My husband is my hero.
It's 10:48 p.m. and he's studying Hebrew so that he can charm his way into a sherut (a van taxi) for some friends who need to go to the airport tomorrow at midnight (that's Friday evening - shabbat [sabbath]). They've already tried and got all negative responses and one guy who wanted to charge extra and take them there an hour and a half early.
Yup, he's my hero.
Mark, you're awesome!
and. . . did it help?
