I though this was a well-known fact — didn’t even need to state it.
As Brooklyn, in general, is less expensive than Five Towns / Queens shopping.
You’re still one of the most entertaining, humorous posters in The Coffee Room.
In which shtieble were they “preying”? I hope they made up the minyan.
For every ten miles per hour of your speed, there should be one car length.
Are we allowed to name names? This sounds as though there is tachlis – to help in not hiring such photographers.
Had they gone with the TRUE date of the Siyum, which is really Thursday, there would be no problems or worries. Why make it a day earlier?
I think that the certificate itself is without charge. Only if you want it framed & laminated is there a $36 charge. Please check it out.
It’s more efficient when you need to be on the Lower East Side. Sometimes the Brooklyn Bridge is closed so you have no choice.
I believe the toll at the tunnel is more than $5. I only use it when:
1) I need it for work
2) I’m running late
Hatzlacha with all your travels.
Whatever Hashem sends us is for the good.
At the end of an opera, there usually is a finale with the star of the cast (usually the women in opera are “slightly plump”) singing the last song. So the expression “it ain’t over till the fat lady sings” means that the end of the performance (or anything else) is signaled by “the fat lady singing.”
When our Maggid Shiur is not able to be in the Beis Medrash, we use Skype to hook up with him to learn.
I put mine under my tallis bag until the end of davening or until I can get to the back of shul to throw it out in the garbage can.
I also find it quite disgusting (for lack of a better word) for mispalelim to leave it on the table to have it glaring me in the fase during davening and many times “forget” to take it out after davening.
Yasher Koach for bringing it up L’Ma’an Kedushas Beis Hakneses.
The Siyum Hashas – not even close. I put in 7 1/2 years for this moment.
We try to emulate the Malachei Hashareis during our tefillah. They are described in Nevi’im as standing on one foot.
So why do you refer to it as “his” chair – it’s the company’s chair?
Getting older is always better than the alternative!
Baby fingers are smaller in size than lady fingers. Labriyoot!
No matter how my teeth, stomach, etc. feels, I’m glad to do the Ratzon Hashem.
A Good Mo’ed
Flatbush Dude: It was sincerely the latter. I really DO agree with you. Have a Good Mo’ed.
A BIG Yasher Koach for noticing. Have a Good Mo’ed.
I’m very makpid to keep my tzitzis off the floor – usually across my lap.
I was thinking the same thing. It’s quite outrageous for such a high “handling / shipping” fee (I guess they like “handling” your money). And who said Agudah isn’t going to be making any money on this??
Gut voch, gabi:
I assume that this happened in shul today. I’m quite sure that nobody in shul had a gun(it would be muktzeh) to anyone’s head forcing them to eat. This same dilemma used to happen in my house and when I saw how upset my wife was for not having a “family seuddah”, I stopped eating at the kiddush, just wished the ba’al simcha Mazal Tov and walked home to a delicous home-cooked meal with my wife and children. Some things are more important.
Titanic was not only a motion picture production. It was a real news event way back when. I’m sure the YWN was referring to the original Titanic and not to a Hollywood production.
Ask parents of your son’s classmates. Most of them have already gone through this.
You should have a lot of nachas and Brocha from your Bar-Mitzvah!
How do you expect to get in touch with a prospective employer through The Coffee Room?
It is the distributive law – remember good ole ninth grade algebra?
Hashem never sends us “dreary days” – all days are for the best!
His family went to Mesivta Tiferes Yerushalayim. I know that two of his brothers are musmachim of R’ Moshe, z”l. I believe he, too, went there and had several “shtellers” in the U.S. His mispalelim told him how hilarious his “droshos” were and he decided to make a better living at comedy, unfortunately.
I agree with you – I think that most Gematrias these days are stretching it too far. I have yet to be impressed with one.
They finally caught on and fixed it. Too bad. Anyone out there get this Metziah?
I once heard that a Ba’al Teshuva went over to tell R. Noach Weinberg z”l that he was a huge rock and roll fan before becoming frum and some habits are just too hard to break – he can’t stop listening to it. What should he do? Rav Weinberg laughed (as he was prone to do) and said he is 100% allowed to continue listening in order to “keep his sanity” and to help him grow in Yiddishkeit.
Did you see what Israel’s government might promise for the exchange? Talk about being caught between a rock and a hard place. Hashem Yerachem and it should be for the best for all of Klal Yisroel.
Positive on “Pintele Yid.” Now what?
