    With 32 days left until Purim, 62 days left until Pesach, 112 days left until Shovu’os, it absolutely & positively is not too early.

    I simply rescheduled all my events from Sunday morning to another time and stayed at home, so that I could scrupulously observe “vNishmartem Me’od leNafshoseeichem”.

    Better still:- Await Erev Pesach in 72 days, and then even if you want to recite Birkas haMozon, you simply won’t have that option. I sure bet you Peacefull thoroughly enjoy this scenario on Erev Pesach.

    I guess both you R.T. & I had $600 to spare to procure a Shir haShirim on parchment scroll.

    Could you R.T. help me raise some funds so that I could procure a Kosher Sefer Toro and do my Shenayim bMikro from a Kosher Sefer Toro.

    Enough time to read Shir haShirim from a Parchment scroll {over which I recite a Berocho on Shabbos Pesach}.

    This being after I have trashed the packaging from the packaging of my folded laundered shirt from the cleaners.

    I find it extremely disturbing when but so much less disturbing than a cell phone having the audacity to blare during the silent Amida, or any time during services, including a wedding I attended the other day, when people during the Chuppo let their cell phone ring during the Chuppo as they were making their way out of the Chuppo room to answer their cell phone during the chuppo.

    This is true, and is also used in various Shuls in Yerusholayim.

    Chas veSholom that vaYeshev & Mikketz would be ever be switched around.

    What is correct however is that Thursday & Friday of week of Mikketz is always Chanukah, and Mikketz is only Parsha that is never read on a Thursday morning.

    The only 2 Parshios that are never read exactly 4 times in any given year are Mikketz & vaYelech. Mikketz because that Thursday is always Chanukah, and that Monday only comes out before Chanukah if Rosh haShonoh had fallen out on Thursday.

    vaYelech, when Rosh haShono is Thursday or Shabbos is joined with Nitzovim. When Rosh haShono is Monday, vaYelech is omitted on that Monday morning. When Rosh haShono is Tuesday, vaYelech is omitted on that Thursday morning Tzom Gedaliah.

    What’s more disruptive, 2 men shmuezing in the main shul or 12 in the ezras nashim? When same people systematically arrive each & every morning the exact same # of minutes late, & we often have to await same exact people to be able to recite Kaddish after Rabbi Yischmo’el.

    Then when latecomers have to run the water faucet to lave their hands, on everyone else’s Cheshbon as they disturb the people who arrived on time and are already diligently praying.

    Next year 2 reasons, why commencing vSein Tal uMotor on evening of December 5th:- 1) December 4th is a Friday evening. 2) Even if December 4th was a weekday evening, being prior to February 29th [Civil Leap Year], it would anyways be pushed off to evening of December 5th.

    secretagentyid- So am I, since I was Zoche to be in Israel during marCheshvon. Being that it is already more than 30 days since I am requesting veSein Tal uMotor, I can assume I have requested, so thank you but no Thank you to sayIDidIt for your kind offer of this veSein Tal uMotor sign.

    I came back this year from Eretz Yisroel during merCheshvon, after they had already commenced requesting veSein Tal uMotor. Needless to say, I commenced requesting vSein Tal uMotor in Birkas haShonim, on marCheshvon 7th whilst in Israel not to be Poreish min haTzibur who is in dire need of rain.

    Once I had commenced, the next Halocho of “Ein Mafsikin” comes into play, so I have continued ever since my return from Eretz Yisroel to Chutz lo’Oretz to request veSein Tal uMotor in Birkas haShonim.

    BTW:- It is a wonderful idea for all of us to keep going to Eretz Yisroel and showing solidarity with our Brethren in Eretz Yisroel. I cannot recommend it highly enough, it is so wonderful.

Plain & Simple:- The more religious votes, the more seats in the next Israeli Kenesset for the religious parties, and then the more improvement in edicts for we religious Yehudim.

    I am already now concerned that 2033 could turn out to be a bad year Chas veSholom, since we shan’t have protection of Tekias Shofar min haToroh that year, since R’H shall be on a Shabbos during 2033. To add to the fear, I suspect some neo Nazis will then be celebrating 1 century since the rise of Hitler Yemach Shemo vZichrono to power during 1933.

    Meanwhile it is important to understand in no uncertain terms, that YWN took the absolute correct decision in publishing the gruesome picture of the attack. We have to comprehend the full atrocity of this massacre, and the world has to witness the carnage in picture, each picture being worth 1000 words.

    There is solely only 1 wrong decision in all of this:- The terrorist decision to commit this horrendous atrocity. This remains the sole & only wrong decision that was made in this entire saga.

Especially today on this 24th Johrzeit of Rav Meir Kahane HY’D, why should a murderer walk the face of this planet when the slain victim cannot walk the face of this earth?

    I was at the Kever yesterday @11.30AM on the very 1st Johrzeit. A lot of people there. I went before the big gathering @2.30PM which would have been far too crowded. …. I also paid 20 Shekel to have 1 “Ous” in a Sefer Toroh they were finishing in his memory.

    I have met the Rov many times, in USA, UK & Israel.

    I simply cannot comprehend why we are being inundated with so many reminders to make an Eruv Tashilin? This is not such and intricate & complex matter. Just as I didn’t forget to bang my 5 Arovos 5 times and to eat my breakfast, likewise I don’t forget to shower & make Eruv Tavshilin before Kabbolas Yom Tov, so something out there about all these reminders is escaping me.

    Why do some people vent all there frustrations on the Hosha’nos because our entire current calendar was formulated just so that Hoshna Rabba will never fall out on Shabbos not to miss this all important fete of banging 5 Arovos 5 times on the floor. So this is such an important time to bang with all of our might.
