Brooklyn has a very large — and more importantly growing by leaps and bound — BT community.
Call again this evening. They make decisions later in the day and will probably suspend it.
Definitely Brooklyn. No matter your type, you’ll find your like.
Kapusta – Because its voluntary, with everyone benefiting from schar limud Torah that has no equal. The Torah haters have been yelling for over 50 years the Kollel system won’t work for the next generation. The Torah lovers keep learning while the haters keep repeating the same broken record for the better part of the century. The joke is on them.
Homeowner:
As long as Gedolei Yisroel’s cries for everyone to “purge television-viewing from their homes” is heard loud and clear, you can step on my toes.
Before it was incorporated into the City of Brooklyn in 1894, Flatbush described both the Town of Flatbush, incorporating a large swath of central Kings County extending east to the Queens County border, and the Village of Flatbush, formerly the heart of the current community. Many of the remaining early Dutch structures are in the Flatlands and Marine Park neighborhoods.
Flatbush was originally chartered as the Dutch Nieuw Nederland colony town of Midwout in 1651. Both names were used in the Dutch era, and Midwood was an alternative name for Flatbush into the early 20th century. Midwood now describes the area immediately south of Brooklyn College.
There was never a city of Midwood.
Would you have bought the song or cd if someone didn’t give it to you?
abba: With which comment?
cantor: Pravda would be a better choice.
RSRH: It’s certainly nice to be an or lagoyim, but that is far from a Yid’s mission in life. Far far better for him to be an or layidden.
Attorney fees are astronomical. No organization currently in existence can afford to pay for them on a wholesale basis.
The second issue is that by us Jews, issues need to be resolved in Beis Din. Non-Jewish court is, generally speaking, assur gamur.
As long as they aren’t drinking on the way home.
Who here was against college:
Rav Pam
Rabbi Avrohom Chaim Levin (Telz)
Rav Ahron Schechter
Rav Krupenia (Kaminetz)
etc etc etc
Many of the Talmidim from their Yeshivos went to college.
Post-secondary education is NOT a college education. It is simply a vocational training for the job in question. NO ONE here objected to that.
A lot its gonna help. Save you’re anger for something you can do something about.
hello: You’ve been cited Seforim HaKedoshim.
So edit it.
Here are some other non-college jobs and median salaries:
Air Traffic Controller 117,240
Elevator Install 63,620
Construction Mgr 73,700
Railroad Conductors 55,530
Dental Hygienist 62,800
Transp Inspector 50,390
There’s a whole list, and I’m not copying it all.
Tell that all to the 40+ gedolim listed:
zach – you can choose a lump sum payment (instead of annual) from the lottery.
Wolf:
What criteria did you use to determine which kid needs which yeshiva? And for a regular kid, with no particular issues, what criteria would you think should be used?
I said one of many examples. I’m not going to list all. I gave a good example.
My pilot on American Airlines — compensated about or over $200,000 a year — never went to college. (Plus he has over 200 lives in his hand every time he is flying.) This is just one of many examples.
Now that we’ve firmly established that college is unnecessary while lifelong Torah study is necessary and vital — and the MORE Torah study the better — much better — there isn’t anything else to discuss.
Automatic machine guns can also be used for good. Every TV owner should have one next to every TV. The Dining Room is a good place for both.
If you think they are dangerous, the TV is more dangerous.
If you’re in shidduchim, Brooklyn is the by far the best best location.

Shev, commercials can be disgusting. If you are watching tv for the commercials, you may as well get rid of your tv.

oomis, if you can admit “commercials can be disgusting”, how can you ever watch TV, considering the commercials you admit are disgusting?
AOM: One local precinct officer can make a final decision to approve a carry permit in NYC?
Some women are just plain evil, and have no one to blame but themselves.
pascha: That litigator is hardly acting Jewish. And his statistics are figments of his vivid imagination. The chutzpa for him to even claim such absurd figures. Real Jews speak to rabbonim, not “litigators”.
Going on a third or fourth date cost money for the restaurant or whatever as it is. Yet people go on the 3rd/4th date despite that cost.
So paying the shadchan for the date will be just another cost, and probably less than the date itself cost.
AC: It isn’t a matter of necessarily “not more at risk to go off”. Television viewing is an aveira gomur in of itself. Many of the reasons were previously mentioned on this very thread.

(Make sure you checkmate her.)
IOW, there is a bunch of overlapping between neighborhoods.
Let’s take some of the absurdity – mentioned right above – that goes for “abusiveness” by some of today’s cottage industry that pushes for the breakup and destruction of families – divorce.
Mood Swings –
Viola! He has “mood swings” he is abusive. He is sometimes happy and then all of a sudden something saddens him? Mood swing. Divorce!
He promised to clean out the garage — week after week after week after week — and never came through? Abusive husband! Divorce.
This is some of the drivel that passes off for abusiveness today by the haters of the institution of marriage, that wish to destroy families and innocent children by promoting completely unnecessary separation and divorce.

“women are more natrualy loyal, and thus are far less likely to run off with someone else, then are men.”
Every time a man runs off with some other woman, a woman is running off with someone else’s man. So the numbers must be about equal.
Monopoly.
Wolf: At least you, unlike a prusta goy, will have a chelek in Olam Haboa after your short stint where you insist you are headed.

But Mod80, despite your protestations to the contrary, you are a Talmid Chochom.
CSPAN (Congress) and the NYC Council channel show female congresswomen and representatives that aren’t dressed tznius (pants and shirt sleeve shirts.)
The Chofetz Chaim was upset when his wife purchased ONE lottery ticket, and promised all winning to Tzedaka, should he win.
RuffRuff – Why is she worse off than him?
fabie: Well said. There are many fools who wish to destroy Yiddisha marriages, when mostly they can be saved.
As far as television, about 40 of the leading Gedolei Yisroel wrote:
“It is incumbent upon every man and woman, every family and circle of friends, to purge television-viewing from their homes”
Here is one of many examples:
