    4-what are we/can we personally do for the yid/yidden that we know, that are not yet frum? (a personal favorite of mine)

    Accept that person without judgment, for the person he or she is, without making him feel you are trying to "fix" him or preach to him. Eventually that person will probably be comfortable enough in your presence to slowly adopt some of the things he observes in your home.

    but yeah, i meant like random interesting facts that you know, that you think most people wouldn't. i dunno - i always love reading or hearing new interesting things.

    This is from my husband - did you know that you can fit 14 newly-born opossums on a teaspoon (or maybe it's a tablespoon). Why you might WANT to, i will never know, but you COULD...

    that's so cool! just did a quick search and here's what i found:

    Newborn opossums are smaller than a dime.

    Newborn opossums are so small you could fit 24 of them into a teaspoon!

    But you wanna know why?

    After a pregnancy of only 12-13 days, the tiny, naked newborns, smaller than a dime, crawl up through their mother's belly fur and into her pouch. Here they attach to a nipple and continue to develop. After about 2 months the young opossums, now bright eyed and fully-furred, crawl out of the pouch and onto their mother's back.

    moish,
    no picture of an opossum? Also, I think this belongs in the Feivel category.

    Note to self: go to the come back to the CR thread and ask Feivel to come back.

    oh right, charlie - i swear that as i was posting it i said, "i should look for a picture" but then i forgot.

    anyway, i didn't find one now. and i ain't about to draw one myself.

    oomis, I can think of a reason why you might want to know how many can fit on a spoon. Think of caviar.

    ames: did you just start it now? because sometimes it take a little longer for them to approve new threads.
