To send or not to send

I don’t know about you, but my inbox has been inundated lately. No, it’s not only invitations to join Facebook (it’s funny how otherwise free-thinking 30 and 40 year olds can all be convinced to do exactly the same thing at the same time). It’s e-New Years cards for Rosh Hashana.

Granted, some of them are quite artistic and touching, like this one from my friends at Studio Avidani in Jerusalem, but it opens up a whole issue. Do I need to respond to them? What if they’re from a PR firm which I tend to ignore all year anyway? Do I look like a callous jerk if I don’t send my own cards, investing hours in finding the right art and just the right sentiments to transmit?

As the ‘Mats sang so eloquently on Pleased to Meet Me – “I don’t know”.

But, at least if any of you toiled away to make the ultimate Shana Tova email card, I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you – all the Israelity readers – a happy new year right back at ya. Just don’t expect a card.
