hey random question: second time i forgot to say my tehilim. should i give it away? i mean, i really want it but i also don’t want to mess up the system…
yeah well that was DHI’s idea. maybe cuz he got the idea from you. the mods didn’t open it.
and anyway, just cuz i’m always right doesn’t mean no one can ever be correct on specific occasions. i know how to share :}
it’s up to you brook.

I thought this thread was gonna reach 1000 last night,guess in the end ppl do sleep huh?
random question: i know how i stay tuned here here during the day, but how do the rest of you? the ones that don’t work in an office
How do you stay tuned in an office, does your boss let you or he doesn’t know about it?
you got me there Rosh Yeshiva- and that’s why we have you round here. For your pure wisdom and direction- showing us the straight path to the…. coffee room
hey take it easy areivim. just curious cuz i don’t work in an office.
leave curiosity to curious- you stick to your specialty
areivim-as you wish. How dare you post in middle of work?! it’s geneva!
RY- who said geneva isn’t my proffession?
random question:
what color is a polar bear’s skin?
hmmm, I noticed that things have been mysteriously disappearing from my desk every time I log on to the CR. areivim, how much to get them back?
i retract my question
i was going somewhere with this, that pb fur is fiberoptic directing sunlight to their black skin which absorbs it.
this is an old idea which has been proven to be false, i discovered on googling it.
their skin is black though, under the fur
charlie- that all depends… that’s a dangerously vague question you ask
if a minnow is attacked by a pike fish and its skin is broken, why does it emit a chemical that attracts more pike to it?
feivel- its a good thing u retracted that hot topic cuz Rosh Yeshiva was about to deliver a long drasha on it
google minnow… google pike fish… ok- anyone got the answer yet?
its a lumdish answer
four facts will help you divine the answer:
1. there are large pike and small pike.
2. large pike will eat small pike.
3. large pike swallow minnows whole.
4. small pike generally damage minnows before they are able to eat them.
areiv
there is a fish called a “pike minnow” which will make googling the answer very difficult, the pike minnow googles will be a “red herring”.
areivim I think you’re right didn’t you say you were a shadchan?
feivel:
This seemingly suicidal behavior is actually a clever survival strategy. The minnow’s chemical has two distinct functions. First, it warns other minnows about the danger. Minnows travel in schools with close relatives, so this chemical alarm warns the others away from potentially dangerous waters. Even if the original minnow is eaten, its brothers and sisters will live to reproduce. From a genetic standpoint, this self sacrifice makes sense.
You might wonder about the chemical’s other function though–to attract more pike. A minnow’s skin is most likely to be damaged in an attack from a relatively small pike. Larger pike simply swallow their minnows whole. Because of this, the alarm substance is usually released when a small pike is attacking. This means that the chemical might well attract pike that are larger than the minnow’s current assailant. Pike have no qualms about eating other pike, so if a big one sees a smaller pike chasing a tiny minnow, that big pike will go after the larger mouthful, allowing the minnow to escape.
BTW, it was #1 on my second google search
ok curious- you now seem fit to be a Rosh Yeshiva’s wife. it’s not about having the knowledge, it’s knowing where to get it that counts
My goodness Feivel what’s so exciting with fish pike?
areivim – Ok, so let’s hear a valuable suggestion. I think the current RoshYeshiva is already taken.
How’d you know i’m married-curious?
So my guess was correct, huh?
My understanding was that nobody gets married as a “rosh yeshiva”. That title only comes years later, with the help of a supportive wife. 🙂
BTW areivim I’m taking your above comment as a compliment.
curious: only that my wife doesn’t support my posting on the CF she thinks it’s a waste of time especially for a RY!
Why CF and not CR?
feivel- You feeling all right asking everone to start googling pike fish’s suicidical methods? Oh Boy!
R.Y- The real proof that you aint a R.Y is that you wrote “only that my wife doesn’t”. A REAL Rosh Yeshiva would’ve written “only that my REBBETZIN doesn’t”!! Gotcha!
