    Mrs. L, even if they do charge (which they do NOT), who should pay for the service.

    Do you eat treif bec kosher is more expensive. Maybe kosher food should be free so that no one is tempted to buy treif food?

    TAG does not charge for their services. They are amazing, we have all our computers and phone filtered free with free service when we need it.

    I am amazed at the pple that work there. Kol Hakovod!

    I can only speak from personal experience.

    We had whattsap as a family chat, first it was great for sharing pictures and video clips.

    Loads of friends were on our group and we got dozens and dozens of video clips. Fascinating, entertaining and comical. I couldnt keep up watching all of them. I couldnt not watch them, they were so short and easy to just watch one after another. and then of course forward further.

    It wasnt an easy decision to get rid of whatsapp. I justified like all of you, whats wrong, i can do good things with it etc….

    We got rid of it.

    What can I tell you, at first i was bored. I would look at my phone for entertainment, it didnt provide any. Now I see how addicted I was.

    smc,sending videos through a third party via e-mail is a hassle and time consuming. whatts app makes it really easy to send tens of videos at once.

    These videos are entertaining and addictive. Since we got rid of whatts app, we dont get any videos through third party e-mail. Im totally fine with it, what a waste of time. I feel liberated without whatsapp.

    My personal observation:

    with whatsapp you can send very large video clips that you cant send over a text, some of these clips are even too large for e-mail over the phone. So what happens is, in five minutes you get tens of these clips. When we had whatsapp, we would spend every free minute watching these entertaining clips that were getting passed around. Believe me, they were intersting, from magic tricks, to goof tricks etc.

    We couldnt stop watching, it was like having a TV turned on all day.

    We decided to get rid of whatsapp. It was so liberating.

    we were free.

    texting is quick.

    whatapp is addictive and time consuming.

    by chassidim, the boys parents meet the girl first and vs versa.

    Only then do the boy and girl meet. Sometimes the boys parents accompany him to the first date and both sets of parents and boy and girl are present, they all shmooze a little and then the parents go home and the boy and girl meet.

    This makes a lot of sense to me, but maybe bec it was the way i was brought up.

    I like the idea of buying bulk and having on hand.

    Shuli, BH there are many yidden that are very well to do. They have good going businesses and have a lot of money.

    I spoke to someone that made a lavish wedding and he told me he doesnt even feel that he is missing any money now after the wedding. All the money he spent was extra money that he has.

    Excellence, would you say the same about mice? how about just let them live in your house and feed them cheese and butter.

    Unfortunately, the cats have taken over the yard where my children play. They sit on the riding toys, climb up the slide and nap on the ground one on top of another. The yard is now off limits for my children, besides for the fact that they are afraid, the cats are unsanitary, and can possibly be carrying infections.

    I need them out of my yard and I need to disinfect the whole place.

    I think finding a company that can take them to a shelter is the ultimate chessed for them and for my own family.

    I called the ASPCA they told me they do not remove cats, but they take them. I should be very cautious while trapping cats.

    Wolf, There is no food in my yard at all, trash cans are in the front of my home. In fact the mother cat leaves for a few hours and comes back with food, my yard it becoming a mess.

    My yard doesnt have grass, its cemented.

    I am wondering if there is not a company that I can pay that catches the cats and takes them to the ASPCA shelter.

    yehudayona, part of being successful is failing and being able to brush off the dust and start again.

    The point is, now he is a success story. He knows hard work, he knows failure, and he knows success.

    I think those are great qualifications for a president, especially one that has so much failure to build up.

    I acutally think he would make a great president.

    He is not afraid to say the truth the way it is. He is confident enough with himself, hes not buttering anyone!

    He says the truth about immigration, problems with the economy etc.

    Hes a shrewd businessman that can hopefully get the economy back on its two feet. No arguing that Bloomberg was a great mayor. You actually need brains to be a leader and a lot of it.

    Unfortuantly, I think he has zero chance of winning

    That is totally being racist without wanting to sounds bad.

    Like pple say “I dont mean to gossip, but she is going through a really messy divorce”….”

    Does that make it not gossip?

    “Nisht oif shabbos geret I’m planning a trip to Atlanta on Tuesday”

    Does that make it muttur to discuss on shabbos?

    To me sounds like the same idea….

    YW Moderator-29, totally not sure what you mean. We are such a nice family that has a seasons pass to crayola factory and would like to take an innocent trip there….why would I ” plan on being loud, cutting lines and strewing garbage?”

    I thought going out for pizza for supper would be such a nice addition to such a day.

    MDG, does Highland Park have a kosher pizza shop? Do you know the name or GPS address?

    Will they continue such searches for years? costing a million dollars a day??

    Wolf, I wasn’t trying to rebuttle you. Just agreeing, adding and asking your opinion.

    My first question, which you basically answered, was public opinion on what is a greater deal – getting out or remaining hidden.

    I think they are both a huge deal.

    In terms of laying low, how much outside help can they be getting, enough to challenge the police???

    WolfishMusings, what do u think is a bigger deal here, the escape iteself, sawing out of prison or laying low.

    They are both a huge deal, thats why this story is sooo perplexing, no?

    WolfishMusing, even if they had one (or two) helper(s), how much is that worth in the scope of such an escape.

    I wonder if the jail is not full of videocameras like every other highly secure place (airport). With a video camera you can go back and see everything.
