    don’t have:

    that’s a little more than SICK! so in the middle of davening you get a phone call. or a text message. if that doesn’t disturb you then what does? maybe it’s a great thing to have on you JUST IN CASE you get arrested and don’t have a chance to grab a siddur. but honestly, is it such a big deal to use a siddur from the shul? or to keep one in your car for the once in a blue moon that you might get stuck davening be’yachid?

    you’re right in that her resoning was that she felt it was unbecoming. but WHAT did she feel was unbecoming? what was she sensetive to? the fact that his leg showed. it was the tznius that she learnt from her father. true, (whether right or wrong) shaul might have not been the type to dance in public at all. but michal wasn’t rebuking david for dancing. she wasn’t stupid – she knew her father and david were very different and had differnt ways of serving hashem and she accepted that. except for when it touched on shaul’s greatness. and like i said, she was wrong and she was punished for it. but WHERE was that coming from? a praiseworthy aspect of king shaul.

    joseph – i guess “c”

    and btw – remember that question of mine about “the dead dog in the white house?”

    that was andrew johnson. after he was impeached, but not convicted and he remained in the white house but was completely ineffective. he vetoed anything that came his way and congress overrode everything he tried to do. hence, “dead dog in the white house.”

    i honestly have know idea WHY this conversation is taking place. it’s 100% predictable. the “black hats” are gonna state every single rabbi that says it’s assur and then the rest of the poasters will say “but i don’t hold by any of them…”

    well good luck to you. you’d just better hope God doesn’t hold by them either… which i highly doubt…

    they also wore robes to the floor. i highly doubt anyone saw their legs. remember the story with david hamelech? how michal rebuked him cuz his leg showed a little when he was dancing? and he was a man! she was wrong – but look at her sensetivitly towards tznius? and where did she learn it from? her father!

    because of rachel’s tznius, she was zoche to have shaul. and in the zchus of his tznius, he was zoche to have esther.

    you know how amazing shaul was? when he was chasing david he entered a cave to releave himself. he thought the cave was empty but really david and his men were there. yoav told david that this was his chance to kill shaul. when david approached he saw how tznius shaul was when he thought he was ALONE and he was going to the BATHROOM! chazal say that he naver exposed himself completely – when he picked up his inner layer of clothing, he made sure the outter layer was covering him. and he was a guy! imagine a woman???

    Editor, we need to talk about a raise. I’ve been working overtime deleting many kefiradika and apikursidika comments, especially made by commenter [DELETED BY JOSEPH-100: EVEN YOU — I MEAN ME — ARE PROHIBITED FROM LOSHON HORA/NAMING NAMES!]

    joseph, for riddle #1:

    i would split them into two groups of five and weigh one. if it equals to 67 grams, you know the delta ones are in that pile and you split that group into 2 and 3, weighing one of them.

    if the original 5 only weighs 65 grams, you know they are all alphas and you go directly to step 2 of the first group (weighing 2 or three of them)

    am i right? (this is so not my thing!)

    maybe! no really – i’m not as good as i should be. i’m doing the wrong thing too. and i could rationalize like everyone else from here to tomorrow. and some of my reasons really have basis… but when it comes down to it, i’m wrong. period.

    98 on both american history and global. but my knowledge of american history is all from elementary school. we had awesome teachers in every grade – from 5th through 8th. (my american history teachers in high school were horrors. or maybe WE were the horrors – so they couln’t teach???)

    oh and that second “we” is not just me! honestly!

    1)a murder is a flock of crows. and 2)you said “due to Ransom” – skipping the word “a” and capitalizing the “r” so i’m assuming “Ransom” is the name of a person who bought the business.

    thanks for the tips!
