Whitecar; Today’s spelling lesson; A gaudy Mishloach Manos that outrages some CR posters might be outrageous!
DovidBT; Does the neshoma that one davens at the amud for “score more points with Hashem” than if one would just daven in one’s seat?
What are all of you talking about? You all have Ruach Hakodesh. At least all of you that say Selichos. You all say “ורוח קדשך אל תקח ממני”!
Klugeryid; How old is the “child”?
Some aitzos; Encourage an earlier bedtime if necessary. Pull child out of bed if he/she doesn’t get up after specified number of minutes.
If child is depressed seek professional help.Anyone notice that a certain thread just vanished into thin air recently?
KatanHadorah; Thanks for the comical grandmother on the rocking chair finger wagging no drinking speech. That’ll really scare the silly teenagers out of their mindlessness.
Haimy; No need to wait, the Rema writes clearly in the last siman of Orach Chaim, “vetov lev misheh tomid”.
The purpose of a mechitza is to avoid kalus rosh between the genders. I haven’t seen that happening and even if it happened to a mild extent since posters can’t contact one another directly it shouldn’t be a problem. Unless it causes people to pursue kalus rosh in real life then it may be of concern.
CTL; Thank you for the detailed response. It’s not necessarily how I would have imagined it. It does seem like a mixed bag though.
CTL; If you have had personal contact with your trust fund clients, how would you rate their character vs. self made clients of similar socio-economic status?
CTL; Thanks for caring. I too support the philosophy of; from each according to his means, to each according to his needs.
ZD, go ahead. In which communities do tax evaders, child molestors or people stealing government benefits like Medicaid or section 8 parade their crimes in public?
CTL; Sounds very interesting. How do you and Mrs. CTL balance your work requirements vs. your camp responsibilities?
CTL; How were/are your young grandchildren entertained at Camp CTL all summer long?
Justme; Please check over your posts for spelling and grammar errors before posting.
Also try to condense your thoughts so people with ADD will follow you.
How about; Let’s have co-ed dating events for burnt out working boys open to singles taking low doses of medication.CTRebbe; I don’t know where you are davening but I don’t see the majority of people skipping most of pesukei dezimra where I Daven.
You made me recall the story of Erev Pesach when the Gabai announced that we skip Mizmor Lesoda, one fellow was puzzled how to do that since he only said Boruch Sheamar, Ashrei & Yishtabach all year long!Ubiq; Do you think the following statement is correct: “the Torah opposes eating non-kosher food and/or being mechalel Shabbos?
CTL; What you’re saying would made it quite difficult for the average CR poster to identify you. However if Joseph was your son he would definitely have identified you by all the personal details you’ve mentioned over the course of time. Nice bedtime story though. Also don’t potch too hard or Joseph’s personal injury attorneys will be in touch with you forthwith.
Joseph; come on how many attorneys can there be in suburban Connecticut towns with an Orthodox community who have served in public office? I’m sure anyone who is sufficiently determined can ascertain CTL’s identity. In summation, I hereby find Joseph’s tale quite entertaining but pointedly straining all credulity.
Act II: Scene; CTL Compound, family gathering;
Zeidy; OK all of you, the jig is up! The time for v arguments is over! Hand over your phones for inspection! With your passwords, fingertips & faces!
I have a notary standing by to certify the amendments to my will!Neville; You meant will heal the sick and make vaccines unnecessary.
The Gemara in Sanhedrin, Perek Chelek that mentions the 36 Tzadikim doesn’t say that they are hidden.
Magid of Pinsk; Who is your Rav? The Pinsker Rav?
MDG; I hope you have a climate controlled storage room for your flour and/or sift it before use, otherwise you might have an infestation problem leading to יציאת שכרך בהפסדתך.
How’s that for a display of outward religiousity?Joseph; “often leaves them left at the altar unmarried”
Seriously!? left at the altar?
Since when do Yidden get married at the altar??!!ZG, thanks
ZionGate; Thanks. Is that a Gemara or a Medrash and where is that found?
RebYid; So that leaves me sort of back where I started.
ZionGate; Thanks, now what about the wall tiles?
RebYid; It’s hard to tell but it appears in most of the tiles. To make matters more murky, the goofy tile installers set some of the tiles in the opposite direction resulting in the Satan worshippers upside down cross.
Now that the topic of bathroom tiles has been broached, I would like to pose the following shaila to the esteemed members of this distinguished panel. I noticed a while after I moved in to my current rental apartment that there is a crucifix design on both the wall and floor bathroom tiles. Do I have to replace them or can I rely on the response of the Rosh Yeshiva who when informed that a picture of אותו האיש was hanging on the wall of his hospital room replied “ער הענגט,? זאל ער הענגן”?
I’m not familiar with this event but I saw a video of an event which could have been called “בשבתנו על סיר הבשר”!
Which took the נבל ברשות התורה to new heights or lows.Joseph: The surviving members
RebYidd; Trump is from NY, not LA!
Sorry, I knew there was one more that slipped my mind before.
Ba Charedim vehemidan al achas, “Issur Mesirah!”Re: Dina Dimalchusa Dina;
Ba Chavakuk vehemidan al achas, “Tzadik be’emunaso yichyeh”.
Lehavdil, Ba Reform & beyond, vehemidan al achas, “Tikun Olam”.
Ba RZ vehemidan al achas, “Medinat Yisrael”.
Ba MO vehemidan al achas, “Dina Demalchusa Dina”.Manitou; I highly doubt you are charedi or learned in Kollel for 10 years. But even if you did, your hashkafos have clearly changed since then. Your screen name alone is indicative of that. The definition of manitou; among the Algonquian Indians) a supernatural being that controls nature; a spirit, deity, or object that possesses supernatural power.
Quite telling that you chose that as your alias.
Your “rational” theme is further proof.As far as the Rambam is concerned, I think it’s pretty obvious the reason the Rambam didn’t say אם מת is because that it’s included in אם לא עשה והצליח
Does anyone want to address the fact that the Rebbe said “הגיע זמן גאולתכם “בתורת נבואה
As I was told by Lubavichers years before ג’ תמוז
I also heard that the Rebbe said
מיר זיצען צוזאמען ביי איין טיש מיט משיח
If that was not referring to himself I don’t know what would be. Surely nobody expected him to say b’peh maleh “I am Moshiach”!Meno; We aren’t, just KatanHadorah with her MO mentality is. That she constantly haunts YWN with is geared to the Charedi community just indicates that there must be a dearth of interactive MO sites.
Actually I recall we had a rather extensive coffee thread a while back.
But since you ask; lighter roast when I need more caffeine, darker when I need less. No sugar (so one can actually taste the coffee), red milk if no cream or half & half is available.
A vareme geshmake Shachris to all.Sechel; I clearly recall the tekufah before gimel tamuz. I was told then by Lubavicher Chasidim in my shul that the Rebbe said Higia Zman Geulaschem, “Betoras Nevuah”.
Takes2; It’s cute how KatanHadorah changes the wording from allegations to witnesses in order to make her mindless accusations and snide implications, isn’t it?
CS; “allot” means to assign as a share or portion, what you are trying to say is “a lot”.
I agree with Ferd that it is not ideal to travel on such a long trip so close to Shabbos. It’s not like a trip to the Catskills where you have the option to stop in Monsey or Monroe. However even if Charedim didn’t travel on this flight El Al would still fly it since there were only about 20 Charedim in Athens according to one of the passengers Rabbi Halberstam.
Who are Chagas Chasidim?
Anybody know why I stopped receiving email notification of follow up replies? I did not select the block notification icon.
Joseph: Don’t think that your smart aleck tactics will convince anyone that LT is a saintly group. If you want first hand evidence, go to Montreal and speak to the other son of Shlomo Erez Elbaranes Hellbrans. He left the cult when he realized that it was a perversion of Yiddishkeit. I believe Shlomo Hellbrans wife also left when she was attacked. Now his daughter left and is planning to embrace the family of her husband’s first wife (daughter of the Kashau Rebbe) who opposed The Hellbrans cult for many years.
There is testimony from former members how they were given malkos in public for bizarre reasons such as drinking from water bottle! If you cover for them, you are just enabling there aveiros and abuse with all that that entails.Health; So why should one suffer from the side effects if there are in many cases natural alternatives that do not have such potentially serious side effects?
I once heard that due to its Kedusha and chashivus there was extreme competition among the wealthy and chashuvim over who would receive the kibud to lead the tzibur for Aanim Zemiros. Therefore to avoid this strife in Germany a takanah was instituted that it could only be led by someone under Bar Mitzvah. We see until this day this minhag in many Ashkenaz shuls. Other kehillos seem to have dealt with this issue by having the Shliach Tzibur of Musaf lead it.
