[HANASHIR:3023] moonlighting, Hashkivenu, hydration

[Rick Lupert <Rick...>]

On Moonlighting:

In Los Angeles I have been on the payroll of as many as 4 synagogues 
simultaneously, as well as accepting additional 'freelance' work for 
camp weekends or individual events.  It has never been an issue with 
any of the institutions.  The only thing which I can think of which 
could come up is which temple/school takes priority when conflicting 
events occur.  Generally this isn't a problem...but occasionally it 
comes up.  I don't believe it's the responsibility of the school to 
'understand' when you can't be there for a special program because 
you've chosen to be at the one for your other school.  It's important 
to have calendar information for all jobs at the beginning of the 
year, including all special programs and to identify any potential 
conflicts, and work them out at the beginning.

Of course, this is probably obvious.



On Hashkivenu/Shelter Us:

According to the liner notes of Mah Tovu's album "Only This" (a 
wonderful recording)  The music to the Hashkivenu is by Mah Tovu 
(Steve Brodsky and Josh Zweiback), and "Shelter Us" (music and 
lyrics) is credited to Larry Jonas.




On Hydration:

Just to be on the safe side, I've decided to give up on water 
altogether.  From this point on, I will exist solely on a diet of 
liquid matzah.  It's all about kavanah people.
