    ok, daas yachid – i guess you can see my info. 🙂 so why can’t we see everyone else’s; i thought putting down the info. was mandatory.

    ah…thanks…you’re right. since i could see my occupation, i thought everyone could, but now see that they can’t.

    okay. there goes that theory. 🙂

    princesseagle – it’s great to have questions – it means you’re a thinking person. and it’s even better to have the qyestions when you’re young, when you have time and energy to look for the answers, as the answers are definitely there! rabbi kaplan’s books are great! so are rabbi keleman’s and rabbi tatz’s. also, one can take basic hashkafa classes at neve yerushalayim and all the teachers there know how to answer questions.

    okay, am yisrael chai – so my post doesn’t apply to this thread at all. it too can be deleted. 🙂

    i would like to meet: mashiach, Queen Esther, King Shlomo, and Rav Shlomo Wolbe (though i did see him davening).

    E is more common than I

    S is more common than N

    F is more common among females.

    T is more common among males.

    P and J are about 50/50 in the population.

    just stopped by to give you a friendly smile 🙂

    Rav Wolbe says that there are ??? ???? and ??? ????. some days, everything just goes smoothly and we feel great, and some days – we just feel horrible and like nothing is going well. this is normal, part of the nature that Hashem implanted in this world. trick is to do a litte less on the ??? ???? – be extra nice to yourself; you should still have a minimum of what you do, like daven, etc. – but be a little more gentle with yourself on those days and don’t strive for the maximum. the days when we have super energy and are feeling great, are the days that we should really work on ourselves and expand.

    here’s another smile for you. ? and some music ? (some nice person taught me how to make these notes.)

    Not a problem in my neighborhood since we teach gemara to women ;).

    does that mean then that the woman knows the halacha so she’s not upset or is she then a talmid chacham in her own right and so should go in first? 😉

    you’re normal, at least what i know of you from the cr. 😉

    i’ve been there too and only chance of sanity was to go to bed very early and nap when 2 year old is napping also, even if house is messy for some time. good luck!

    yay, mod. 80. i know you’re not endorsing it, but i’ve NEVER heard of a doctor even suggesting that it’s not the worst thing in the world. so, kol hakavod to you for being so progressive!!! all my babies go to sleep on their stomach, cuz that’s the only way i’ve been able to get more than a half hour sleep at a time. (admittedly, i do breathe a sigh of relief once my baby is over the 6 month mark).

    my babies also pick up their heads and necks, turn over, etc. way before other babies who are flat on their backs all day (which also can prevent SIDS as they can move their bodies if they’re having any difficulty). also, very rarely do doctors emphasize in same tone of voice how important nursing is in preventing sids. my babies sleep in a co-sleeper next to me (though do sometimes end up sleeping with me in bed), and believe me – i am very aware of my babies and am not at all concerned about rolling on top of them.

    i can’t stand these type of threads – feels like i’m in elementary school again. who do you like the most? who’s the funniest? etc. let’s just enjoy the cr and not make it into a popularity contest.

    sorry am yisrael chai. nothing against you. i’ve seen these threads too many times, and yours was just the straw that broke the camel’s back. 🙂

    aries: what daas yachid wrote is true. if i know why a guy is doing or not doing something, i won’t consider it rude.

    as you know, there are many other ways to see if someone is rude or not. and, just because someone has social etiquette, doesn’t mean he is a nice guy.

    i went out with both kinds of guys and had no problem with either; it said more about what kind of background they were coming from, rather than a statement of their etiquette.

    usually, the guy who went forth would explain his behavior and/or make a joke about it or something.

    adorable (and for “trying to decide”)- to answer you here and about your comment on forgetting about your pain on the other thread:

    i know many people who have used their “failings” to help others. i know a girl who almost went OTD, and now helps many, many girls living on the fringe regain their lives back, get married, etc. the book, “just one jew” – the author went completely off and now, after many years of trying and doing everything out there, he is bringing tons of people back. often, because of what one did, they are able to use their remembrance of the pain and understanding of what caused them to do what they did to truly help others.

    i agree with bpt – i think you’ll be great in 20 years and will see that everything you have gone through is for your best and actually will help you grow more in the future and help others grow. you can do it!

    cookies – for yourself.

    it’s obvious that it’s not that hair per se is untznious, or else how could single girls walk around with their hair uncovered.

    some of the more learned ones in the cr can explain what the deal is with covering hair. all i know is that married women are commanded to cover their hair, and thus THEIR hair, no matter how ugly or pretty it is, becomes untznious.

    in reply to: sheitel vs hair #768430
    hanib
    Participant

    for the simple reason that we are commanded to cover our hair, and not doing so is an aveirah and doing so a mitzvah.

    (obviously, no one should view anyone negatively -none of us are perfect, yet).

    mod. 80 – i think you should give Dr. Pepper a contract; even computer generated characters don’t like to work indefinitely. they have rights too. be careful or all the other computer generated characters may rebel.

    anyways, i know the truth. nobody else in the cr is real, except for me. modern technology is truly amazing.

    mischief maker: right, and the person, if he himself is good, is the 1; so a 1 in front of 6 zeroes is 1,000,000. 😉

    there’s story about a great tzaddik marrying off his daughter to an orphan. at the engagement, the tzaddik says, “we have a minhag to read off the yichussim of both parties.” so he starts listing all the yichus on side of girl. then it’s the boy’s turn: he says, i don’t know my parents or any yichus, but one thing i learned when i was an apprentice to a shoemaker. “as long as the candle is lit, can still fix the shoe, and i apply that to the neshamah.” the tzaddik says, “that’s equal all the yichus in the world”

    it’s not settling, like others said, if you like the person, enjoy being with them, am not un-attracted to them, have similar values, and respect them. and nothing inside of you is telling you to stay away.

    that’s called – making a wise decision.

    actually, in reality, pac man may be correct – if it truly guaranteed peace, i don’t think the gedolim say not to give up land. the problem is that any sane human being knows that giving up land does not ensure our peace AT ALL!!!! in fact, every time, we give up land, the Arabs just want more. they won’t be happy until they’ve thrown every Jew in to the Nile (their own words, not mine).

    i try to keep remembering the difference between a tzaddik and a rasha.

    see, that’s the problem with noticing someone’s gone; takes time for my brain to realize all the people who we haven’t seen for awhile. also, some people don’t post all the time, so if haven’t seen them for a few days or so – doesn’t mean anything. anyways, hi candy!
