Is this a kid in the Stoliner day camp? Has the day camp there (I think it’s called Camp Sheves Achim) begun yet?
Reb_Motcha, Camp Sheves Achim day camp has begun. It must be from there.
9 year old child.
Reb_Motcha, Yes. It is a 9 year old.
Joseph, are you there, and do you know the kid?
(And yes, to answer the question you asked me a few weeks ago, I am indeed from the Kehila you asked me about, which means that I guess now you know who I am. I don’t know who you are, though, unless your last name begins with the letter G.)
Reb_Motcha, I live in the area, but am not there. My son goes to the day camp. I got the additional information from an external source.
I figured out what I asked you last time from your username, comment-style (here), and my e-mail interaction with you some months back (that I found from your website and mailing lists.)
So drop me a note by e-mail, so I know who you are too! It’s always nice to meet an old friend.
Did you get my message? (sent to the address at your domain name.)
I won’t get it until I get home.
Oh, hi, excuse me, can I butt into the conversation? WOW! Yeshiva World! I am so proud of you! Not only do you provide us with news but you are a shadchan! I am sooo happy that Reverand Motcha and Joseph will finally be meeting each other…
What a happy ending…:)
I’m glad you found a new job 🙂
iameckstein- ahem, this is a private page. Maybe you can find some better pastures… The donut story was quite interesting… maybe add a few comments there, as we always look forward to your two cents worth.
Thank you for reporting all the latest HOCK you do a great job but one thing i would like to request. Before putting up pictures of people that are in accidents make sure that the injured are o.k. with it especially in this case where its a child. who said the parents like pictures of there children all over the Internet. If you want to put in a picture of the fire truck , police car,ambulance or even of the crowd that’s fine but i think its alittle embarrassing for the family in this type of situation or anytime there’s a big accident. At least block out the face of the person . These things can be very touching and personal to certain people and do not want there face posted all over especially when u claim you have 100,000 hits each day.Its a little disturbing to see a young child laying on a stretcher all bandaged up. I think instead of putting pictures of these people you should put a kapital of tehillem.
Editors Response: There are no picture showing the boys face.

V’hamavin yovin…..
Aw shucks, you ruined our moment.
Reb Mothca, Jos’, IAMECKSTEIN….
LOL! omg, these comments! I know the Shame parade was bothersome to all but lets continue mocking THEM and not EACHOTHER….
My question is, how did iameckstein know that I’m a reverend? 😉
To Reverend Motcha:
Didn’t you once comment that you work as an anti-missionary?
Hence the name “Reverend”
Oh, and Joseph? Three cents, not two, three cents.
Keep the conversation flowing. I hope you finally met your long lost buddy. Whose name begins with a “G”?
I never lost that buddy. I just don’t know if he’s online.
This is ironic, since you mentioned that I used to do anti-missionary work. sometime in the mid-seventies, there used to be a missionary campaign with bumper stickers that said “I Found It!” with a telephone number.
An anti-missionary group of the time mounted a counter-campaign with bumber stickers that said “I never lost it!”
I was still in yeshivah at the time, so I wasn’t active in a whole lot of anti-missionary activity, but I heard at the time that in some yeshivah the bochurim would spend bein hasedorim calling the missionary number and pretending they thought it was a Lost and Found.
