Standing again at Sinai. I'm not going to be here for Shavuot, because I signed up for this for the third year in a row. Great davening, great study, great scenery (and maybe this year not freezing every night with intermittant hot water, for a change), great singing (I always come back with several wonderful new melodies for zmirot and liturgy), mediocre socializing. So I pack some reading material and leave the 20-somethings to their "Did I meet you two years ago at Pardes/Harvard/Schechter/JTS?" (Last year the organizers put all us old fogies in the same bunk, which was sweet.)
But seeing what gala events are planned for Manhattan, I kind of regret leaving town. If you're in NYC and want to get together with a lot of Jews doing that critical intelligence thing we are so famous for, check it out.
I have been very slack in the Jewish holiday blogging this year, and in past years I didn't write much about Shavuot at all. So I am going to make it all up to you now. While I am at Camp Ramah in the Berkshires, I leave you with enough study material to last you all night, if you have no Tikkun Leil Shavuot in your area.

The Naughty Boy
There was a naughty boy,
And a naughty boy was he,
He ran away to Scotland
The people for to see
Then he found
That the ground
Was as hard,
That a yard
Was as long,
That a song
Was as merry,
That a cherry
Was as red,
That lead
Was as weighty,
That fourscore
Was as eighty,
That a door
Was as wooden
As in England
So he stood in his shoes
And he wonder'd;
He stood in his shoes
And he wonder'd.

Where Go The Boats?
(1)
Dark brown is the river,
Golden is the sand.
It floats along forever,
With trees on either hand.
(2)
Green leaves a-floating,
Castles of the foam,
Boats of mine a-floating
Where will all come home?
(3)
On goes the river
And out past the mill,
Away down the valley,
Away down the hill.
(4)
Away down the river,
A hundred miles or more,
Other little children
Shall bring my boats ashore.
