    If you see someone in the Shop-Rite bakery section with a nose plug, it is either ‘Skype’ or ‘musser zoger’

    and nobody else.

    masser zoger- I have never learned Meseches Bava Mayseh, so please enlighten me.

    polisha chosid – ???? ????? ??? ??”? ???? ? ?”? ?- ?”?

    says even if you bake Matza and Chametz in the same oven (not touching each other), as long as one is wrapped, even though the Matzah aquired taste from the Chametz’s aroma, You can eat the Matzah on Pesach.

    Skype- “It’s forbidden to derive any pleasure from chometz on Pesach” – this only applies if it belongs to you. The Svarah (logic) of Achshivei that you mentioned, only applies when the item belongs to you- to transgress on ‘owning Chametz’. (Maharam Shick’s P’sak (judgement) is relevent today regarding make-up, and the like)

    This way, if you are walking down the aisle of a shopping mall, and pass by a man wearing very strong Chametzdik’e cologne, and you happen to LOVE cologne, you have no problem on Pesach.

    squeak- thanx

    You can sniff Chometz to your heart’s desire, as long as it belongs to someone else.

    Sounds like good stuff. Except for the fictional tales in Aleppo- I’m not a historical fiction guy. (Personally I think it’s a waste of time.)

    But there is a great history book of Aleppo: Aleppo, city of scholars (by David Sutton).

    It is said that Aleppo has perhaps the richest history, after Eretz Yisrael, of the Jews- straight from the days of Avrohom Avinu. It’s a little sad that so many people don’t know of it.

    Yeast alone is not chametz (nowadays they put Chametz additives into it)

    Are mushrooms Chametz?

    Rav Chaim Stein wanted to sing Zemiros on Shabbos.

    But, in Communist Russia, if anyone would hear religious songs being sung, the KGB would be notified.

    So Rav Chaim came up with an idea.

    They sung Zemiros Shabbos by the se’uda- In booming voices, and Freilach, in unison-

    In the tune of the USSR anthem.

    “This, above all else, is the main cause and reason that Rome and Edom are considered as one kingdom although they are different nations. In spite of that [difference] [The Sages of the Targum] thus explained that Rome is in Grecian Italy and that many of the Edomite people are contained therein. Hence, [Rome]
