d aMember
Mod, can you remind me how to put the < > thingys without it turning into italics or bold like you did above. Thanks!
And ronrsr, why is that post on this thread? Did you mean to put it HERE?
d aMember“I Had A Life But My Job Ate It” is now hanging by my desk in the office. Thanks tzum_zach!
November 8, 2010 12:34 am at 12:34 am in reply to: Jewish Vice President: Good Idea, or Bad Idea? #707669d aMembera yid would make sure to fight for his brothers when the need arises…
We had two Jews who were on the top of Obama’s White House. One is still there and there are many more on lower levels. Are they helping us in any way?
d aMemberI put this sign up on my bedroom door:
If you have nothing to do,
don’t do it here!
d aMembercofeefan, dont come to my neighborhood! Cats GALORE!Its totally nuts!
d aMemberBEST IMA, crazy!!!
d aMemberPlease note: when I wrote my above post, StateSenator’s second post had not been posted yet.
d aMemberSegulah for finding lost objects:
Amar Rav Binyomin Hakol B’Cheskas Sumin Ad Sh’Hakadosh Boruch Hu Meir Ess Eineim Min Hacha Vayifkod Elokim Ess Einha
(Something like that!) It really works.
Have in mind the words that you are saying! Know that without Hashem we can’t do anything!!! The object can be in front of your face and you won’t see it without Hashem! This happens many times to me. Searching and searching and then I say Amar Rav Binyomin, and the thing is right there in front of me!!!
d aMemberIt looks like our StateSenator copied his post from another blog…
Anybody know if Joseph Hayon won?
d aMemberpopa, your funny! Did you say pizza?
d aMemberMy mother wis sitting in a doctor’s waiting room when my baby brother grabes her sheitel and runs into the men’s bathroom!
In the Mesivta that I went to, the secretary is the only female person in the entire building. So when she needs to use the bathroom, she uses the Rebbe’s.
One day, a Rebbe was walking with a bunch of Bochrim talking in learning. They came to the bathroom and the Rebbe unlocked the door. (This Rebbe is more of the absent-minded type and I guess he forgot to knock.) And yes, the secretary was inside…
d aMemberpopa, where did you come up with those numbers?
d aMemberronrsr, thats good!
However, go to the toy stores today and you’d see its not true anymore!
d aMemberI went around 10 AM. It wasn’t too busy and it was very simple and easy. I don’t see why people were making such a fuss about the new machines.
ronrsr: …when I was a boy…
Did something change?!?!?!
d aMemberAfter months of negotiation with the authorities, a Talmudist from Odessa was finally granted permission to visit Moscow . He boarded the train and found an empty seat. At the next stop, a young man got on and sat next to him. The scholar looked at the young man and he thought:
“This fellow doesn’t look like a peasant, so if he is no peasant he probably comes from this district. If he comes from this district, then he must be Jewish because this is, after all, a Jewish district.
“But on the other hand, since he is a Jew, where could he be going? I’m the only Jew in our district who has permission to travel to Moscow.
“Ahh, wait! Just outside Moscow there is a little village called Samvet, and Jews don’t need special permission to go to Samvet. But why would he travel to Samvet? He is surely going to visit one of the Jewish families there. But how many Jewish families are there in Samvet? Aha, only two – the Bernsteins and the Steinbergs. But since the Bernsteins are a terrible family, so such a nice looking fellow like him, he must be visiting the Steinbergs.
“But why is he going to the Steinbergs in Samvet? The Steinbergs have only daughters, two of them, so maybe he’s their son-in-law. But if he is, then which daughter did he marry? They say that Sarah Steinberg married a nice lawyer from Budapest, and Esther married a businessman from Zhitomer, so it must be Sarah’s husband. Which means that his name is Alexander Cohen, if I’m not mistaken.
“But if he came from Budapest , with all the anti-Semitism they have there, he must have changed his name. What’s the Hungarian equivalent of Cohen? It is Kovacs. But since they allowed him to change his name, he must have special status to change it. What could it be? Must be a doctorate from the University. Nothing less would do.”
At this point, the scholar of Talmud turns to the young man and says, “Excuse me. Do you mind if I open the window, Dr. Kovacs?”
“Not at all,” answered the startled co-passenger, “But how is it that you know my name?”
“Ahhh,” replied the Talmudist, “It was obvious.”
d aMemberEver wonder what would happen if we treated Torah as we treat our cell phone?
What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we flipped through it several time a day?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it as if we couldn ‘ t live without it?
What if we gave it to Kids as gifts?
What if we used it when we traveled?
What if we used it in case of emergency?
This is something to make you go….hmm…just where is my Torah today?
Oh, and one more thing.
Unlike our cell phone, we don ‘ t have to worry about Torah being disconnected because its calls never fail.
Makes you stop and think “where are my priorities?”
And no dropped calls!!!
d aMemberSprint is very good.
d aMemberholy brother, Shcnitzel is chicken. I don’t see why it should be anything else but Sheakol.
And dunno, you are correct.
d aMemberPoster, I like the poster. That was very good!

d aMemberWay too quite here…
d aMemberBy the way, if you are looking to be a volunteer with special children, if after a while, they want to pay you (through ResHab or any other way), and you agree, what might happen is that you will lose that push you had originally…
d aMemberI am going to try to answer my own question. I saw in another thread:
Sacrilege
the real one
coke
I’m pretty sure I am older than you. I am from Flatbush (that narrows it down)
So, I am going to assume that you volunteer in Masbia of Flatbush. Were you there during the summer? And, what ‘job’ do you mostly do?
d aMemberSacrilege, which Masbia do you volunteer in?
I wanted to volunteer at Masbia. I called a few numbers but didn’t get any answer and did not get my messages returned. So, one day, I walked into Masbia on Coney Island and asked to volunteer. I filled out a little form, they gave me a tour and told me I can come whenever I want. I ended up going a few times and mainly I washed the dishes and silverware. Other volunteers would serve, clean tables, fill up the water/salad/bread/margarine etc. I also stayed for closing tme and helped clean up the place. The main workers are very nice and easy to get along with. I should really go back ther and help out some more…
d aMemberFrom what I know, his name is Avigdor ben Yaakov A”H. I don’t know if there are any second names.
d aMemberTalking about Schnitzi, there was a thread started a while back by that name. And here it is:
d aMemberI forgot about this thread and just saw it, and yes, my diet is messed up!
And Ben Torah, I don’t taste so good…
d aMemberHis name was Avigdor but I am not sure if that was his whole name and I don’t know his fathers name.
d aMemberI STOPPED! B”H, I have not bit my nails for over 40 days!!! But now I peel them instead. Someone tell me what to do!!!
Good Shabbos!
d aMemberI heard that Yitzchok Eisick is out of the hospital and Etel is off the respirator, Boruch Hashem.
d aMemberMississippi mud… Sounds VERY appetizing!
d aMemberapushatayid, careful! Someone might make a username with some of your suggestions above!
d aMemberJust reminding you about the new, free, very useful app that this thread was started for:
d aMemberjl, can you comment on this thread:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/design-alive
d aMember(i didnt read all the posts)
I heard that people with special needs (like deaf, mute, paralyzed etc.) sometimes have that disability because in there past they did something wrong with that body part (ex: mute – spoke a lot of Lashon Hora) and Hashem allowed them to come back with that disability so that they wont be able to do that sin when they come back and this way they will have a ‘kappara’.
October 27, 2010 9:26 pm at 9:26 pm in reply to: What Product, Device, Etc Would You Like To See Made? #704298d aMemberthinking jew, I always wanted a washing machine that will automatically send the clothing to the drier (and it wont send those things that shouldnt be dried…)
d aMemberYoish Im Telling you, stick around and you’d see, we do!
d aMemberRecently, the CR has been “down” for hours at a time. Where are all the super-duper moderators?
d aMemberbaron fritz, good joke!
d aMemberfeivel
2. while holding the Sefer, hold it with the front facing you, in the manner you would hug someone
Is that true? On Simchas Torah, when dancing with a Torah, do you hold the Sefer backwards?
October 26, 2010 12:50 am at 12:50 am in reply to: VOTE! who would you like to see a street named after in jerusalem? #703573d aMemberMy name might look good on a street sign…
d aMemberI clicked on this thread cause I thought it said Jokes! Anyone hear think Jobs are a Joke? (Mine is!)
October 24, 2010 8:56 pm at 8:56 pm in reply to: Your theory what Mosherose true motivation is? #704419d aMemberpopa_bar_abba, can you explain how you did THAT (link)?
d aMemberas aries2756 said:
Put out your DO NOT DISTURB sign so housekeeper does not enter your room on Shabbos.
That is a very good tip. (You also may have to be concerned about any food left in your hotel room. [Ask your Posek…])
d aMemberLets see, breakfast today: two cans of Pepsi (not really breakfast, but my morning “food”)
Lunch: Some egg salad, lettuce and pasta with tomato sauce.
Supper: Probably nothing. Maybe a bag of chips at 12:00…
Why am I hungry now?
d aMemberAnd, which thread was it (with a link…)
d aMemberL613, I don’t think its that simple. To claim it, they will ask you many questions. Where you lost it? What train line? What time of day? Any special signs on them?
And if they catch you lieing, it may look like Yidden lie.
