Many of us have been here in the YWN Coffee Room for quite a while. Others are a bit newer. Few of us though know much about each other.
Why not share the human side of ourselves? Who we are; what we do; where we live; play; school; work; and whatever interesting tidbits that we can share.

November 13, 2008 11:41 am at 11:41 am #624872shindyMemberokay, you start “bogen”.
November 13, 2008 1:27 pm at 1:27 pm #624873yoshiMemberI’m betting a lot of us know each other in the “real” world. Some just don’t know it yet 🙂
November 13, 2008 2:58 pm at 2:58 pm #624874BogenParticipantshindy: Good point!
I went through the “normal channels” in frum society, ~ 25, born and bred in Flatbush, grew up there and went to school there all my life, by blood from pre-war Chasidic shtetl’s, don standard suit, tie & hat (as all of family does), Yeshivas were like that too, always davened in a local shtiebel, still live locally, mostly self-taught in secular studies (though have a BS), work in financial services, light computer gamer, collect stamps, anything else?
Ok, your up! Don’t be bashful…

Second, before I post, can we agree that this thread will be used *solely* to get to know each other and not to debate halacha? There are certain things that I don’t want to reveal about myself if they’re only going to cause people to jump down my throat and take this thread away from its original topic.

November 13, 2008 7:01 pm at 7:01 pm #624880shindyMemberBogen…I know that you are suggesting this very innocently, but truthfully I don’t think it is a good practise putting out details of your life for the whole world to see. Unfortunately, there are alot of kooky people out there, and for that reason I am not on face book or any other site where you meet other people. In fact, I am a little surprised that YW put your post on.
