The potential for יחוד and inappropriate relationships should suggest that it isnt a “frum” profession.
Get a door with a window. Problem solved.

There is a statue of the Maharal in Prague.
No one disputes that the Maharal was a real person.
The existence of a statue of the Maharal neither confirms or refutes the existence of a Golem.
The Wolf
Please define the meaning/definition of your close relationship.
Why? It’s “close” as I define it.
The Wolf
There are enough pennies in circulation that they will still be around for decades to come.
The Wolf
I have one sister and we’re very close.
The Wolf
Is sweeter then honey
OK, I agree it’s sweeter. Now give me my honey.
The Wolf
There’s no excuse to not be using a shadchan.
Period.
And if you happen to meet on your own and hit it off?

FWIW, when my wife and I got married (over 30 years ago), I told her that I had no problem if she wanted to keep her last name. She wanted to take mine, but if she didn’t, it would not have bothered me at all.
The Wolf
FWIW, when I travel, I have my backpack (filled with my camera gear) as my carry-on. I also have an under-seater in which I carry (among other things) my tallis and tefillin.
The Wolf
Well, here I am.
To be honest, I don’t have a great deal of experience in shooting video, as 99.99% (or more) of what I shoot is stills.
That being said, I’ve seen some very nice videos that were shot using DSLRs. It certainly could be done, but I’d consult with someone who actually works in this area before committing to an expensive camera and/or lenses.

If a person does not have b’chira, how can they be rewarded/punished for their actions?
The Wolf
For starting out, almost any entry level DSLR from a major brand will work out for you.
I started out in photography quite a while ago. My first DSLR was a Canon Xsi.
If you have questions about specific models or features, I’m more than happy to help.
The Wolf
I have absolutely no idea what this is. Should I consider this to be a case of “ignorance is bliss?”
The Wolf
Hashem created animals…Adam Harishon named animals…not the eggs. so Mistama the chicken came before the egg
And how do you know that the first chickens weren’t created hatching from their eggs?
The Wolf
I have no data to back this up, but my gut tells me that I’m in the older half of the posters in the Coffeeroom.

Wolf, as I asked you above, do you utilize “ma’am” with your female immediate family as you do “sir” with your male immediate family?
Interesting question. No, I can’t say that I do.
The Wolf
Terrible.
The Wolf
Wolf, I know people who said “Sir” and “Madame” to their kids sarcastically.
I never use the term sarcastically.
The Wolf
The formalized title is, indeed, a British thing. However, it’s common usage is not. I use “sir” with just about anyone outside my immediate circle of family and friends (and sometime even within… I’ve been known to say “Thank you, sir” to my sons when they do something for me). I even use it for kids, saying “Thank you, sir,” when they hold the door open for me or something else.

Being the shul’s Ba’al Kriah, I just stop and let everyone get it out of their systems, then continue.
That would drive me nuts. Fortunately, they don’t do it my shul, but if they did, I would just go on. Hopefully, eventually, they would get the message that I’m not putting up with that. 🙂
The Wolf
Who is calling someone else names?
The Wolf
If it was me, I apologize. I did not intend to call another person by any derogatory name.
The Wolf
Could there be anything more non judicial than a partisan hack, Patrick Leahy, who had already decided publicly that he would vote for impeachment
I’d be willing to bet that at least ninety of the Senators went into the process knowing how they would vote and had no intention on changing their vote no matter what evidence or argument was presented.
The Wolf
pretending leining is talking
It is, is it not?
Perhaps you can more properly classify it as singing or chanting, but those are both subcategories of speech.
The Wolf
If treif wine,
Thank you. I did not realize that the same barrels were used for wine and whiskey. Being a non-drinker, I never would have thought of that.
The Wolf
In our shul, they say the Misheberach of the Tosfas Yom Tov every shabbos.
My shul did that too, although they recently stopped it. I was actually very upset when they stopped it (despite the fact I talk during laining). Alas, my opinion (being worthless and stupid) was not asked when this change in practice was being considered.
The Wolf
Wolf, is it because they are all taking?
No. They’re usually silent.
The Wolf
I talk constantly throughout laining. No one in the shul seems to mind or complain.
The Wolf
For the extremely stupid, ignorant and non-drinkers among us (meaning, me), can someone break down exactly what the issue is? Please explain to it to me like I’m five.
Thank you.
