It will be my honour
mikehall12382MemberIf anyone wonders why we are stuck in Galus, just read through this thread…
We as Jews are our own worst enemy and sadly probably deserve what we have gotten since the beginning of time…
mikehall12382MemberFeif Un…so by visiting this site, I am contributing to the parnassah of the staff of YWN…
Helping someone be self sufficient (by supporting their work) is the highest form of tzedakah according to the RAMBAM…
Thus by visiting sites that people earn a living from, I am helping them be self sufficient
Hence, using the internet is a noble thing to do and a big Mitzvah…
Yes, No, Maybe?
May 23, 2012 8:40 pm at 8:40 pm in reply to: Video of Internet Asifa at CitiField – Full Video Feed for Satellite Locations #876232mikehall12382Memberso you are posting a link to an online video, talking about how bad the internet is….am I the only one who finds this funny?
mikehall12382MemberI’m just trying to point out how silly the whole thing is.
To say the whole Internet is assur, well I don’t buy it. How is loging on to a site like torahanytime.com and listening to the vast amount of shuirs wrong? How is it wrong to check out the OU’s site for updates on kashrus assur?
I’m not one who believes that banning is the answer. Educate, use filters, keep your computer in a public room and monitor Internet activity…
That is the answer
But those at citi field will say trying to justify it is only my yetza harrah talking
Which it is not, or maybe it is, no its not, well….
May 22, 2012 6:29 pm at 6:29 pm in reply to: What has been the Response in your communites about the Internet Ban?Ban? #875700mikehall12382MemberIn order to comply with the ban; I am now forbidden to listen to shuirs on torahanytime.com, look up the latest kosher food news on oukosher.org or book flights/hotels online taking advantage of discounted online rates….Regardless, I think I still will 🙂
mikehall12382Membertahini-VERY WELL SAID
mikehall12382Memberwho cares what you define yourself as or what you wear?
“That which is despicable to you, do not do to your fellow, this is the whole Torah, and the rest is commentary, go and learn it.”
mikehall12382MemberMaybe they think they are a superhero and using their jacket as a cape?
mikehall12382MemberWhen you say mixed dancing, are you referring to different styles of dancing? For instance starting off with a waltz, then moving onto ballroom dancing, adding a bit of tap and ending the song with some ballet moves? Maybe even adding the twist for good measure?
Because if this is the issue, although it may look a bit funny I don’t see how it concerns you. If you feel more comfortable sticking with one genre of dance you should feel free to do so.
mikehall12382MemberIf he was so concerned about the possibility of sitting next to a women, than he should have
Bought an extra seat near him thus preventing having a neighbor
Driven down
Fly a private jet with his family
mikehall12382MemberI am a Zionist and proud of it. There is nothing anybody in this world could say to me that will change my mind, not even for a second. I support the IDF and all the brave men and women who serve in it. Be it Haredi or one from the most secular kibbutz you can find.
mikehall12382MemberIs lawn bowling just as bad as bowling in an alley?
mikehall12382Memberfind a new group of people to carpool with, or bring a chop liver sandwich with lots of onions with you.
mikehall12382MemberShticky Guy…I can’t take credit for it…It was passed on to me in an email and thought is was worth sharing. Especially when it seems that friction among all Yidden seems at an all time high.
mikehall12382MemberMy wife lost about 15 pounds in 3 month with Weight Watchers. She felt the program was well designed and easy to follow without sacrificing too much of her favorite foods….She also purchased some of their snacks which was certified OU…now she’s bugging me to go on 🙂 hope this helps!
mikehall12382Member” I wouldn’t complain if he ends up with a good job with a kipa on his head…”
instead of “not complaining” about this outcome, maybe it should be encouraged….
Our Yeshivas need options, real options for those who are cut out to be in Kollel their entire lives.
mikehall12382MemberGo Expos
April 13, 2012 1:50 pm at 1:50 pm in reply to: My Dream this past Shabbos (Rishon Shel Pesach) #867534mikehall12382Memberinteresting dream, however not all wealth or those who have accumulated it are all bad…Major donations from the wealthy have allowed yeshivas, hospitals and other essential services to continue operating
mikehall12382Memberfed ben fed…well said…better to teach them young how to handle the outside world so they will know how to deal with it when they are in it….assuming of course that they leave yeshiva/kollel one day and work…
mikehall12382Membermaybe this is none of your business and you should be concern with your learning?
mikehall12382Memberthis thread is a SHANDA!
mikehall12382Memberbatter up!
mikehall12382MemberIf it’s kosher for pesach, then why not?
In 1980 there was no cell phones, internet email etc…should I abandon all those as well because I didn’t grow up with them?
mikehall12382MemberThe Library, Zoo, Museums, Mall , Sports are all ACCEPTABLE!
If they aren’t someone should tell all the Frum people I’ve seen at baseball games, the zoo and malls this past week.
For those who say it’s assur, well I say keep it to yourself and let the “sinners” worry about themselves.
So enjoy the weather and have some fun with your kids…show them a good time…Chag Sameach!
mikehall12382MemberJew on Jew hatred at it’s finest on this thread…
April 4, 2012 5:15 pm at 5:15 pm in reply to: Why dont high school girls no how to spell and right ? #866146mikehall12382MemberYou don’t need to spell to raise a family 🙂
mikehall12382Member“Why drink Coca Cola at all. The company is a big sponsor of lifestyles that are not for anyone, least of all for yidden.”
“Loyal jew- So are most foods! For one thing liquer…. And we use it for a miztvah!!!!:(“
EXCELLENT ARGUMENT!
mikehall12382Member“Do they become moody? Do they still cook?”
They better still cook…
mikehall12382MemberI eat pizza with chop stix, but sushi with a knife and fork…go figure.
mikehall12382Membermikehall12382MemberSo, basically it’s all or nothing….If you can’t devout your entire day to learning, then better to not learn at all…
mikehall12382MemberOne thing that I feel is missing is more sport leagues in Frum communities. It would be nice if there was a soccer, baseball or basketball team your son could join.
Completive sports is a great way to get into shape, teach children how to work within a group for the good of the team. It teaches self discipline and working towards a goal…
I know there are several Jewish Leagues in the NJ area that is very popular. Maybe it is worth looking into?
It would be amazing if they could combine it with learning.
March 7, 2012 2:44 pm at 2:44 pm in reply to: Tefilla for teens in crisis – need your ideas to improve it #857909mikehall12382MemberSilentOne…The strongest Tefilla are the ones that come from the heart…wonderful job
mikehall12382MemberFacebook is also used as a marketing tool by many large companies. It’s away to keep business in touch with their consumers. My company uses it as a marketing tool and we have had some measure of success…
Yeshiva world news also has a facebook page (in case you didn’t notice the F in a blue box icon on the top of this page”
Like everything else it can be used for good and bad, you decide
mikehall12382MemberI’ll sit back and watch the fire works!
mikehall12382MemberWolfishMusings….scandalous!
mikehall12382Membersoliek….I agree you can’t push people into different occupations. But you are correct, Therapist should be seen as a perfect legitimate occupation and the frum world can certainly use more frum professionals that people can turn to for help…
mikehall12382MemberIf your reason for not wearing jeans is because it is goyish, then the same argument can be made about eating chocolate, since it was first discovered by the native population in Mexico
mikehall12382MemberTheft is theft, regardless if the artist is Jewish or not…
mikehall12382MemberI edited my kids version of Dr Seuss’ book Green Eggs and Ham…
I changed it to Purple Eggs and Schmaltz herring..
mikehall12382MemberWhat about ??? and ???? Although, we all know who did what to whom…
mikehall12382MemberI have term…it’s very affordable and allows me to sleep well at night knowing my family will be taken care of…that is priceless!
mikehall12382Memberother than that, I had no problem with it…
mikehall12382MemberAll in All I thought it was well done and certainly made Jews look very good…
mikehall12382MemberI actually think Wolf is one of the more logical and brighter posters on here. His sarcasm and dark sense of humour is very entertaining.
He gets it!
mikehall12382MemberFor one thing it’s time that parents stop demanding their son’s only marry girls whose father promise to support them…
There are plenty of eligible good girls who can’t get dates because they don’t come from money; and would require their future husbands to work…for many this is a deal breaker….
This is how it works…as they say; you have to pay to play!
February 10, 2012 7:00 pm at 7:00 pm in reply to: Memoir called "Unorthodox" and its effect on us #868504mikehall12382Membermsseeker…you should read;
“The Garden of Peace: A Marital Guide for Men Only”
mikehall12382MemberI’m technically worth more dead than alive!
mikehall12382MemberHe has been called an Apikores here more times than I can count…I guess he believes the hype!
