    Shalom Chaver, thanks for the clarification. I actually realized this myself as I was saying these words by slichos. It is written as ??? ???? ???? and does make more sense that way. Now I don’t understand why he would’ve switched the order originally….

    Newsreader, I just looked at the “jacket” of the tape again and there’s one correction: He says ????? ?????’? instead of ?????.

    By the way, you probably know this but wherever I wrote ?? ??? or ?? ????, he really says ?’??? or ?’????.

    Gut Voch and A Gut Gebentcht Yor!

    Mazel Tov, Newsreader!

    you want to know how I have the lyrics? Simple! I have the tape and the “jacket” that came with it! (I happen to be a big fan of Yonasan Schwartz’s songs)

    Shalom Chaver – i always knew there were slightly different versions out there, and it’s interesting to hear how they came about. But I don’t see how ??? ???? ???? makes any sense!

    and newsreader – i’m a bit confused! are you chassidish or not? cuz this is a very chassidishe song, (some lines won’t rhyme if you sing them the litvishe way) but chassidim usually don’t sing songs under the chuppah!

    Health, I was very much aware that I am supporting mdd’s claim that it is not assur. However, I was hoping s/he would realize that the reaction was NOT extreme based on the STRONG RECOMMENDATION of gedolim.

    sam2, Rav Falk is very clear, and careful to specify when he is writing a halacha, and when he is writing a recommendation.

    I think that this excerpt from Rav Falk’s book is the perfect example.

    my take, are u talking about viznitz BP? I know that for navi, at least, they use COPIES of pages of the navi, but not a navi itself. (I personally don’t understand it, but whatever…)

    always here, that means you don’t read schmutter’s articles! he always talks about how (for instance) the readers are in middle of pesach cleaning and he’s in middle of a chanuka party (or something to that effect)

    I think Hamodia is very strict about getting their articles way in advance…

    Aishes Chayil, I did not mean to make light of the minhag. In fact, my family keeps this minhag as well! (If a situation would come up where we would want a shidduch but the prospective shver would have the same name as the boy or the shvigger same name as the girl, we would ask our rav… I’ve heard stories where people added a name to the girl and she’s called by her new name for this reason!) My point is (and this if for shlishi as well) that there are so many people who treat this and various minhagim as “???? ??? ????” that HALEVAI they would treat the Aseres Hadibros with the same stringency. i.e. Lo Sirtzach – don’t embarrass others! etc…

    about eating with hands, i heard a cute vort “minhag avoseinu, byadeinu!”

    about not having a shver with same name as you – i think it’s from R’ Yehuda Hachassid. I’ve heard it said – halevai he would have written the Aseres Hadibros!

    about eating in the sukkah shemini atzeres – many chassidim do it.

    It must be so painful to be going through all that. B”H I can’t say I understand you, but I can wish you that Hashem should give you the strength to overcome all your challenges. Though I do have to speak up in defense of your teachers, that a very MINUTE percentage (if any) of teachers want to be cruel. They simply have no clue and MUST be informed that something is going on. This?way, they’ll know to be more sensitive and to overlook certain behaviors/absences/incomplete assignments, etc… (In other words, please don’t judge the teachers either.) Moreover, you may just be surprised to discover in one or more of them a very compassionate heart and listening ear. Also, don’t worry about a shidduch. If you’re so afraid that others will find out – think about it – Is this something you’ll want (or be able) to hide from your prospective spouse iy”H? NO! He’ll have to find out ANYWAY! So why exert all this energy and give up on your menuchas hanefesh and possibly avoid getting proper help to keep it a secret? Please share it with those who need to know and are able to help you. It’ll be a load off your shoulders. Hatzlacha Rabba!

    I would just admire these people for being careful, and realize that it’s got nothing to do with me personally.

    One line that you wrote should be clarified “even though the whole ride is less than 30 seconds.”

    if a situation should be avoided because of yichud, it doesn’t matter if it’s thirty seconds or thiry minutes!

    Wow! I’m amazed how everyone got so hung up on the few little words I posted. I was actually very careful about the wording (making sure not to call ronsr an apikorus, rather saying that the concept of calling something a coincidence is apikorsus). I actually once learned that there is no true apikorus today. People only pretend to be…. (?????? ????)

    “There’s a big earthquake in NY every century or so, there’s a big hurricane every decade or so.”

    This is a little reminiscent of ??? ????? where they made the ????? that the sky falls down every 1656 years, and they therefore must build a pillar to support it…!! True, Hashem has everything planned out since “day 1” and for that reason alone – NOTHING IS A COINCIDENCE – not the events themselves, not the times they happen, and not the sequence in which they happen. And yes, there’s a message in every event, but none of us can profess to know what exactly it is. Therefore, we should each introspect and take our own personal lessons. ??????!

    I think the answer is simple, like many posters have already said. Ask a shadchan or someone uninvolved to “redd” it to her!

    Now, I’d like to post my own dilemma: I was about to get engaged to a boy with mild mental issues, but then he told us about his problem, and we were told by our Rav to stay away. Since you, IrFlatbush, have gone through a similar situation, can you give me some chizuk that we made the right decision? What is it like to be in a relationship with one who has mental issues?
