Too many of them (just added one more!)
B’H we are sesuming Tachanun this coming Tuesday, to seek Divine compassion & mercy, albeit 4 breaks from Tachanun during Iyyor alone, including the end of next week for Yom ha’Atzmaut.
147- i once heard someone say (don’t know where he got it sounds chasidish to me )that even lfi the second half dudes you are aloud to take a haircut on lag baomer. He said that they hold the talmidei rebi akiva only died on regular days not on yomim tovim (yeah, but what yom tov was it in their time?). To give an example he added they only died on days you say tachnun. so Someone asked him lfi zeh some chasidim who never say tachnun when did they die. He answered I guess they all died on Hey Iyar.
147: I’ve got an off-topic question for you. What do you do when Yom Haatzmaut falls out on behab?
I used to observe Yom Ha’Atzmaut on BeHab, but since in recent years the Rabbanut in such years made Yom ha’Atzmaut a Nidche to Tuesday Iyyor 6th, this is now a mute point.
Please bear in mind, that BeHab is more incumbant on people who work on Chol haMoed, and hence are Mevazei Es haMo’ados. Hence no BeHab after Shovu’os, since no Chol haMoed. Since I wear my Shabbos clothes on Chol haMoed & drink a Revi’is of wine each day of Chol haMoed, I technically am absolved from having to fast on BeHab.
But question for you ItcheSrulik:- What do you do when Pesach Sheni falls on BeHab?
Mevazeh Es Hamo’ados also applies to excesses in celebrating. I wear shabbos clothes on Chol Hamoed, drink wine and don’t do anything either too stupid or assur so I don’t fast either. Since I don’t fast I just go somewhere that doesn’t say slichos and it doesn’t affect me. I don’t even remember the last time it happened. I don’t think it’s a common occurrence though.
A Revi’is of wine is nowhere near enough to even be over legal limit for driving, especially being approx. 4% alcohol wine, bearing in mind, that I procure a lot of low level alcohol wine for Seder nite, and being difficult to estimate exactly how much wine for the Seder, always have low alcohol level left for Chol haMoed.
I wasn’t implying that you were guilty of any of those excesses. I was just mentioning the other way to be mevazah. Personally I drink one glass of dry wine, which I can handle without any issues and I actually like.
