@midwestener, absolutely ridicules, according to godaven about half the shuls in the greater Lakewood area are nusach sefard, add to that the nusach ashkinaz shuls who have zero to do with the Yeshiva in Brick, Jackson and Toms River, that will give you about 1/3 of the Olam nominally affiliated with BMG and this have been this way for the past ten years growing more and more on a daily basis.
Another valiant attempt to hijack the tread by posting a trollish comment, please don’t give him what he wants.
What is the difference between Lakewood and any other frum area, BP, Flatbush, Monsey, London etc. etc. all have a wide range of income brackets, why the big deal?
@AAQ,
[1] Actually when it comes to significant decisions such as a career move I consult with a Rav, something you derided on a regular basis.
[2] Being motzi shem rah mean the one puts out negative information about someone, in all your posting you were very proud of the fact that you are not subservient to a Rav on ANY issue and you made fun of anyone who did, for example during Covid you ridiculed anyone who ask a Rav if they should take the shot and was told not to.forget the AED, is there a grant to get decent coffee in the Kava Steeble?
I will donate the plaque with the Hatzloahs number on it
@AAQ: “show of hands: anyone asked a Rav about investments and what were the returns?”
I know where you stand on this matter, you have been very vocal about not following advice of a Rav on ANY matter.Is the Sullivan County NY coroner position on the ballot this year?
Thats is what you worried? BH you have no bigger issues in life.
The shiyla with the Gingerbread man is did the fox knowing commit gezalah? and why were those chasing the gingerbread man not osik with hashavs avaidah?
@ just: It filters out just about all of the stuff that live in the water pipes.
Try Glattwater or Waterpik, Brita would do according to most poskim
with one exception all your topics posted are about this one issue, try to diversify your postings.
They tried to rally around him, the girth was way too big and they had to give up
Yeshiva Guy I was going to ask the same question, you beat me to it,
PS the surgeon who did CC gastric bypass is used by a lot of frum olam, I don’t know if that is reason enough to vote for him.The Gingerbread Man (also known as The Gingerbread Boy) is a fairy tale about a gingerbread man’s escape from various pursuers until his eventual demise between the jaws of a fox.
@Baltimore Maven, for every one legitimate class action there are 99 frivolous suits, for example we are currently defending a suit that our firm discriminates against Central Americans in spite of the fact the 90% of our work force is Central Americans, the average payout of lawyers in a class action is 1.96 Million, and the class members getting between $20 to $50,000, its a system crying for change.
BTW what do you do for a living?@CTL, I have dealt with torts for 20 + years and have yet to see an Attorney sanctioned for bringing a frivolous suit in NY or NJ.
@akuperma, I needed to tone it down by the mods.
“There are many Yidden working as lawyers, so we shouldn’t complain.” that comment ranks up there among the silliest that I have seen, should we encourage smoking, or poor eating habits because there are many Yidden working as doctors?
should we encourage reckless driving because many yidden own body shops? should we fight Alzheimer’s research because many yidden work in long term care? Should we lower building codes because many yidden work as builders, the list goes on and on.@Neville, insurance is a mere pass through, if the cost of claims are low premiums are low and vise versa.
@ CTL “In this case the plaintiff’s attorney who brought the case is awaiting disciplinary action by the State Bar.”
I have yet to see that happen.
@akuper,Edited! 🤨
@Baltimore maven, I have been on both sides of coin, I was hit by a car when I was a boy, spent six weeks in the hospital, I am employed as a risk manager and I can tell you the system is rife with fraud, especially in New York. The entire system needs to be revamped.
@Neville, you are obviously clueless on how insurance works, everything is driven by the probability of loss and loss cost, for example someone who lives on the San Andras fault pays more in earthquake insurance then someone in Iowa, if there will ever be tort reform premiums will drop because your loss cost will drop.
The only ones against tort reform are the plaintiff lawyers, make to thank them about the high cost of insurance.@CTL, sadly how very true, at least try to litigate is a costly venue.
@in Md, I sometimes notice the Ch and H in the same post, I guess he forgets sometimes.
@yechill, I hear the water in the falls have both a OU and the Nirbater hechsher
@Amil,
The filed rates are based on actuarial data, fact one: torts are totally out of hand with billboards, radio, tv, print ads for accident lawyers, fact two: cost of auto repairs are thru the roof with on board computers, airbags etc, fact three: fraud is off the charts with fake medical treatment, sham clinics etc.
Want to do something about the high cost of insurance push for tort reform.Next time you see a plaintiffs attorney make sure to thank him because he is the proximate cause of all of this.
I always the Kohen being mechabed with benching at every pidon haben i have ever attended.
Your being motziy shem rahI worked with a not Jewish person who was tattooed on both arms, one day he asked me why orthodox jews don’t have tattoos, so I told him the body is a temple and to get a tattoo would be considered a desecration, He thought a minute and said I’m not desecrating I am just decorating the walls.
Ah Lomdisher goy.Ten Minutes away from Boisbraind is the Cosmodome an amazing space museum, 15 minutes North in St Jerome there is access to 900 miles of off-road trails if that is more your thing.
@wolfish, I dreamt that I was in the Lamar Valley of Yellowstone and watching a wolf pack chasing a elk and suddenly they turn and started to chase me, the alpha wolf suddenly stopped and howled out I have a dream speech.
Thanks for listening to my mindless rant.
I’v joined cr couple of months ago. In beginning it was exciting. But recently came to see everything is just rehashed again and again. The anti zionists, the pro Trumps, the pro establishment (not many) and the anti establishment. The more Yeshivesh than thou and the “I take pride in bashing the Yeshivesh/chasidesh/MO/Rabbanim/The ones who bash Rabbanim”.
Nothing new and not much which is thought provoking.
You forgot to mention the ‘CR posters are repetitive and boring’ bashing
And if they serve tuna at the tish, its called a tosh tish fish, because tuna is a fish.
@Yser, i am talking about the 70s and 80s. calling card were not around then.
One of my memories is the collect calling telephone call codes, I remember the day before visiting day a boy called collect and say his name was brang hoyzin, and the operator said in gotches dafts de nisht
I stopped using postcards to send home after one of the boys in the bunk wrote home that the counselor is a behaymer and retard and the head cnlr. asked him why he wrote that.
Most of the staff worked for tips and gave it all, much more devoted back then.
The Tosher shul in BP has a mikva with hot showers, great towels and a fully stocked kava steeble.
@ng there is a bridge spanning brkln and nyc for sale
@ng are you using both user names on this thread?
@tosher: “wow such bigotry” how so?
Yes this topic is about attention. Two questions I have recently.
1. What is it about attention that if someone “asks for it” no one wants to give it? If someone wants a loan no body minds lending. If someone wants a kind word or encouragement people give it. If someone wants a lift people give him. But if someone “just wants attention” then everyone has to ignore him?
2. There are so many times people do weird or loud or different things and people run to say they’re just doing it for attention. and so many times that’s no true. Let’s say you have a tenth grader standing on his desk in middle of math class and screaming and one of the more mature kids say “You just want attention.” Which could be not true at all. Maybe he just finds it very funny. In fact, if someone els would do it he’d find it funny and enjoy it so obviously his actions have nothing to do with attention, it’s just he finds it funny and wants it done–doesn’t matter who does it.
Or you have a guy who lights his menorah outside and someone walks by and mutters it’s not the minhag he just wants attention. Like how dumb is that? Maybe the guy’s a big machmir maybe he doesn’t know halacha maybe he does know halacha and the passer by is wrong–whatever, why are people always running to say oh its just for attention?@annonyomus jew, an interesting comment from someone who posted over 560 times
@GH, Eating Kokosh cake and drinking hot cocoa in the lodge would most likely be the bare minimum to qualify as a ungarisher ski trip, cross country skiing in pishpikludan defiantly qualifies.
@farfetched
To try answering the first question, maybe people realize that sometimes giving attention to those who crave it may create a pattern of emotional dependency where they keep coming back to you for more in desperation. Like that friend that always makes the joke and immediately looks at you to see your reaction. Not everyone enjoys that.a ski trip where your eat Letcho and kapusta in the ski lodge
@GH snowmobiling around that area is great too
