aussie, whats this gmail thing about? (I have yahoo…)
squeak: Oh is that what it was about? I keep forgetting its April 1st.
so that one must have been chomeitz, no?
why?
you just did something to my brain, random question,
why does matzah have to be baked in 18 minutes? where does the time come from?
kapusta: That is how long it takes for the bread to rise.
Where did April fools day originate?
kapusta: yeah! that’s the story!
kapusta, it was chomeitz because they threw the dough into a bag an left. it wasn’t being handled the entire time – it was left alone.
aussie, matza is chomeitz way faster than in 18 minutes- if it’s left alone and not being played with for even a minute (or i forgot how many seconds) it’s already chomeitz.
Honestly. Have you ever actually laughed out loud when you wrote lol?
aussie, yes, yes, yes! I guess guys are more serious, that’s why they just say ha
moish, I believe that this is a common misconception people have. They did not put the dough in the bag and let it rise “on their backs,” as is commonly believed. They were leaving in a hurry and didn’t allow the dough to rise, rather they just baked it, as is/was, hence, unrisened(I just made up that word) bread, aka, matzah.
~a~
unrisened
anonymisss, AOB could probably confirm this, but the correct word would probably be unrisen
or maybe just bread that didn’t rise? 😉
random question: If someone realizes that for whatever reason, they didn’t say birchos hashachar by the time it’s dark, are they supposed to say it or not?
you think? i dunno – i never thought it was really on their backs/shoulders but you think they baked real kosher matzas? i wonder.
and no, we’re not more serious. we just don’t LOL from every stupid little thing because we have a real sense of humor.
moish, can I include myself in that category even though I’m not a guy? I always feel for the people who laugh at stupid things because they think it’s real humor, a shame they don’t know any better… I guess I agree with you on this one, (???) or maybe just that girls are in general more laughy types.
random question: If someone realizes that for whatever reason, they didn’t say birchos hashachar by the time it’s dark, are they supposed to say it or not?
anyone?
hey, kapusta, all this talk about bread/matza reminded me, did you ever find out about answering amen? I’m curious what the halacha is.
~a~
anonymisss, no I didn’t, and I’m not really expecting to, soooo not my type, I know myself…
kapusta you wouldn’t ask someone (father, brother, teacher) what a halacha is? why on earth not?
areivim, possibly, but I know it won’t end up happening.
kapusta, what is that supposed to mean? What do you do when you have a question?
~a~
anonymisss, generally I ask, but sometimes/somethings not… not a good topic to get into…
kapusta- those that are embarrassed to ask will never learn
ames- well if you sent your husband to “chase him down the street”- well then i don’t blame him for not wanting to go! 😉
Ok, I can’t judge, I really know nothing about you, where you’re coming from, or your family situation. I am sure that you have a valid reason that you are this way. I still think that it’s a good idea to have one person to ask such questions to, even if it’s someone who can find out an answer for you. All the best!
~a~
kapusta- why is it not a good topic? I think it’s a very important one actually. There’s absolutely nothing to be embarrassed of to ask your father/brother/teacher if you’re allowed to say amen after you washed. It’s a smart, deep, legit sheilah. I can’t understand what might be the problem…
anonymisss, AOB could probably confirm this, but the correct word would probably be unrisen
kapusta: why me?
areivim, embarrassed isn’t really the issue, something else entirely. sorry buddy!
random: why can’t you go back to the last post when a new page is started?
kapusta- why get out of center stage? you put moish through it, why can’t you be the one in the spot light this time? 😉
😉 i second that
kapusta – I asked my father if you could say amen after you wash and he said yes as long as you didn’t say Hamotazi yet.
unrisened
anonymisss, AOB could probably confirm this, but the correct word would probably be unrisen
or maybe just bread that didn’t rise? 😉
I beleive the correct word is unleavened
does anyone know if someone who has their permit (but not license) can drive in another state?
thank you to everyone who answered my question, now I just need an answer to my other one 😉
areivim, you’re right, you can do whatever you want! I’ll just be sitting here laughing… 😉
AOB, you’re the CR english major, at least since you rejected my title of being second in command (I think it was you!)
aussie thanx for the confirmation, now you and AOB can share the english major title…
kapusta: what was your “other one”??
i think i prefer youngest member. at least it’s true (i think!!)
looks like everyone has questions but nobody has answers.
kapusta: i’m not sure what question you’re referring to. do you mind repeating it?
ames: sorry, i have no idea. otherwise i would answer your question. i know how it feels 😉
my question that didn’t get answered: can someone who has their driving permit drive in a different state (than where they live & got the permit)??
kapusta, thanks for asking about her. Baruch hashem, I’m very proud of her right now. She got a job for the days that she’s off before pesach which is great. She feels like she’s doing something, she feels good when she has money in her pocket, and most important, she’s not bored, which is really awful for her (for most people.) How she spends her free time, I don’t ask. I know that the most important thing for her right now is to feel good about herself.
Now, to put you back into the spotlight: jk, i wouldn’t do that to you.
aussie, I think that’s the correct word. Thanks.
~a~
AOB, my other what?
ames, IIRC (thanx 39!) you once said (way back when) that you asked Rabbi Miller zt”l in the street one time, as for my opinion, I think people like that must be used to it and I don’t see why not, I probably would be shy but force myself to do it.
AOB: I don’t think so. Because even with a provisional license they can’t so I’m assuming especially not a permit
anonymisss, can I get an answer? How’s she doing?
ob, you said something in the hangman thread like, you’re younger than moish, but you’re not younger than 16. Can you tell me what that means exactly? That’s not possible unless you’re talking about months or something…
CR addictive story: when I was logging in, I typed in my name and my fingers automatically went to the shift/8 key to do the * thats part of my…
ames: I would think that you can ask anyone for a bracha, it is up to god to decide if it shall be followed through, but I cant think of any reason why you cant ask anyone for a bracha.
ames: i say go for it, and next time ask for a Bracha!
AOB, about this post…

I’m really not this type with all these issues (do I come off as being like that??? well no personal issues but we wont get into that now) and it’s not such a major issue or anything but I just don’t think it’s worth it because it’ll cause trouble and it probably wont help me and I do have someone to ask most of these questions too, and one more thing, thanx!
(that gets an award for the longest run-on)
areivim and anyone else who would like me to take hold of the spotlight, go ahead, I love a good laugh!
ob, you said something in the hangman thread like, you’re younger than moish, but you’re not younger than 16. Can you tell me what that means exactly? That’s not possible unless you’re talking about months or something…
kapusta:
that is what it means exactly. good guess 😉
ha that’s funny about your signature
your posts are really confusing me. maybe you should consider getting some sleep at 2 am?? 😉
was your other question (the one you wanted answered) the question for anonymisss? i wasn’t sure what you were talking about.
how do you know when my birthday is?
AOB, how do you know you’re younger in months? was there a list of CR birthdates that I never added myself to?
ha that’s funny about your signature why now?
and about the sleep, I don’t (me, and aussie, and Jax!) but thanx for the idea!
as areivim says—->we need a Random Answers thread!
ames: Just do it. Worst case scenario is you feel a bit embaressed.
aussie – would you?
moish01: Maybe. I dont know.
hey random question: why do you call me “moish01?”
because thats your sn.
