Lost Voice

I managed to catch a cold over Shabbos. No stuffy nose, just a headache and chills, along with difficulty sleeping motzei shabbos. By Sunday all that remained was a headache, and a voice which disapeared.
Today I still can't talk much. Of course, that meant that I had to get called on in one of my classes. To the question of "Can you help out X (a fellow classmate)" I had to repeat "Not really" a couple of times before the professor heard me.

But anyway, the next post or two will respond to comments on my Birthright post...stay tuned
