    Solution found!

    Instead of going to Dunkin’Donuts on J and E14 I went to the one on McDonald and Ave I!Is it kosher as well? Are the donuts at all DD kosher?

    I Guess you’re right.

    I walked today in 10 minutes!

    But what about when the weather turns nasty?

    Bottom Line!

    I gotta get from East 3rd and J to J and East 13th by 9:00AM.

    10 blocks takes me now 20 minutes!!

    What’s my quickest way to get there by car?

    I have no bike,skates or surfboard!

    And I ain’t walking!

    Any suggestions?

    Joseph.

    I’m aware of those objections.

    obviously some physical changes will have to be made!

    Access from BP onto OP north will be built!

    It’s not a big job!

    A new light will have to be installed at that spot as well.

    A small price to pay.

    After all, they’ve been building islands on Ft Hamilton Pkwy and Coney Island Ave for no good reason!

    Bottom line:If all that’s done will it solve the problem?

    Randomex-Check out you tube for country yossi and I believe their first 3 albums are posted featuring all the originals plus their CY parodies!

    b/t/w, Sholom Ber drowning while saving a classmate who wouldn’t befriend him was pretty heavy!

    OK!

    There are 2 options.

    1. I have been outed in my sneaky, undercover operation

    by some long-time CY fanatic who remembered where I got my name from and dug it up to post or

    2. I am an avid CY fanatic myself and that weird, funny name stuck in my head for the last 7 years just looking for a place to be used!

    Which one is it?

    Does anybody care?

    I once had a tablemate who kept blowing his nose, crumbling up the tissues and throwing them on the floor at his feet! When I objected he said he would pick them up after davening.When there were about 20 on the floor I felt it was a Bizayon Bais Haknesses and demanded he pick them up!He told me to calm down. I said if he doesn’t pick them up I will make a Tumul!He said I’m embarrassing him but he wouldn’t pick them up! When I raised my voice in protest he got up and walked out and never came back to our shul! We haven’t spoken in 10 years !Was I wrong? Did I over-react?

    pict, I walked out with my one hat but I was stricken with remorse.

    Should I have let him take the whole savings?

    It would have been the magnanimous thing to do but he did have an attitude!

    Like it was coming to him!

    The ironic truth is that physical attraction is neither necessary

    nor important in deciding whom to marry!Complimentary spiritual needs,life goals and personality compatibility are crucial in maintaining a satisfying long term relationship! Mutual respect, love and empathy, and not physical attraction, should be paramount considerations. As couples age these traits are the mortar that binds! So look for these -NOT LOOKS and MONEY!

    No, he said he wasn’t running a 1/2 price sale only a BOGO 1/2 sale!

    But in our case he would look the other way!
