No, Bad!

Look what you did on the Internet! No, bad loopy Kabbalist blogger! We do that outside, in the bushes, where no one can see.

Seriously, I'm trying to respect people's views on Godly plans and "freaky" coincidences and stuff, but... GAH!

Lag B'Omer marks the 33rd day of the Omer, when R' Akiva's students stopped dying. The 32 days prior to Lag B'Omer are a time of judgment. Historically, following the time of judgment, when the students stopped dying, R' Akiva began building up a new student body from only 5 students who survived the dying time. 24,000 students of R' Akiva died.

There were 32 deaths, 33 deaths including the shooter, at VA Tech. One of those 32-33 deaths was an Israeli professor, Livui Librescu, a shoah survivor, who died protecting his students during the dying time - unlike R' Akiva, whose students died while he survived the dying time. The number of deaths ends at 33 - like Lag B'Omer.

Perhaps Livui Librescu, in some manner, is the tikun of R' Akiva. Thousands of Akiva's students died. Livui's students lived - all of them. Professor Librescu rescued all his students.


You have officially poked me in the eye with your Divine Phallus. Thanks so much.

A childhood accident left me with a bizarre mutated form of magnetism- morons are attracted to me and deposit their stupidity in my ears. Or in this case, eyes.
