Not going to promise, but iy”h we should be wrapping up shooting tomorrow. Hopefully we should have something out for Purim. Thanks for the support!

I don’t know about other cities, but Hatzolah of Lakewood only accepts married members.

If you want to see a (presumably) non-drush explanation of the four yesodei habriah, see the Rambam Yesodei Hatorah end of perek gimmel/beginning of perek daled.

How did no one quote this yet???:

My belt holds my pants up, but the belt loops hold my belt up. I don’t know what’s really happening down there. Who is the real hero? – Mitch Hedberg

She didnt seem to indicate otherwise

She said she wouldn’t eat at his house.

Torah613Torah – My comment was said tongue-in-cheek. I didn’t think they actually used conch shells either.

This question makes no sense. Measuring cups by definition are used to measure a standard, agreed-upon measurement. That measurement could not have been agreed upon unless someone had a cup which held that amount, or was marked off to show that amount. Once you have one, you can make a million.

Unless you’re asking how people measured ingredients for recipes before they had standards for measurements. I presume they had to test proportions (5 horns of black pepper to 1 1/2 conch shells of baking soda) until they found something that worked, which is the same thing they do nowadays.

Become a shomer kishuin?

If you look in the Koren Tanach they have the “real” perakim printed on the side. I’m not sure what the origin of those are though.

Interestingly, in Tanach the perakim are insignificant and the pesukim are; while in Mishnayos the perakim are significant and the mishnayos are not.

See Tosafos in Bava Kama 17a about gadol Talmud torah (don’t remember the d”h at the moment).

oomis – Not to be motzi la’az, but you can’t put Helfgot in the same sentence. As Yossele. (See what I did there?) At best, he is a chazunishe singer.

Also, I wouldn’t say that Kossevitsky reached his notes effortlessly. Watch videos of him singing and you’ll see that his face turns beet red. In contrast, Yossele barely moved when he sang.

In no particular order,

Yahrtzeit (Rosenblatt) tiny edit

Tiher (Kvartin)

Kel Malei Rachamim (Moshe Koussevitzky)

The word “Ravrivayah” in Zaroh (Rosenblatt)

rationalfrummie – I don’t see how that conflicts with what I said, but if you want a nice explanation on that, see Ohr Gedalyahu on Chanuka (the one about Torah Sheba’al Peh). It’s a long piece, but somewhere in there he talks about this.

oomis, VERY well-said. There is no such thing as true morality. For us Jews, eating pork and marrying gays is as immoral as murder. Obviously there is a concept of mitzvos kalos and chamuros, but there is no external form of “morality” playing any role.

Lawrence Kellerman uses the human race’s general condemnation of murder as one of his four approaches to proving there is a god, in his book Permission to Believe.

I don’t see how ????? ???? ????? ????? applies here. Unless you think he wanted actual water from the ???.

Chazon Ish in Bnei Braq had the same thing over Shabbos.

I would eat it with my beans

I would eat it wearing jeans

I would eat it with my fries

I would eat it with some spies

While the cops get their sketch up

I would eat it WITH MY KETCHUP

I think Weiss geirim should only be allowed to marry other Weiss geirim.

I wrote them a letter:

Stark Reality

So remember when you said that Max Stark had a list of enemies a mile long? Well I guess he had more friends than enemies, and now it looks like your list of enemies is two miles long.
