Every year before Rosh Hashana, businesses and organizations start sending out Rosh Hashana cards via email. Most are pretty much the same: nondescript text with a picture of an apple, or honey, or apple and honey.
So it’s very refreshing to get a card that stands out and even makes you laugh. If I was holding a contest for the best corporate Rosh Hashana card, Ruthi from Rotem Design would win hands down. Here’s what she sent:

It’s a play on one of the Rosh Hashana blessings that says “We should be a head instead of a tail.” This version says “We should be a head instead of a thief,” a telling statement when there’s a picture of the Knesset in the background.
May this be a year where our politicians start to act like they have some responsibility towards the citizens, and where tax money is not for their personal use.
Shana tova!
