Shticky Guy

Crazybrit: my spelling was deliberate. Both my puns were intentional.

BTGuy: I have a friend who likes european food so he’s always Russian over there when he gets Hungary. Once in a restaurant he Czeched the menu and ordered Turkey. When he was Finnished he said there’s Norway he could eat anything else and he did not remember Havana good meal like that for a long Thaim. He said “had you told me we were in South America I would not have Bolivia. Not since eating in a restaurant in the Tower of Pisa have we had such a lean meal. I’m Ghana make sure Togo and tell all my friends and they are sure to listen to me as they are all very practical and Praguematic. Though one of them is a star gazer and usually finds eating out is astronomical”.

Longarekel why in that rashi that we talked about does he say the makka was for a ‘reva chodesh’ when the pasuk says 7 days? Besides being an unusual expression it is not the same, as months have 29 or 30 days so a quarter of that is more than 7 days.

I’m sure Obelix is Roman around somewhere. Maybe he found it too boaring here… ☺

What about when I passed a sign on the highway that read ‘Delays expected until July 2013’; I was worried. I didnt have a lulav and esrog or matzos with me.

Hey Mod 80 is back! Hi and so great to see you. How long you sticking around?

You shouldnt be on this thread. Its not for serious people… ! Please post something on my “http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/mod-80-are-you-still-around” thread. Thanx a lot! You’re the best.

For those of us who have not seen it yet, what was the mistake?

To my (our) dear friend AYC. With what should I begin? How should i start? To say its not the same here any more, besides being the understatement of the year, also appears a little selfish because that seems to show I’m only thinking about us and not you. But its praise to you when I say in what way its not the same here. The first thing that hit me about you was that it was always Am Yisrael Chai who answered queries that posters asked. It was always Am Yisrael Chai who provided links to other threads that posters asked for. It was always Am Yisrael Chai who sympathized with posters. Thats the human side, which shows character. On the other side is intellect which is g-d given so not really praiseworthy, but oh how we miss you on so many topics where you provided answers to riddles, puzzles, tanach and halachic queries etc. If I were you, I would stay away for quite a while and then return under a new name to begin afresh. Sure we might realize it was you but I (we) would not say anything, and the mods wont let any reference to AYC thru. Hatzlocha whatever you decide! 3rd time lucky…

We should start a thread, and each member will write to AYC a note, or comment on how much they miss him, or await his return, or apology or whatever it is. And you will foward it to him. Maybe like this it can help out his long awaited return.

But also forward to him the many threads already written on this very topic. These threads contain compliment after compliment for him. Even if he does not plan to return soonthey could be nice for him to read. If I have missed any, please add them below:

Longarekel: the rashi that says each makka was a quarter of a month is not in shemos 8, 25 but in shemos 7,25 which is based on that pasuk that says 7 days.

NEW QUESTION: From where do we know that one getting married should check out the kalla’s brothers? You must bring a source! (Clue: Its not Lavan – unless you find a source. I couldnt find the source with lavan but found the source someplace else).

Founder and president of the CR welcome wagon!

Welcome back president. Missed you. OK, where’s that party?

Trivia threads are no fun, because people just make things up.

Which people, exactly?

Ignore him, kapusta. Its just poppa making things up…

The Small shtetl had a shortage of men of marriageable age. So when the Choson’s horse and wagon arrived from a distant town, there were two mothers-in-law waiting for him, each claiming him as their own. The Rabbi was called and he heard vociferous and heated arguments from both sides. After contemplating what to do, he smiled and said “You cannot agree on this so we will cut him in half and you will have to share him.” The first woman said “That is a wonderful idea. I agree wholeheartedly”. The second woman said “No, give him to the other lady”. The Rabbi stood up and announced, “The lady willing to cut him up she is the real mother-in-law!” ☺

Q – Why does Shmuelly Boteach think J-esus was Jewish?

A – He lived at home until he was 30.

He went into his father’s business.

His mother thought he was G-d.

The Jewish Olympics

After reading through the list of this year’s Olympic events, it was found that the Olympic Committee has made some significant changes. Some of the less-publicized events of particular interest to the world’s Jewish communities, that you may have missed, may be the following:

Oyga Vault:

A sound-enhanced Pole Vault competition, the vaulter must clear the bar then yell “Oy” upon hitting the foam pad below. Any heights cleared without an “Oy” will be considered a fault. Points will be added for more enthusiastic exclamations of “Oy,” such as “Oy vay iz mir”

Synchronized Swimming:

Taking place in an Olympic sized mikvah, this event is sure to make a splash.

Team Handball:

The goal here is simple: to create the ideal matzah ball. Each team will cook a two liter bowl of matzah ball soup, from scratch. The three winning batches will be fed to the athletes recovering in the infirmary. The toughest matzah balls will be used in the shot put competition.

Triathlon:

This year’s Triathlon will involve one pound of shnitzel and a serving of tsimmes. The athlete must cook the shnitzel and tsimmes (first part), say a bruchah before eating this kosher meal (second part), and then run a marathon (third part). If the contender forgets to say the bruchah, he/she will be disqualified, but will still be required to run the marathon.

In addition to the aforementioned events, this year’s Games will feature some experimental, non-medal competition:

Bagel Toss:

A kosher version of horseshoes, the winner is he/she that first lands a bagel on each of the seven branches of the chanukiah.

Balance Beam:

The accountant or bookkeeper that balances my mother’s checkbook in the shortest amount of time will be declared winner.

Challah Chap:

How long does it take you to remove all the chometz from your house before Pesach? In this competition, each participant must rid a miniature shul of all of its challot, and replace them with matzot.

Decathlon:

Commonly referred to as the world’s greatest athlete, this year’s decathlete is actually a minyan of ten daveners. Each member of the group will begin davening with ten volumes of Mishnah on his back. Every minute, another volume will be added until a team member can no longer angle the body enough for a complete daven. While yeshiva buchers in Jerusalem are favored to win this event, other teams have promised not to bow down to the opposition – which could be a problem for this particular event.

Dream Team:

This year’s Dream Team will not consist of the USA’s highly favored men’s basketball team, but rather, an overpriced team of psychoanalysts that will have three, one hour office visits to analyze and interpret the dreams of this year’s Olympic hopefuls.

Naches Shlep:

Designed for bubbies and zaydehs, the proud grandparents will have two minutes to boast about their einiklach.

Oh wow. It looks like iced tea has come back into fashion after a hundred year sleep. Which mod was it that kissed you?

Scissors you ARE funny. Very funny. How can I possibly forget – the thread that had me literally rolling on the floor the most was ken zayn’s

Do you still get childish impulses to do silly things?

in which you showed your true nature! You are such a panic its unreal. You should be in the circus. Tell us more!

BTGuy: “Reading threads….. sewing confusion “

lol. You should join the CR sewing/knitting club as proposed on

looking to start Boro Park knitting group

arwsf I’m a geek. I used to have a mental image of posters and their views. But now I’m too busy BH and there’s too many posters. But I know you have a mischievous streak and a difficult life from your posts.

For the old-timers (and newish-timers) here, a CR trivia thread would be fun.

Your wish is my command, kapusta!
