    Mosquitos in your house?

    Why pester yourself with a fly swatter, bug zapper, mosquito net, topical bug repellent, citronella (though I think that most citronella candles are for outdoor use only, and/or whatever else they’re selling today?!

    Do yourself a favor and just get yourself a gross of spiders for the weekend while you spend Shabbos in your local Super 13 motel. By the time you return, those pesky blood suckers will be gone. When you return to your home, just sweep up your full-bellied spiders and toss them into your backyard.

    Coffee Addict: I own no stock in the company. I do not work for any sales team.

    The benefits that I get from assistive technology tools are immense on their own.

    Though, to be upfront and honest, I am currently navigating Otter a.i. I still need a couple weeks of experience with the app and program.

    It’s just amazing how much better my life is with these tools!!

    Otter a.i. is giving me something that could have helped me significantly as recently as last year.

    Really a blessing!!!

    Kurzweil is a computer software program that assists with writing/typing, organizing, and reading.

    Is writing a document on your phone the same as typing one on your computer?

    The Livescribe pen audiorecords your handwritten notes, and makes them available with the audio on your computer.

    Handwriting notes helps the brain process information to be stored into memory. Having a phone record audio on it’s own is not the same as writing notes by hand, especially for kinesthetic and/or visual learners.

    Don’t have health insurance, but need a doctor? Write your medical needs with a Sharpie on your white shirt. Then run head first into a lightpole so the ambulance can pick you up while you’re unconscious. Just create a GoFundMe when you get the bill. Even if the hospital doesn’t take care of all of your medical needs, your inflated fundraising goal will cover your impending medical expenses.

    Don’t have time to wash your car before work? Make the most of hurricane season by securing a colander to the roof of your car, filling it with car wash detergent, and driving around your city in the pouring rain. Make sure you get in an even amount of left and right turns, interchangeably. Don’t forget to stop abruptly three times to get a good front hood lather and rinse!

    Yellow flags are a real thing when it comes to dating advice.

    Though, in this case, when dating “the one,” green flags are likely to appear.

    Was this Holocaust book an anthology with multiple stories? Or was it a memoir from one male survivor?

    So far, I listed books written by survivors.

    What about an anthology, such as:

    Hasidic Tales of the Holocaust
    edited by Yaffa Eliach

    (From taking a glance at the Google eBooks Preview online, it looks like there are multiple survivor stories in this anthology book, with leanings toward Yiddishkeit and thanking HKBH for survival)

    A 0% unemployment rate doesn’t account for unemployed people not currently seeking employment. These unemployed people may have given up.

    Hello CR… What videos?

    What am I missing here? Are they showing videos in schools or something? Are these videos playing on street corners? In shuls? How do other posters know about these videos?

    Wondering please… thank you!
