Could be that's what you meant. But anyways, there can be other languages that go in same directions too, just the reason why I referred to them as Hebrew and English directions is because that's what I'm familiar with. If you want to get technical then you can call it what you want.Jewish Side of Babysitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15792110478994916775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783686265399505970.post-37999713569034082952008-10-08T13:48:00.000-04:002008-10-08T13:48:00.000-04:00What bothers me is that Babysitter and then Moshe ...What bothers me is that Babysitter and then Moshe refer to left to right writing as English.

The Hebrew numbers are in red, and the English in black. <BR/><BR/>I didn't know that their customers couldn't read Hebrew. I've shopped there before, most seemed like frum people. But really, I hadn't know people actually look at the calendar and papers these stores put up. But that makes sense now, cause it's probably the ones that can't read Hebrew that would check to see when the store hours are, so you are right.

If I would be making a Hebrew calendar that would be the way I would do it. <BR/><BR/>At first when I saw the title I thought it had something to do with Kansas, I thought that they had used a Kansas calendar so the days came out different or something. So I was looking at it and it all made sense to me, seemed to be on the right days. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps I'm just used to it this way, and if I wasn't then I would find it strange too.Jewish Side of Babysitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15792110478994916775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783686265399505970.post-52369522784978824002008-10-08T12:27:00.000-04:002008-10-08T12:27:00.000-04:00I love some of the sales, like the tissues and che...I love some of the sales, like the tissues and cheese and I love the BBQ chicken and I hate everything else.Ookamikunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01145237927656807738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783686265399505970.post-84430496620470973872008-10-08T12:06:00.000-04:002008-10-08T12:06:00.000-04:00You seem to have this love/hate relationship with ...You seem to have this love/hate relationship with MF.
