Hi Shimon,
It's really refreshing for me to read nowadays something from Israel that does not involve the prevailing lunacy.

As usual, the soundtrack of our life is sung by the Beatles )here in their cover Money )That's What I Want( by Radford & Gordy(:
The best things in life are free
But you can tell me 'bout the birds and bees.
Now gimme money )that's what I want(
That's what I want )that's what I want(
That's what I want, ye-ye-yeh,
That's what I want
