The FrumguyParticipant
And I always thought that they did the Chesed Lishmah.
The FrumguyParticipantFor all of you that don’t have a problem with fast davening because that’s what working folk need, do you mean to say that you feel that getting to work on time is more benficial to your Parnossah than pouring out your heart slowly with extra Kavannah to Hashem?
The FrumguyParticipantIn order to allow my son to read it, my wife first goes through each issue with scissors to extricate all indecent photos.
The FrumguyParticipantBeside the standard “these are necessary preparation days for Rosh Hashanah” you should know that I notice you’re not alone. Look around during these two weeks and you’ll see that many men who you meet seem to be sleep-deprived.
So the best chizuk I can afford at this time is probably “you’re in good company with the rest of K’lal Yisroel.
Wishing all a K’siva V’chasima Tova for 5772.
The FrumguyParticipantPlease give an example or two to what you are referring.
The FrumguyParticipantWhen you say “luxury for the rich” I suppose you mean rich PARENTS.
The FrumguyParticipantBoys’, girls’ or co-ed?
The FrumguyParticipantHe is truly hilarious without being insulting.
The FrumguyParticipantI believe it is illegal for a non-emergency vehicle to sport cherry lights and/or a siren.
The FrumguyParticipantQuite excellent, The Goq – milking it for all you’ve got!
The FrumguyParticipantWhere in the sticks do you live that there is still home delivery of milk in bottles?

My wife thought the same thing.
September 5, 2011 10:30 pm at 10:30 pm in reply to: What type of Shul do you prefer and why? #806483The FrumguyParticipantBais Medrash because it’s quiet and respectful and a Kavannah-filled, slow davening.
The FrumguyParticipantI 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.
The FrumguyParticipantOh, I forgot – I daven Nusach Ashkenaz.
It truly breaks my heart, Jonathan B, to hear that.
The FrumguyParticipantGet a job as a clown in a circus.
The FrumguyParticipantConsider it done.
The FrumguyParticipantI’m still here.
In addition to looking like a steroid-taking mushroom, I know many men in shul who did indeed complain about having gotten soaked this past Shabbos.
Why would giving my opinion about a raincoat constitute “Lashon Hora?” Is this in the Sefer Chofetz Chaim?
The FrumguyParticipantAs I get older, the taste and feeling of a donut just eaten stays with me longer.
The FrumguyParticipantI, on the other hand, find it relaxing and reminiscent of my childhood. Is it a Cholov Yisroel truck?
The FrumguyParticipantCertainly Bob Turner – a true mentsch.
The FrumguyParticipantNot to mention the P’sak of numerous Gedolim on the Chiyuv to vote.
The FrumguyParticipantHappy Birthday – (singing): How old are you now?
The FrumguyParticipantOpen for just one season: The New Roxy in Loch Sheldrake. Anyone out there?
The FrumguyParticipantWhy would the Moderators allow such unnecessary and confusing posts?
The FrumguyParticipantI feel bad for you, Goq. Everyone should enjoy the wonderful relationship I have with my older brother – better than when we were younger.
The FrumguyParticipantDid I miss the Beatles!!
The FrumguyParticipanttorahanytime.com will be running shiurim without charge – just a suggested donation. Plenty of wonderful(?) inspiration available on Tisha B’av – Mi K’omcha Yisroel.
The FrumguyParticipantIt seems that the Modern Orthodox will attempt to use all Kulos when dealing with Halacha. They hold the minimum z’man for Motzoei Shabbos, the smallest size kippah, kulos regarding food as was mentioned above (chalav stam, pas palter, etc.) and women with heterim in dress that sometimes don’t really exist. In short, they take the “easy way out.”
The FrumguyParticipantA big Yasher Koach to apushatayid for trying to do what’s right. What would be so bad if the tzibbur spent another five minutes pouring out their hearts to Hakodesh Baruch Hu? Is there anything more important than talking to the Borei Olam at least as clearly and slowly as one would speak to the President,l’havdil?
I also love that incident with the $50 offer.
The FrumguyParticipantIf your main point is because you’d like to daven at your own, slower pace, then why not slow down the minyan to a comfortable speed. I’ve done that at the amud and many mispallelim have expressed their gratitude for being able to “catch their breath.”
The FrumguyParticipantJuly 17, Habah Aleinu l’Tovah and Hashem Yeracheim.
The FrumguyParticipantNo, Thursday night is not allowed according to what I’ve read.
The FrumguyParticipantI quite sure one is supposed to wait until tomorrow morning.
The FrumguyParticipantIf one does shave on Erev Shabbos, can one also shave Motzoei Shabbos?
The FrumguyParticipantWhat about shaving on Motzoei Shabbos?
The FrumguyParticipantI truly appreciate what you say. I’m speaking about coming to shul on time or even before the starting z’man and already finding someone in your seat.
The FrumguyParticipantIn the recent dafei yomi Gemara, we learned that the “strings” can be almost any color. Should those that use supposed “techeiles” be attacked if they chose to wear blue-dyed strings?
The FrumguyParticipantTo cherrybim:
Are you serious to ask me to change shuls or even move because someone is inconsiderate?? That’s yet another case of blaming the innocent victim!!
Also, if I am in shul already and someone is searching for a seat, I can (as I have done numerous times in the past) offer him my Makom Kavuah as part of Hachnosas Orchim — I’m speaking about someone who comes to shul before a regular mispalel and without inquiring plants himself in someone’s seat.
The FrumguyParticipantAm Yisrael Chai:
I’m fully aware of ADD and the like (although many in the scientific community don’t hold from it) but this is going a bit too far with dan l’chaf Zechus. Even if it were true, I’m also entitled to a disturbance-free Tefillah. If someone does suffer from these maladies, perhaps they can pace the lobby or daven in a shul with other ADD’s. To pace up and down the aisle is still inconsiderate.
It’s the same with looking around “to gain inspiration.” Look around other places as much as you want but don’t interrupt my Kavanah. Again, you’re pushing dan l’chaf zechus to the max at another’s expense.
The FrumguyParticipantWho runs DKTY (and what does it stand for)? How do I get in touch with the camp?
The FrumguyParticipantNo gunpowder, cap guns or fireworks of any kind. A Freilichen Purim!
