About the Jewess
I began this blog in April/May 2006 shortly after converting to Judaism under Reform auspices in Lincoln, Neb., as a way to discuss my journey. After all, the Jewish journey doesn't end with conversion, it's where it starts! This blog winds its way through a variety of cities -- Lincoln, Washington D.C., Chicago, Storrs (CT), Teaneck (NJ), and Denver -- as well as a variety of jobs. I trekked through Reform Judaism to Conservative to Orthodoxy while living in Chicago and converted Orthodox on January 1, 2010. I've been married and divorced since my Orthodox conversion and would proudly say I'm denominationally "Underconstructionist."
The purpose of this blog is to share my story, my struggles, my ups and my downs, and to connect with others about anything and everything Jewish and social media. Write me, talk to me, comment, and be well!

Maybe this book will be different, but I read his first, "The Know-It All," and I really hated his guts for it. He made it seem like having consumed every book of the Encyclopedia Britannica, that he was thusly the smartest man ever! Hahah! Well, he's wrong. His definition of intelligence just irked me. My feeling is that, if you're smart, you're smart, regardless of what you know. The Masai tribesmen in Africa obviously don't have the E.B. hanging around, but I'm sure they're no dumber than the rest of us. Anyway. The photo montage of A.J. with a beard is cool.
