A Cross-Section of Jerusalemites

As I rode the light rail last week, I saw a cross-section of Jerusalemites gathered at one of the stations, waiting for the next train.


I saw a nun, an Arab man and several Arab women wearing traditional dress, two religious Jewish men and several other people.

Wrapped Around Her Paw

Yup. That’s where Hadi’s got me.


Allow me to demonstrate. First, the gentle paw on the hand, with just a hint of claw behind it:


Hand on paw


Oh! She’s got me!


Gotcha!


And again! There’s no escaping Hadi the Mighty Huntress....


She got me


A moment of indecision. Hmm, the huntress wonders. Now that I’ve established my clear superiority, what should I do next?


Hadi washes her paw


Inspiration strikes. I know! I’ll demand a tummyrub...


Kitty bliss


... and get it.


Is this what they mean by “the belly of the beast”?
