And so, friends, we seem to have come to the end. It has been exactly a week since I returned from Florida. One cannot simply be the King of Jewish Baseball forever. One must, after all, get a job, and take an e-publishing course at NYU. Every story, every book, every life, no matter how great, and no matter how desperately we want to think otherwise, must end. And this is it.
I will revisit the blog and will post relevant news as it occurs, but as for regular posts from your favorite genius, this will be the last.
I printed and re-read the blog. Here it is.
Nearly 200 pages of musings, photos, videos, and prolific exaggerations whipped together like a violent and beautiful tornado of genius and technology given shape in the form the Greatest Blog of All Time. We have covered some ground, from Gold Jewelry to Richie’s Gym, the A’s, the T-Dogs, and, of course, the Tournament, the Team, the Wins, and the Loss. And it has been fun, maybe the most fun you’ve ever had, the most fun you’ve ever had reading at-least. And I thank you for joining me– us, for the ride.
Just because this is the last page of the Book-Video-Blog-Genius-Masterpiece-Semi-Autobiographical-Graphic-Novel known as the King of Jewish Baseball, it is not the end of the road for baseball in Israel, and it is not the end of the road for me. Not even close. And we still need your help. To support Israel Baseball, visit the Israel Association of Baseball’s website… www.baseball.org.il.
And always remember, no matter what time of day or night, feeling good or bad, sad or indifferent, know, my children, that as you rise each day and make your coffee and tie your shoes and drive your cars and think your thoughts, you are the King of Something – the King of Doing the Dishes, or the King of Turkey Sandwiches, the King of Laundry Day, or the King of Listening to Talk Radio. So, ask yourselfs, one last time…
What are you the King of?
The only thing I know with certainty that you are not…
Signing off.
