    What most of us from monsey do when we need a hat is drive to Brooklyn (or Lakewood) and visit the borsalino stores there.
    Unless it’s really urgent it’s worthwhile to wait a few weeks until you need to be in one of those towns.
    When I needed a hat last I waited for the next time I went for a wedding I went in a bit early to shop for one.

    No as matter of fact he didn’t, but if your profile reflects you at all, you have absolutely no skin in this game

    Andrew Cuomo has revitalized New York in a way few governors have, la guardia, penn station the tappan see bridge just to name a few.

    As for fiscal responsibility I’m not sure which democrat you compare him to,more jobs have been created in NY during his time as governor. He convinced Amazon to move its HQ2 to NYC (that project ended up falling apart due to socialists in the city) while corporations are fleeing blue states in droves.
    In this state you are getting a democrat, so either stick up your nose or pick the one least dangerous, in my opinion that is Cuomo.

    You make a good point.
    Lets bring him back as governor; he was a good fiscal manager, always a plus in a governor.
    The Mario Cuomo bridge was built on time and on budget, something unheard of in government projects.
    Unless one has name recognition, getting someone as moderate as Governor Andrew Cuomo is almost impossible.
    Cuomo has the name recognition needed to win the mayor’s race, chances are he will be the best option.

    RFK jr is polling at 22%, pointing out serious flaws in a candidate who may be the most successful third party bid in us history is by no way a waste of time.

    His second wife died of apparent suicide, after a prolonged and messy legal separation. It is reported that the presidential candidate used to demean her and try his hardest to hurt her emotionally.
    It is surprising to me that not once was he confronted about these rumors.

    Oh I’m not worried about that.
    What scares me about him is his relative youth, at his age he can afford to run in a few more elections. And like Biden who finally won on his third try, I fear third time will be a charm by him too.

    Rav Shimon alster Z”TL said a few years ago at a gathering near his father’s burial site, if one were to live three hundred years, the world’s happenings would be like a beautiful tapestry,
    We don’t live forever so we don’t have the answers.
    The maharsha before he was niftar told his community that he would implore the kisai Hakavod to end the suffering of his kehila. After he was niftar he came in a dream to one of the community leaders and said the following, over here there’s no questions, everything makes sense, I now understand why what happens, happens but you who don’t can still daven.

    Ps. now that much of our history is well documented and easily accessible, the ability to understand the master plan is now possible.

    The question you should’ve posed would sound like this;
    Trump has been really quiet lately regarding the situation in Israel, could it be Israel is losing its best friend in American politics.
    Instead you decided to revisit the Russia hoax because you are a political hack.

    Do you have anything to back up your conspiracy theory? Maybe any evidence that Putin would want such? Chances are you don’t because based on your history in the YWN coffee room I’d be led to believe it’s your hatred of trump that is the only corroboration you come with.

    Just a thought
    The Chacham Tzvi a grandson of the Maharal wrote a Sefer about golem’s, and did not once mention any golem created by his own grandfather.
    Seems highly unlikely that the Maharal ever made a golem.

    I think someone needs to post a picture of the way lululemons actually look Because they don’t have to be leggings if you don’t get the leggings plenty of feine yeshiva bochrim and even adirei hatorah wear them albeit they were the tzniusdike ones
    Take a road trip down to any yeshiva and you’ll see numerous bochrim, who look very much the part wearing said levush

    It seems as though @gadolhadorah is perpetually complaining about the coffee room being overrun by bored bochurim during bein hazmanim.
    For the record and without exception (though all rules do have exemptions) all yeshivos are currently in middle of the zman so please find a new talking point at least until after Yom Kippur.
    You can if you’d like resume using said talking point once again this time until Rosh Chodesh Cheshvon
