not bourbon
classy is overrated.
As someone said a 21 year old scotch is (generally) much better than bourbon however I prefer bourbon most times.
To me Bourbon is steak and scotch is like fine chocolate 9 times out of 10 I’ll take the meat.
There was a small difference I think it was $33 instead of $30
I bought Rowans creek recently. did you recommend it in the bourbon thread? it’s pretty good, better taste than corner creek imo.
Im saying it isnt shoveh to bourbon and half the taste isnt bourbon and half isnt scotch
auchentauchen is not a bourbon or shaveh to it either.
I believe the alleged issues with bourbon are the fact that they may be jewish owned and therefore chometz sheavar on pesach.
I dont know if I believe the issues but I cant bring myself to drink anything on the list just in case. I guess B”H I have a better heart than head.
sac is right that real men drink bourbon and though there are normally less options the bourbons tend to go faster.
Woodford is a good choice because it’s smoother than most bourbons so many people will drink it.
Mazel Tov!
jackie o was popular in the 60’s. if she wants to make it she needs to design what will sell now.
this is way beyond the scope of the board.
EDITED
wishing happy or sameach is perfectly normal we do it for all yomim tovim so we do it for chanukah as well.
exactly, mbachur
mbachur you said you went to a school part and part. Ner Yisroel isnt because I believe even the locals have to dorm. even if they dont dorm it is set up as a primarily out of town yeshiva.
wow,just wow
to me thats when we say it.
working with my mother made hard for kibud aim
it’s minhag some people have it some dont elu v’elu divrei elokim chaim
I think a yeshiva that is part in town and part out of town isnt so comparable to a full out of town yeshiva and isnt ideal.
I went out of town at 14 and it worked well for me. I wouldnt want to send my sons at that age but not because I think it’s a problem to go at that age.
EJ it meant nothing other than he wanted to call you haskallah.
cherrybim are you impying that good boys go bad if they go out of town but not if they stay in town? (you are implying it but did you mean to)
your question was when did it become lechatchilah, my response was it still is lechatchila or when did it change. from my experience (only 15 years ago) it should still be lechatchila on some level.
out of town doesnt have to be hours away where you can only come twice a year. it can be relatively close where you come home often enough*.
I have a Wii we dont use it for exercise.
the wifi capabalities have to be hooked up to a network. even when hooked up to a network arent meant to be used as internet but for buying games and playing others. also comes password protected and you get a list of every site visited and how long it was used for.
I dont buy porn games :majoreyeroll:
when did it become not lechatchila is the better question?
If you can handle being out of town, then by all means you should go to the best school, for you.
whats the big deal? there are plenty of things that are pricey if you can afford it then go ahead.
There is a medrash that (loosely) says rich people should live to their standards because they will be more likely to give tzedaka.
tipping isnt lo sechaneim. if there’s an advantage to you (i.e. receiving better service) then it isnt “chinom” or for nothing.
Also mentchlechkeit isnt to be confused with lo sechaneim. (generally speaking not refering to tipping)
NIRC is a good yeshiva if you are looking for that type.
When you compare NIRC to other yeshivos they have a good english dept.
NIRC is expensive and as mentioned doesnt have a lot of time off to be home.
you dont need a TV you need a monitor of some sort.
harmful, killing your kids…big words. Care to explain?
meir is right, if you want a shidduch some form of monthly support is expected.
“sacrifices” that word is hilarious. 75% of the couples there the sacrifice is made by the parents killing themselves to support the choushuve couple.
myfriend I have asked in the specific case you claim maris ayin and was told it was ok.
whoa, whoa, whoa, mdd if you cant fully understand the MB you arent midakdek in halachah and are the minority. you are very wrong.
in US today the MB is the most common sefer for psak but many people have other sources that they follow.
is he going to the mir? WIY gave good advice
mrafsa nigra.
thats hypocrisy but not calling people names and then accusing them of name calling.
grada in my case we were advised to have the ger to be on the second day of Y”T.
chesedname look back you used those names on posters I pointed out its wrong in turn you call me one or both.
its beneath you to respond but not to call people names…ok
I was told that its the cooking that is assur. I would think that a seudah on Y”T wih uncooked food might be M”A but how would people know they are goyim.
calling people rishoim and apikorsim because of overassuring isnt ok.
really, assur period. I had a goy in the process of becoming a ger at a yom tov meal I checkd with a posek it was muttar so chesedinnameonly you are wrong.
mariage or not the kids are your family and could be jewish.
I ilke this one and explains the posters here as well
from Hedberg “Maybe in order to understand mankind we have to look at that word itself. MANKIND. Basically, it’s made up of two separate words “mank” and “ind.” What do these words mean? It’s a mystery and that’s why so is mankind.”
poster its obviously her given name.
helpful (ironic names seems to be the trend) one of their kids became frum so maybe she shouldnt have broken contact regardless of whether or not they sat shiva.
bpt, if you dont send your child based on WIY embellished tales he did an avlah.
it was a mitzuyan yeshiva
chesedname, I think you need to sit out the next few plays. clear your head.
yeshivish by modern standards.
walking into a restaurant isnt maras ayin.
if you work with many people some of whom arent jewish for a while it can be a greater chilul hashem not to invite them then the potential fallout.
we pay $1,000’s less for weddings than they do.
Im 29 spent 3 years in Israel and know exactly what happens.
My example was bad because the implication is that rebbi was only acceptable outcome.
you are sensationalizing and failing to realize that 90% of what happens by 90% of the people would happen in their home country as well.
In the winter its just challah or cake and tea.
WIY you a sensationalist and exaggerating facts.
I know a guy whose parents heard a terrible report and were about to pull him home until their Rov insisted they check with the yshiva. The R”Y said while you may have heard truth he’s on the precipice of change.
They left him and today he is a Rebbi.
