Summary:It puzzles me when I see a section of the paper dedicated mostly to food. With the subtitle of the magazine being "making the most of your leisure time," I wonder: Are we a society centered around food? I hope not, but when it seems that most of our "leisure time" should be centered around food, I start to worry. I suppose I was lucky that someone forwarded me the Weekend dated June 18, as I was never sure why one should visit Israel. Archeological, historical, religious and natural aspects are obviously not important enough to enthuse a tourist to visit Israel. But now, at last, we have a reason to leave Bangkok and Amsterdam out, and instead do the gay tour in Tel Aviv ("The diva and the Holy Land"). I am surprised that you didn't include a map showing the best massage parlors and listings of telephone numbers of the better-class prostitutes of both sexes.
