600kilo:
If a sick weird person who you suspect may be a danger to society lives in your neighborhood, but he never committed an actual crime yet (much like this guy), what can be done? You can’t jail him for what he didn’t do. And you can even institutionalize him against his will due to mere suspicions of future behavior. And as long as he is in society, he will live in someone’s neighborhood – he has to be somewhere. So what’s to be done?
The best shidduchum (and the most shidduchim) come from friends and family and colleagues, NOT from “professional shadchanim”. For good reason too.
What’s the big deal?
I agree with Dr. Pepper 100%.
aries: The Police Commissioner, Ray Kelly, just said he was a complete stranger and he met the boy randomly.
That kashers it?
I’ve been getting it intermittently too since last night. Maybe the servers are very busy because of the tragic news.
When they start dating.
If something is a grey area, doesn’t mean you can pick and decide for yourself if you want to don it.
What about Joe Lieberman?
$500 a season sounds like child labor!
Teens are child labor.
Anyways, the free camp that normally costs thousands to attend is part of the pay benefits in addition to the actual financial compensation.
Fine, ignore me.
strawberry (when bugs weren’t such an issue)
The bugs only started infesting strawberries recently?
How can I locate a post by its post number?
If it was very local for him, how much should I tip?
Ask the goyish girls. But don’t become friends with them. And certainly don’t become influenced by them. But like everyone said, it’s still far better than asking a boy.
Any less than Bachman? Why do you say.
Shabbos takes away hours from both Friday and Sunday. So how can it be 24/6?
Can I offer the Chaveirim member a tip for his help?
How can I make more threads appear on the main coffee room page? They scroll off too fast, and I am losing track of threads that I was trying to follow, but disappeared only a few hours after recent activity. Is there any way to change it from 50 to 100 threads appearing on the main page?
How do you mod “24 hours” on Friday or Sat. Night/Sunday?
I think Palin is smarter than Bachman. (But I am a fan of neither of them.)
Unfortunately, it probably is b/c certain Yidden have abused it in the past. I saw certain frum Jews today abusing the privilege and I don’t live in Flatbush.
Why are you blaming the Jews. If you were a gentile saying that, you would rightfully be condemned as an anti-semite. Just because you are Jewish you think you are immune?
At least it’s not Android or iPhone addiction. Clinicians say those are much worse.
I tried, but it was decaf.
How much does an ice cream machine cost? What is used to make the ice cream?
Where can an adult frum male (who can’t swim) obtain swimming lessons that teach the basics how to swim, in a single gender environment, in either the Brooklyn or Catskills area?
What’s the story about? Did you ever post it here?
Unfortunately, we live in a disposable society.
A friend once wasn’t charged at Staples for an expensive toner and asked his R”Y what to do. He was told that he was allowed to keep it but he won’t see any mazal with anything it’s used for.
So the family photos he prints won’t have any mazal? How does that work?
Why does the Ari hold this?
Too young is no good
What do you refer to as “too young”? 15? Who would disagree. 18? Many successful marriages at that age, and in fact there is no evidence any less successful than those marrying at 22.
So wait. Here the cashier is asking the customer to give her one box to scan 5 times. So an error will occur either way. Is he *obligated* to advise her she is making an error? Or could he follow her instructions to give her once case? It is *her* error, so it is taaos akum. He may as well as give her the one with no deposit, so that he isn’t overcharged.
Does fedchap indicate the Fed’s Chapped someone?
One who is from Michigan is called a Michigander. To avoid the obvious. a Michiganer.
By the goyim being a “michiganer” means something obvious?
I totally agree with mod80, DaasYochid, msseeker and all the others who said this is a very very (relatively speaking) small issue Baruch Hashem. And even one case is very terrible, but overall B”H it is far far better than in any other community in the world.
Some Starbucks stores are more trustworthy than others…
How can you rely on that? They have no certification. If some are bad, you never know if that’s the case in the one you got your drink in.
zhavasdad: I would say between the two, violating shomer negiah is worse than eating a cheeseburger in Mcdonalds. Violating Shomer Negiah he and she might think is not a big deal, but when he ate that cheeseburger, he probably knew he was doing very wrong.
Do you think the Barditchiver would exclaim “Look how good we are – We daven even when we’re so engrossed in our toys”?
Isn’t that precisely what the Barditchever exclaimed when he saw the man fixing his wagon with oily hands, while wearing his Tefilin and davening —
Oy, RBS”O, look at your precious children, even while he is conducting his personal business fixing his wagon he can’t stop thinking about you and davening to you!!
