Tisha B'av Pun

We survived the fast. Didn't do much today other than shul and food shopping (couldn't avoid the latter - it was still Thursday too, right?).

When I was growing up there was pretty much nothing to do on Tisha B'av. These days, every shul fills the day with lectures and inspirational videos. But it occurred to me that they all missed a great opportunity for a pun. Now you may think levity is inappropriate for Tisha B'av, but since puns elicit mainly groans, I feel I'm only doing my small part to promote "taniya va'aniya".

So, next year, I'll tell the Rabbi to announce: "After shachris, we will have out Kinot speaker."

(Get it? Kinot - Keynote? Hey, what's with the rotten tomatoes? Alright, I'm delirious from the fast, cut me some slack...)
