Getting married puts an end to the calls from shadchanim.
OK, so now I’ll stop saying “good Shabbos” to my neighbor’s 12 year old daughter.
Isn’t he against all the programs that benefit Yiddin such as Medicaid, Food Stamps, Section 8, WIC?
One must assume that this beam is only temporerilly on the writers property. In NYC there are front yard, side yard and rear yard requirements.
Why would we it it, instead of cholunt, kigel, herring and kishka as we have for generations?
Sushi is bad enough, but man made pork is going too far!
If that was a problem it would also apply to heating that is controlled by a thermostat. It would mean for 8-9 months a yrear you couldn’t enter or leave your house or shul. All shuls that I’ve been to have ac and people including very chosul rabonim seem to enter aqnd leave.
YeshivaRodefKesef: My wife wears loose filling long clothing as all frum women should. Should I avoid driving and shopping in frum neighborhoods so that my eyes don’t see this lack of tznius?
Flatbush, Boro Park, 5 Towns. I see it daily, women wwho are wearing shaitels but clothes that are too tight and too short. They don’t have to dress like women in Williamsburg but a little longer and looser would by stylish and halachic. The problem seems more extensive recently or I’m just finding it more distracting.
To complain about men.
Do their wear streimlach in Chicago in this extreeme heat?
Depends on the mental state and capabilities of the child’s mother. It’s not unheard of in New
York.
This is a most serious shaila and you must call your Rav immediatly to ask.
If you look into it, you’ll find that many businesses contribute to causes that offend us. I assume that your posting will have no effect on the frum women who shope at Target.
We only have animals on the table, fully cooked of course.
What’s the difference between Romneycare and Obamacare?
Possibly shadim?
As a high IQ male, may I suggest that the woen lower their innate IQs by squeezing into high heel shoes two sizes too small. Just my theory.
I’m right here at my filtered computer.
Basya – Ask your father to discuss it with his Rav. The Rav may even have a shidduch for you.
This resume thing really took off despite the demeaning nature of it. What’s next? Weekly resumes in Torah Times?
If you let the kids take seats at the kiddush, ext thing they’re going to want to join the kiddush club!
The double rainbow just before Shabbos was to honor those who gave up the internet after the asifa, and to remind Flatbush residents of the Flatbush asifa.
Am I the only one that realizes that sour cream chips must be milchig? Isn’t it obvious to all?
Of course we as frum Yiddin should tip generously as a kiddush Hashem (good public relations for our people).

I haven’t looked this year, but in the past there have been low priced hand shmura matzo from Eretz Yisroel and the Ukreaine of all places. I assume that those matzohs are quite old and that you get what you pay for.
Does anyone know exactly what happened to the 5 town matza bakery that was opened a few years ago under Rabbi Belsky’s hashgocha?
The 99 Cent store on Coney and Z has quite a few Pesach items at far below supermarket prices. Not for 99 cents of course.
I bought my tickets because I expect to get a better return on this inverment than I did with Bernie Madoff. At least I can’t lose as much.
I’ll have to wait till motzei Shabbos to verify than I won. Does anyone ou there want to claim it for me so that I can remain anonymous?
They are needed so that the shochtim has a parnossah and for korbonos when the Bais Hamikdosh is rebuilt.
Most vodka is now made from grain. Pesach vodka is made from potatoes or sugar cane.
Scotch is by far the most refined drink. Read THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO SCOTCH WHISKEY by Jim Murray to learn all about it.
If you’re an agressive driver who doesn’t need to park – choose Boro Park.
If you push a stroller into traffic to see if it’s safe to cross – choose Boro Park
If you like to double park – choose Boro Park
If you like to park in crosswalks and at hydrants – choose Boro Park.
A freilichen Pirim. I’m surprised that everyone doesn’t realize that there is no such institution, except for perhaps on Pirim!
These atheists do beleive in the media and evidently sent out press releases before the weekend which is a slow time for news. The frequernt mention on the news stations gave them a lot more publicity than the billboards themselves will. This is a media stunt, not an attempt to make atheists out of the Williamsburg chassidim. Ignore them.
I would have missed the slanted article in Hamodea if Yaakov Gold had not put his letter on Yeshiva World. There must be issues other than this toeva marriage ewhich is already the law. Where do they stand on other issues?
Which shul does Starobin daven at. I’l like to speak to him over Shabbos (after tefilla of course).
Scotland for a theme. A kilt for a costume and bottles of single malt and some butterscotch for shaloch manos will please everyone.
In Brooklyn we have all income levels, the rich, the wannebes and the poor that are just making it. For a frum family of 5 to get by in Brooklyn today takes a gross taxable income of $150,000, and many don’t earn close to that.
The rich, though small in number are imitated by many.
The wannebes lease the high end cars, shop at the overpriced grocery on Coney Island Avenue and L, have high credit card balances and are behind on yeshiva tuition.
We unfortunatly have large numbers of struggling poor frum families who keep a low profile and lead simple lives without rent subsidies, but with Food Stamps and Medicaid
The original Mr Friedman was nifter about 5 or 6 years ago after he and his son Marty sold the store to the 2 partners who moved it accross 13th Avenue to the 13th Avenue Public market location. Once it moved it was never the same as the original Friedmans. Rosners on 14th and 45th is similiar to the original Friedmans store.
Among the Rissians its Russian names ie Svetlana bas Genya since some don’t have or don’t know the Hebrew names.
I assume that Hashem understands
Converting the dead is effortless with no resistance whatsoever.
Just came from there. Looks very nice, but I found the prices high as expected. Somewhat disorganized today with usual start up problems. Opening was delayed from 10AM to noon. The meat looked good and was of course fresh on opening day, but priced high. The only good prices I saw were eggs @ $.99 and large pomegranates @ 2/$1. Some items had no prices, but in general lowe than Pomegranate and much higher than KRM. No one seemed to be buying much.
Unless there are sales I won’t be back.
There is an infinite number of Chassidish Rebbes since almost every Rebbe’s son wants his own title. Kind of like the stars in the sky or grains of sand. There are even mutliples with the same title ie Satmar, Spinka, Bostoner.
Does it work with a shtreimal too?
Common knowledge that the term is used for the first Shabbos a chossen spends with his in laws. Usually said in a joking way, but even with the ideal in laws it can be tense.
I happen to have great in laws.
All of the siddur parties and Chumush parties from my children and grandchildren, with the exeption of one on a Sunday, were weekdays during school hours. And my experience is with at least a dozen different yeshivos. I’m sure the administration and the children realize that many can’t take off work to attend.
My wife lights the number of candles that she previously lit, plus the number that I lit while divorced. We have a whole lot of candles burning every Shabbos.
For those of us who get up early for early minyonim,this is the easiest fast to wake up for. To wake up at 5:15 and finishing eating at 6:07 is a minor schedule adjustment. A full breakfast with 2 cups of coffee makes this tainis real easy.
I’ve been trying to sell a 35 year unused set of chains on Craigs list during the past few winters with no response. They were bought for 235/75/15 tires and never used. I list them in the dead of winter and get no responses.
Very few places sell tire chains these days.
Because that meat came from a “downer” a sick animsl that had to be dragged into the slaughter house to be brutally killed.
That’s the factual answer to your stupid question.
So if I give up YWN, my life will improve greatly?
Hard to believe “So my brother made his turkey for this shabbos (you know, the one your wife’s job gives her for free by thanksgiving). And of course, he has like 10 lbs of leftover turkey.”
Turkey, the most delicious bird created by Hashem, can certainly be eaten for a few days after Shabbos Kodesh along with the left over kigel and cholunt. The Chanukah goose leftovers just sit in the fridge.
Now “they” don’t get a chance to ear their leftovers since they are too busy going to Mickey D’s, Dominos and ordering Chinese takeout.
