Oddly similar to the temperature distribution within my house
Another day of unseasonably cool weather across the eastern third of the U.S. today, while the western two-thirds will see unseasonably warm readings. Warm temperatures push further east by mid-week, while cooler readings return to the west by the weekend. Visit weather.gov for your area weather.

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)
As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

If you visit downtown Tupelo, there’s a store with a sign telling the story about how a young Elvis walked in hoping to get a rifle and got sold a guitar instead, and in all seriousness there should be a national grassroots initiative to do that all the time everywhere.
