Oy joy and holy kripe!

Chrismukkah is almost here which means the end of my fun run is done for at least another year. The book is charting #8 on Amazon's religious humor list and #1 for Jewish holiday books. There'll be coast to coast media tomorrow: from Martha Stewart Living and AM New York to Bozeman's local KBZK-TV news. Happy Chrismukkah to all

8 Days to Chrismukkah

To celebrate this bitterly cold Montana morning (it's been below zero the past few evenings), with just 8 days left before Chrismukkah, we've decided to go skiing at our local ski mountain. Minna wants me to be her personal ski instructor this year (rather than taking formal lessons from the professionals) and that makes me happy. We'll see how well we both do. For several weeks now, the paperback edition of my Chrismukkah book has been the #1 Jewish Holiday book on Amazon's list of best sellers. It's also been as hight as #10 on the religious humor list.... for whatever that's worth. http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books/12561/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_b_1_4_last Like so many others this year, I've been toying with Facebook and Twitter as ways of getting the word out. I love FB as a way of staying in touch with friends, and Twitter is great for keeping tabs on late breaking news... but as "marketing" tools.... I don't get it.
