squeak… thanks! I will see if it helps! I will try to keep that line of communication open …even if it is for one or two word conversations.
I said “helige state of NY and Baltimore”… baltimore is a city, i know. i should have said it “Baltimore and the helige state of NY”…. what I meant was that all the options seem to be for people in those two states. what about people in texas, florida, illinois, ohio, california, missouri and all the other states that jews live in (almost all except montana i think… and maybe utah)?
H?
whoa! what is with all these urban legends about seeing rochel imanu? I mean, everyone hears a different story, with a different twist and nothing is ever found out to be a fact. like that manhatten scare last week….
Ave I and what? McDonald and what? is there a website that tells you the addresses?
ok, maybe I am a bit paranoid that they are watching me…. can we make this into a general “CR Psychotic disorder” group? I think more people will be helped by this than just me.
The following types are welcome: Are you:
-paranoid that people will find out your sn?
-lacking in anger management control?
-fearing you have multiple personality disorder?(Common symptom is having more then 1 sn)
-laughing so hard that your coworkers are ready to have you admitted?
Thanks squeak… i might be fan #2….too bad that i already tried finding common ground and something neutral to talk about and she wouldnt continue the conversation… hard to talk when someone is responding in one or two words…
Can I send this person here for therapy? (OH NO-THE DREADED T-WORD) But then they would read this and know I am talking about them…
A man dies and goes to heaven. In front of him was a large wall with clocks, each with a little name on it.
“What are those?” he asked G-d.
“Well, each time someone tells a lie, their clock moves a little bit.”
One was stopped- “That was was Washington’s, the first president of the USA. He almost never lied.”
“So where is Obama’s, our next president?”
“Oh, that one is in my office. I use it as a ceiling fan.”
Brooklyn, I disagree with you… I have the freedom to do what I want… isnt that what America is all about?

I love people… its humanity I can’t stand!
hot herbal tea and a croissant… does that kind of defeat the point of a “coffee room”?
thanks so much! it is very logical… I used the same logic about the half truths making everyone innocent, but still messed up somewhere…keep em coming!
what about for those who dont live in NY??? There are Jews outside of the heilege state of NY and Baltimore! Anything online…since we all have some sort of connection to the internet if we are in the cr….
SO, 42, are you Pashuteh Yid in your other identity? I think we are all having identity crises here in the CR
LOL It didnt come out the same way it did on my screen… i think i will cry.. i spelled out words… never mind…I GIVE UP.. i guess i am not going to be a van gogh…i guess thats ok cuz i kind of like my ears.
Why are some postings not posted? Why is there such a delay for some and not others? I am not trying to be rude, just very confused. I submitted things in 2 hours ago and they are only just getting on there now, while something else I wrote got on there right away… ? ? ?
I couldnt read it still… why is your name in blue? Just curious…
I am still holding out!
Um, Joseph is a girl? otherwise, how can they be feminists???
Curious- how did you reach that conclusion???
Yashrus: HI!
curious: welcome… i wasnt mentioned either… 🙁
godaven.com is great too… You type in the city or search by state and can find shuls and their phone numbers or websites. They post the type/nussach of the shul, some zemanim…
I have one too… it makes me have extra kavana… i have to flip to the front of my siddur so it stops me from flying through….
wow u all impress me with your comp graphics….
so cool! the 50s are all numbers like 51 is 2! i am doing this on a laptop so really hard- no key pad! Let me try my hand at it…

THE COFFEE ROOM!!! (sorry too hard to put a C into squares…)?
can you please tell us the answer with the reasoning please chacham?
Does anyone know the point of this comic? I think i overanalyze it, but i just dont get the point and meaning!
I feel kind of out of it too… even though i have been here a while…
Sorry designing- it is different. the problem I faced earlier today is when transfering wordart and some graphics to a powerpoint computer it caused me some slight issues… some do not come through, while others came through perfectly! I happen to not really like the new microsoft so this is great for me… there are some of the same classics and some different ones. I havent had it that long to try all of them, but it will be easier to use if you make it on the same program that you will use and not transfer in between the two, as it might be lost. with the word/writer difference- almost none. inconsequential. You just need to remember to save it in the right formatting. And if you use the new microsoft word, it cant transfer to open office, but the older word programs can.
Wait, moishe and brooklyn are cousins? I thought they were the same person at points! I came on in the morning and there were so many new posts put up….
this is serious here: what do I do when someone is provoking my anger? I dont think I have done anything that horrific that this person, who I need to be in close contact with, will not talk to me unless it is to point out one of my problems/errors/mistakes.
I really mean it… I try to smile at them, thank them when they did something nice for me (rare)…someone gave me the advice to do favors for them, as ahava=giving and one gains love by giving to them.
Any suggestions?
(now, if you are the one doing it, please tell me why anonymously via the CR…it gets kind of weird to think that they may be reading this…)
mods- whats wrong with emailing and asking what the criteria are for posting? I think i aint got too bad of gramar- dont you think? ok, you know me better then that…i am just joking here! i think i got a 8/8~~~YAY!
Some simchas that I have gone to have made interesting arrangements. They had special tables listed as “family X” and family “Y” and several tables blank on each side. That way the rebetzins could sit near each other, planned, as they sat at the table marked “family” (they were told to) and all the family and friends from out of town were able to sit near each other without feeling weird.
The problem with making seating arrangements is that there are only so many seats at a table, and it is weird to have half a table. Many times there are “mixed tables” of different groups. The guest feels weird that the host didnt think about them that highly that they arent seated with so and so…
Shouldnt simchos be a time where we show ahavas chinam and try to befriend different people?
Sent to me via email… as you say your tehilim, you can have in mind a specific name of a soldier fighting!
As the members of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) battle Hamas terrorists
and Palestinian militants in Gaza, leading international Torah scholars
have launched a worldwide effort aimed at providing them with spiritual
support.
“Operation Tefillah, Torah & Troops,” which was launched by Rabbi Simcha
HaCohen Kook, the Chief Rabbi of Rehovot, Israel, and the Bostoner Rebbe
(Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Horowitz) of Har Nof, Israel, partners people from
around the world with soldiers in the IDF. Each person who takes part in
“Operation Tefillah, Torah & Troops” is paired with an Israeli soldier, and
is responsible to say tefillot (prayers), learn Torah, and do special acts
of chesed (kindness) on behalf of that soldier.
Rabbi Kook and the Bostoner Rebbe note that this concept is one that has
been a part of the Jewish people for thousands of years. When Moshe
Rabbeinu (Moses) led the Jewish people to war with the nation of Midyon,
for every person who went to battle, there was a designated person who was
responsible for praying and learning for him. Throughout his reign, David
HaMelech (King David) utilized this practice as well. During the war in
Lebanon in the summer of 2006, more than 50,000 people worldwide
participated in this initiative spearheaded by Rabbi Kook and the Bostoner
Rebbe, and facilitated in North America by the National Council of Young
Israel.
To participate in “Operation Tefillah, Torah & Troops” and receive the name
of an Israeli soldier who needs your prayers,
send an e-mail to the office of Rabbi Kook at [email protected].
To request the name of a soldier by phone or fax, call the
National Council of Young Israel at 212-929-1525 x100,
or send a fax to 212-727-9526.
BE A PART OF THIS!!
How do you do Ivrit on the computer? ICOT- do u work in computers or something?
With much gratitude for keeping up this site, we would like to give a warm yasher koach to all those moderators….
what are you talking about? I just went to their site and couldnt find anything about this… please clarify!
have fun here- many people sound scary and mean…they are like bears.. cute until you get them angry… just kidding… we all dont really know each other here but we pretend like we do…
never underestimate them, but then again dont drive yourself nuts! Sneaking suspicion- It will happen on January 19th- 119… 911 backwards…
never said I had all the seichel… just had some…. 😉
Um.. do I get partial credit for trying?
wait, there is the killer, the witness (who was there), someone who knows who did it (but not there) and someone innocent…right?
So C is the witness, while B wasnt there. A knows who did it and D is the killer.
It is a vicious cycle- have many kids so the oldest daughter raises the youngest. She becomes burnt out so by the time she has her own children, she needs the help of her oldest….and around and around we go… but I am not supporting one thing or another. Just ask a rav, talk to your spouse, and KNOW YOURSELF and your limits!
It is so true! I figure, give them low expectations of you.. and i learned this in school… right before the end of the semester do as well as you can and they give you a higher grade for improvement! (but dont be failing the whole semester…just not killing yourself)
We are old pals <wink> <wink>, right squeak? Hmm… how to describe you… hmm.
Height: taller then I am (I have always looked up to you, right?)
weight: ? I dont think you want me to list this… for your sake I will leave it out…
hair: still there
and on shabbos you wear dark clothes, right?
I think that sums you up, pretty much… and no, you dont wear a blue striped suit with a bow tie.
I am still waiting… any more news reporters out there?
But I overcome them and can get away from the CR for a few weeks at a time even…unlike some people here.
Wouldnt the family appreciate the fact that so many care for their lost son/brother? Wont it serve as a form of comfort? There to say amen to kaddish for the niftar- its a big zchus!
I dont know, i thought there were some classes involved but I can be wrong…
I think i should recognize you better then that.. you just arent the bow tie type…
Sometimes i dont have a chance to check up on CR… i face withdrawal symptoms but this is to prove to myself that I am not addicted… unlike some people here…ahhem squeak, joseph, asdfghjkl,qwertyuiop…. but when I get back I feel like its a new site!
Um, squeak, i think frum 33 is a guy. He said he went to kollel- I dont think raizel wright (however you spell it) will accept him.
