I worked an overnight shift (8 p.m. to about 6 a.m.) for a few years. In fact, I was working it while I dated my wife and after we were engaged. I worked nights all week; on Friday mornings I would go home, daven, sleep an hour or two, then drive to NY for Shabbat. My kalla would leave me a shopping list, so I’d walk down Avenue M and pick stuff up. I took a nap in the afternoon with the family I was staying with, then walk to the subway to meet her when she came home from work. We had a normal Shabbat and Sunday, then I’d drive straight to work from NY on Sunday night.
During the week I would find an early minyan, then go to sleep. I also tried to take a nap in the afternoon. My eating schedule during the week was breakfast in the early afternoon, dinner before I left, and a lunch type meal in the middle of the night.
What is a capstone?
why cant a smoker be a ben torah??
Because he’s knowingly violating an issur d’oreita.
Because he’s putting himself at risk for heart disease.
Because he’s putting himself at risk for hypertension.
Because he’s putting himself at risk for emphysema.
Because he’s putting his family at risk for all these diseases from second hand smoke.
Because he’s putting himself at risk for an early death, making his wife an early widow, and his children early orphans.
I hope this answers your question.

One can switch from nusach Ashkenaz to nusach Sfard. I did so myself, under the direction of our rav here on our yishuv. (There are no nusach Ashkenaz shules here.) I did not switch my pronunciation, as he told me that most people who switch end up saying the words incorrectly.
Avhaben, why would you ask your question here? Don’t you have a Rav to ask?
You want to send them so they can learn about the beautiful mitzva of yishuv ha’aretz, and how much they will be missing out on by not living here.
Patri – no, some don’t light for each child. (Most do – I never met anyone who doesn’t, but I know that minhag exists.)
I’m raising my hand over here – my mother only lights two, and has been doing that for as long as I can remember.
I said it’s not tznius for a non-male to join a yeshivish site.
What you should have said is “In my humble opinion it’s not tznius for a non-male to join a yeshivish site.” Unless, of course, you can provide a cite for your statement.
And yes, I know the name I’m using is gender-neutral but I am male.
You say you are male, but the advantage of anonymity on the internet is that you can say whatever you want.
The pictures were from Thursday afternoon.
And you say moving out of E”Y is a ‘curse’? Well, not for me!
And how many mitzvot do you miss out on now that you moved away?
We enjoyed our humous on Shabbat, and beans in the cholent.
Our neighbor took the “pesach roll” mix and made a schlissel “challah” from it. We even took pictures.
