The Month of Bul  

JL;DR SUMMARY The article explores the significance of the month of Cheshvan, also known biblically as Bul, which marks the completion of the First Temple's construction.

Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
