    I assume you are speaking of the American flag…

    Let me guess: you are from NY, since you speak as if there’s only 1 existing flag!

    I enjoy a good joke.

    I appreciate talent.

    When a bachur walked through an empty BH”M wearing a WMCA tee-shirt (no pix just the letters WMCA) to win a $5 bet I did not think he was nuts because I knew he gained $5. Should I be impressed amused or shocked that there are nine apartments in someones building? And why tie it in with a Mitzva from Hashem?

    OK busybody I can understand that you dont find this game to be intresting, but why did you have to stop playing the ?????? ???? ???? as a protest? obviously you enjoyed that game alot.

    I can understand someone getting bored of I game, I also feel that that game has run its course but thats not what you said.

    Shticky,

    If you’ll allow me to build on your reply…

    No I dont. You must use your own initiative and not steal the points I was going to post today (jk). Yea I was hoping nobody would just post the next in the list of everything I posted 🙂

    By the way your lechem hapanim would still have been fresh after 3 days so we’ll accept it no probs.
