People who don’t wear yarmulkes that often entertain me

June 22nd, 2008 · 17 Comments

So I’m at this wedding today and I noticed something really funny. It was a very diverse wedding featuring all sorts of Jews and non-Jews. Many of the Jews were folks who had put on yarmulkes just for the wedding. The chupah was held in the sanctuary of the Great Neck Synagogue and they have […]

The following video is creating an uproar on you tube

May 20th, 2008 · 57 Comments

I have posted this video before- but it needs to be posted again with all of the rather violent comments made by two individuals who think I am the worst thing since the Nazis. I am perpetuating hate and they have become convinced that I am writing for an audience of missionaries and secular Jews […]

I rarely link to other blogs but this post was definitely creative

May 14th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Many of you may have realized that I rarely link to other blogs in posts, I am not one to do Friday link dumps or memes though I may start. Heck, I don’t even read or comment on blogs- unless I REALLY have something to say. But the following blogger knows this and has been […]

Can a drop down menu really categorize every Jew?

May 13th, 2008 · 29 Comments

Please be advised- this post is very long…
Frumster was the inventor of categorizing different frumkeit levels, they came up with the idea that every person within the frum community could categorize their hashkafos with a little drop down menu. Apparently telling someone that you are modern orthodox machmir or shomer mitzvos is not enough anymore. […]

Pesach is the time for frummies to eat with secular Jews

April 29th, 2008 · 14 Comments

For many in the frum community- Pesach is a time of family, friends and getting close to secular Jews- that they otherwise would rarely have in their homes. In fact Pesach seems to be the only Jewish holiday in which secular Jews celebrate with their religious counterparts at the same meal. On Rosh Hashanah, you […]

Feeling like an idiot during davening

April 27th, 2008 · 19 Comments

Almost every Friday night at Maariv I clop for selach lanu and immediately realize my faults as I look around to make sure no one saw, its almost as bad as when I drool in public and then look around feeling like an idiot, but acting nonchalant as if nothing actually transpired.
Well on Friday […]

Woodbourne Memories

April 16th, 2008 · 23 Comments

The first time I ever got to see Woodbourne in full swing was on the Saturday night of Shabbos Nachamu about 10 years ago. The kids at risk crisis was in full swing and that meant that Woodbourne was as well. Those were the days when kids would drive up 2 hours each way from […]

Hacking Update
Life must go on, besides I am expecting the folks from yeshiva world news to hack me again and this time delete this blog for good. I reason to suspect it was something to do with yeshiva world […]
