you can do is provide some pics
Have a wonderful time. I’m most curious about Jameel and Jack… keep us informed.
How’d you finagle this free trip?
Ask them if they need the Israeli sport fishing scene blogged about, I’d be happy to do it for a free trip + beer. Tell them to throw in the boat too.
Have a good time.
That’s a great part of the deal, but you got it to blog/photograph/interview, not just enjoy the perks.
I hope you filled up on coffee, since sleeping on the plane isn’t in the plan. At least that’s how I felt when I accompanied the nbn flights.
All that free swag looks tempting now but its just more junk to carry or dispose of later.
HAHAHAH – you guys should have seen Frum on the plane…in business class!
He could barely contain himself
I’ll bet. Did you open his air vent so he wouldn’t get damaged in-flight? (walkman reference)
“Pimp” and “frum” on the same page. I’m picturing you dressed in Adam Goldberg’s getup from The Hebrew Hammer and I’m not sure that’s a good thing.
Oh well, enjoy yourself and be careful not to throw lingo like “pimp” around too much…
