Which Country Are You From?

who could guess where skripka is from!

just south of there actually, the city is in the country of brooklyn

Born in USA, lived in the holy land for a bit, now back in USA until further notice.

i would love to know what you were thinking 🙂 plus, who said thats not a clue?

I sing in russian, i play in plutonian

I assumed the reference to yourself in the third person in

“who could guess where skripka is from!” was meant to imply that the name was indicative in some way. Otherwise, why not use “I?”

I once picked up a fellow hitching a ride from Monroe to “the country”. He repeatedly asked me what country I’m from and I repeatedly replied the US. He was getting VERY frustrated with my reply and I was getting irritated by his seemingly repetitive question, so I finally asked him what country he was from, to which he replied, Skolya in South Fallsburg!

There is a sefer written that covers many halachic and hashkafic scenarios that arise during the summer months and the word “countries” is used throughout. For example, (it is written in yiddish – this is my translation) when discussing eruvin it says: all “countries” should be sure their eruv is constructed and properly supervised by those expert in hilchos eruvin.

I think skripka and Happy Go Lucky come from the same pod.

You’ve already said elsewhere that you live in NYC.

Sorry for the stalking, but hey, you are super cool.
