gefenParticipant
onegoal: you will surely be missed!!!!!!! hatzlacha in Eretz Yisroel!!!!!!!!!!
so that’s why you were on a plane with sem20 and midwesterner’s daughters, huh?
remember us here in the cr!
looks like syag’s really gonna miss you!
gefenParticipantsem20 – if you need a photographer, someone to set up the sound equipment, and sing/harmonize, my son’s the guy for you – but you know that already!
btw, chaplaintzvi plays the drums and sings.
the females in the family sing too but i don’t think that would go over very well here. LALALALALALALALA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gefenParticipantAren’t you supposed to daven WITH a siddur? that’s what we always learned.
December 21, 2011 12:46 am at 12:46 am in reply to: How Many Sufganiyot Did You Have Tonight? #836865gefenParticipantdidn’t have any yet! i was too lazy to make them tonight. 🙁
i’ll try for tomorrow IY”H.
oh wait – i’m talking about latkes. i just realized the thread is about sufganiyot. oh well – i’m leaving this post on anyway.
gefenParticipantso when is the party? Happy Chanukah everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what should i bring? i know! i’ll bring my family so we can have family time!
gefenParticipantyentingyenta- yeah, now i’m worried. i may have given away too much info. uh oh – any stalkers out there? um… i guess i shouldn’t get that topic started again. my apologies!
syag – yup – cinncinati – that’s it – u got it!
see, yenta, maybe i’m not talking about chicago after all. 🙂
moishy – ur still coming for chanukah?
gefenParticipantwait – so the vort was in HP? was it at the grandparents house? cuz they live near me in wrp.
gefenParticipantUm – sounds like a lot of you who are so against this, actually saw it on TV! do you have TV? why is that ok- and ybc singing one song not ok?
gefenParticipantyeah my daughter just figured it out a few minutes ago!
gefenParticipantmidwesterner – i get the nk part, but what’s hp?
gefenParticipantso sorry moishy! do you forgive us? 🙁
actually you can complain to sem20- he was the one in charge of invitations! 🙂
wanna come for our chanukah party?
gefenParticipantyup moishy – i guess we shuda given you more notice, huh?
gefenParticipantmoishy – you shoulda been there! ya missed an amazing party! (not sure you live anywhere near where the party was but anyway…..)
gefenParticipantso zk – i guess you win! nobody else has a thousand names. 🙂
gefenParticipantzk – it’s like a picture – worth a thousand words (all good – of course)
gefenParticipantzk – you should be number ONE not ten.
you said we should post with a smile. what if someone posts something really nasty and then puts a smile at the end? will that negate the negative and fit in with your requirements? 🙂
just asking…. cuz ya know…. some ppl around here can’t always be so nice 🙁
gefenParticipantwe know a few ppl with four names! can anyone beat that? i’m sure if ya think about it…
coffee, then i’m sorry i accused you.
gefenParticipanti dunno ’bout a pic but he did get video.
midwsterner’s wife – great desserts!
gefenParticipant“I won’t ask the other way around, since it’s clear this is not a good idea (kedusha should go upwards).”
I see many have asked why he wrote that. I, too, have an issue with it. But I don’t need to ask what he means by it. IT’S KIND OF OBVIOUS! And apparently coffee feels the same way about women!
gefenParticipantIf that’s the only thing that will keep you from getting any rewards, then you’re ok- imho.
Seriously, why would your lip syncing be such a deception? Is everyone really interested in whether YOU are singing? Do you think everyone is just looking at you so see if you’re singing? Everyone is enjoying themselves, including you, so what difference does it make?
gefenParticipantSo when and what time is the CR Chanukah party? What should I bring?
I love tzaddiq’s dreidel story! On what site did you buy it? I must have one!
gefenParticipantThanks everyone – I now read that post. It’s such a shame that he hasn’t been back since then!!!
gefenParticipantreal: i’d love to if i could find it. can you post the link here?
Wait – I found it – but the second post is:
“yitayningwut
Member
!! “
I don’t get it. Why does that mean that ayc posted?
gefenParticipantSam2: Problem is your account can be hacked. It happened to a cousin of mine and some horrible things were posted on her site.
gefenParticipantreal israeli – can you tell us where he is?
December 15, 2011 3:17 pm at 3:17 pm in reply to: Please daven urgently for a 11 day old baby in Hospital #835748gefenParticipantRefuah Shelayma!
gefenParticipantZeeskite: “I hear from the mods..” “I think you’re hearing things” I love your response! Cute!
Azolis: What are you talking about? Evidence? Sounds like you’re talking about criminals. You want them to say who they think is mechalel shabbos? Why? What’s it our business? This is a public website – despite the fact that it is a frum one. Anyone has the right to read and post here.
The best thing for us to do is NEVER MAKE A CHILLUL HASHEM!!!! We must always act appropriately- here and in real life! I would hope that anyone here on the cr who is not frum or not jewish would come away with a good impression of the frum world. True – nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes, argue, etc. but in general we do have a high standard to uphold – and that is the standard Hashem set for us with the Torah. Let’s do our best to make a Kiddush Hashem!
gefenParticipantYehudahTzvi: yes please give us a source for this! If it’s really true, i’m sure a lot of us here would like to know about it.
Sheva B: True – the surgery (c-section) itself was not painful. I had local anesthesia for all of them and was aware of what was going on – just a bit sedated but not much. The pain and discomfort after my first one was kind of hard – but the next two – not so bad. I agree that the discomfort of the stent after the lithotripsies definitely outweighed that of the c-sections and subsequent weeks.
btw – you are not boasting. sounds like we’ve kind of had similar experiences; kidney stones (though treated differently) and c-sections. and we both agree on which was worse.
gefenParticipantICOT: That’s a great idea. Chanukah is a great time for all of us to be b’simcha – and that means having AYC come back!
gefenParticipantHealth: thanks for the clarification/correction. i wondered if i was saying the right thing.
Sheva brachos: even though i had lithotripsy twice, not surgery, i still had to have a stent put it. the procedure breaks up the stone then the stent allows the pieces to pass. i also had it in for about a week. COULDN’T WAIT TO GET IT TAKEN OUT! SO UNCOMFORTABLE!
Aposhitermaidel: so true about the diff between childbirth and kidney stones. with the first you come home with an adorable lovable baby. with the second you come home with an unadorable unlovable kidney stone. 🙂 (though i never actually went through the childbirth process totally as i had 3 c-sections – i did have the labor pains – ouch- but TOTALLY WORTH IT)
gefenParticipantYup – been there done that. First time was probably about 12 or 13 yrs. ago. Did not have the typical pain just some discomfort and other symptoms so it took them 8 months to figure it out. The stones were too big to pass so I had a lithotripsy (not sure of spelling) done. That’s were they sedate you and lower you into a pool of water. They then shoot laser beams at the site where the stones are. This crushes them up to make it easier to pass. It was after I got home that i experienced the PAIN. But I’m here to tell the story- B”H. I then had the same thing a year and half later. Same treatment also.
Prevention depends on what kind of stones they are. Though drinking a lot – especially water – is good, i believe, in preventing most stones.
Since you asked, i’m assuming you have them? if you do, refuah shelayma.
gefenParticipantpopa – it sounds like the reason they are assuming the complaint was not legit was because they continued to eat it. if it was so “terrible” as they claimed why would they finish up the whole thing? i wouldn’t eat something i thought was terrible, would you?
gefenParticipantwhat exactly do you mean by “frum”?
gefenParticipantzeeskite: we had a dusting of snow early this morning. just enough to kinda look nice. how’s the weather by you?
(and stop stalking me 😉 JK LOL)
gefenParticipantwuzzat with the picking on zeeskite?
December 9, 2011 4:34 am at 4:34 am in reply to: Why does chicken say OU glatt on it when glatt doesn't apply to it? #834038gefenParticipanthand me the kleenex please. i need to wipe off the vaseline from my hand.
December 9, 2011 12:20 am at 12:20 am in reply to: Why does chicken say OU glatt on it when glatt doesn't apply to it? #834030gefenParticipantI always wondered about that too.
If sam2’s answer is correct, then i think it’s a silly reason.
if you know the halacha, then you don’t need the word glatt.
and for ppl who aren’t so makpid about kashrus, what does that one little word mean to them anyway?
gefenParticipantok- third time this question is asked here –
WHICH THREAD????????????????????
gefenParticipantzeeskite – we think alike?
gefenParticipantkfb – that’s not as funny as it is pathetic. (the fact that he’s president, not your comment – just wanted to make that clear :))
gefenParticipantyeah – which thread?
gefenParticipantpost on the cr 😉
really – i eat CHOCOLATE FUDGE BROWNIE ICE CREAM!!!!!!
gefenParticipant#1 song = Yalili – oh wait, that’s not classical?
ok so – cats in the cradle (sniff) – – seriously, it really is a touching song.
st. elmo’s fire. that song is played on the background of our wedding video – you know the part where they show the pics of us growing up (do they still do that these days?) and at the end of the video as well.
i’m sure i’ll think of some more. right now – too tired.
gefenParticipantstill delayed or are you home yet?
gefenParticipantstill delayed or are you home yet?
gefenParticipantPopa why aren’t you going around looking for onegoal – just like everyone here looks for you?
gefenParticipantFeif Un: great! loved your post!
gefenParticipantjust for the record; i am not advocating this simchas bas thing – at least not the way it’s presented here. a celebration yes – but within halachic guidelines. if sfardim do this, i guess they have their mesorah for it.
i was just saying how i feel that a daughter is very much a blessing – no less than a son – imho. and no – i am not arguing with the gemara.
gefenParticipantGavra – ????? (?????? ??) ??’ ??? ?? ????? ??? ??? ???? ???? ??? ??? ?? ?? ??? ????? ???? ????? ?? ?? ???? ???
Yes but it is said that ??? does mean he was blessed with a daughter. So I like that view. No I would not chas v’shalom argue with R’Mayer or R’Yehuda. I’m just saying what i think.
gefenParticipantLuke: I am not involving myself in any machlokes. I just never heard of it before. And i still maintain — All of my children are a big bracha to us!!! There is no audacity in saying that!
