Love the graphics! Joe Biden sees his future dismemberment!
Last night while on my long drive,I was listening to Mark Levin; he referred to an article which I found this morning, admittedly it is a few years old.
It is about how Jewish students were treat for admission at prestigious University and similarities with what is being done to Asian students.
** prestigious doesn’t really fit them today**

Perhaps that is the entrance to a DNCCP HQ and is for the mentally handicapped.

Aye-yi-yiiiiiiii!!!!!😖
An accurate assessment of where we are currently.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/11/have_the_democrats_destroyed_our_election_system.html
The establishment government alway works for the party of big government, the DNCCP.
Aided and abetted by their co-conspirators on the other “side”. Government of the people, by the government, for the government.
The Uniparty looks out for itself.
Good evening Sarge! ☺️☺️☺️
How are you doing?
How was your day?
I’m going to read the article Be’Ezras Hashem tomorrow.
I had a crazy day and am still working on healing.
The electric board on my thermostat had to be replaced as well as a wire.
The repairman had to come back.
The steam came back on a short time ago, BH.
I’ve been bundled up all day, LOL.
I also had a few “fires” to put out today.
I’m always happy to help.
I’m awaiting good news from a relative of mine tomorrow.
I’m waiting for it to be finalized.
(I’ve been busy with it since the summer.)
I’ve been up since 4 A.M.
My eyes are hurting.
I have to force myself to stay up another hour and a half if possible.
It’s always so awesome to see you.
Do you have any plans for Thanksgiving?
My best wishes to you with everything!
Doing OK, just damp and overcast for several days now. Absolutely do not like winter! Just have to outlast it. 🤠
That’s how I feel about summer.
Born on the Texas Gulf coast in August, set my thermostat for life! You can have my share of winter! Lol
Funny enough, I too was born in August. So hello, fellow Leo.
👍🤠
I find a fire in the fireplace to be the great blessing of winter.
It gives comfort and solace and a great place to relax and unwind.
Good music and good book complete the scene. I also catch up on correspondence.
I’m a summer person myself Sarge!
Just read the article.
YES.
I feel like we’ve been had.
This is exactly where we were.
Deja vu from 2020.
The Dems perfected the steal.
The Red Tsunami was stolen.
As I have said ad nauseam, unless cheating is prevented, nothing will ever change.
Thank you most kindly for sharing this article.
I really like The American Thinker.
Here’s how I see it. There were those of us who were aware of the system being rigged, which was more than you might think, but unlike most who believed that, actually would not simply accept that “it’s just how it is.” Then there are all the normies who believed all the lies from the pundits about this ot that segment of the populace, or even the American people as a whole, and accepted the narrative of being outnumbered by a bunch of uninformed saps.
There are those of us who were, and are still aware, that such narratives being pushed by the “political experts” in corporate media where just cover stories to mask their own crimes against our very system.
For people like myself, this is frustrating. But, this position also gives one the 40,000 ft view. Where most are right now is the early stages of grief of dealing with the corrupt reality. The good news is that those early stages, which tend to be more paralyzing, are just temporary, and do pass.
And when that happens, that is when we will start acting more like Brazil, who just suffered a stolen election, and peacefully take to the streets. And that is when things change, and we get our country back.
“…Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security….”
Hopefully peacefully anyway.
“Beware the anger of a patient man”…

That appies to the democrats as well. They are the ones who used loan forgiveness to lure votes and then had the courts throw it out. Now the democrats buy that the courts were the problem when in fact it was all a ruse.

That might last till January, then the regime will do anything to raise the prices and blame the new congress.

https://www.self.com/story/tampon-company-included-a-trans-man-in-their-campaign-to-end-period-shame
The insanity increases, now Tampax has ads featuring trans men.
They should have used Hulk Hogan and “I don’t have time to bleed”. Lol
Arnold Swatzeneger : “if it bleeds, we can kill it”. Lol
There are no trans people. They just try to convince everyone their insanity is acceptable.
The latter sure showed himself to be a real “girlie man.” LOL
Arnold is probably on his own apology tour for ever uttering the term, “girly man”, LOLOLOL!
Or his role in the “transphobic” Kindergarten cop where the little boy said: ” boys have a penis, girls have a vagina”, transphobe, transphobe, transphobe, the actor that played the little boy should never work again. lol
The poor young man is being doxxed by LGBTQ’ers as we speak!
Even though I am so done with Ah-Nuld, that was a funny movie.
That would not surprise me in the least.
Hello to you, everyone. I hope that each of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving full of peace, and joy. Love, Sarah. I’ve not forgotten you at all. I hold each of you in great friendship and admiration.
Hi SarahAnn and all the best to you!
Thanks , Tony! It’s always good to see you. I hope that you’re well and happy.
May your Holiday be extraordinary and enjoyable.
The same to you, Sapper.
Wishing you and Harold and your entire family, a very happy and healthy Thanksgiving! 💞💞💞
The same for you, my dear friend! It’s always good to see you and I hope that you enjoy good health and happiness in every way! Bless you! 🤗🤗🤗💞💞💞
Happy Thanksgiving Sarah!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you too, John !!!
US supreme court allows Congress to view Trump’s tax returns
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/nov/22/supreme-court-trump-tax-returns-congress-house
[Bad Man]
It is a felony to leak a person’s tax information, but, that is exactly what they will do and no one will be charged.
Cough, cough schiffty.
Anyone who believes that congress has not seen his tax returns have missed how congress works.
The dirty and corrupt IRS probably put them into their grubby paws years ago.
More nothing burgers coming up!

Peace will come when there is no more government.
No government would equal total anarchy, the smallest government possible, with states doing most of the work would be great.
BINGO.
That’s from Judaism.
Tractate Avos 3:2:
“Rabbi Hanina, the vice-high priest said: pray for the welfare of the government, for were it not for the fear it inspires, every man would swallow his neighbor alive.”
As long as there is government there will be dissatification with said government. Someone will be screwed. Hence peace can only come from no government.
Without government, power will be controlled by those with the least humanity and the most guns.
No matter the situation, there will ALWAYS be dissatisfied people and there will always be people taking advantage of others.
Governments only real purpose is conflict resolution. Basically a court system. Anything else is just government overreach, forced control.
The governments only legitimate purpose is conflict resolution. Basically a court system. Anything else is government overreach and forced control
With governments the world is controlled by the ones with the most guns and the biggest weapons.
So glad Kari Lake did not concede.
So far it is paying off.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc1-leEEVsM
This is a great video.
I’m so very grateful that Lake didn’t concede.
Hobbs is analogous to the fox “guarding” the hen house.
It’s absolutely outrageous.
Like I have said before, Lake has more…. Err… Guts… Than most Republican males out there.
But she is not the only one in Arizona fighting back.
I think I’ll post a video I was watching yesterday that should also be encouraging on that same subject.

That’s happened to me a couple of times. And yes, it was indeed my lucky day.
I have had a few show up, I am hoping a good mouser shows up.
Cats are good creatures. I had one who would make eye contact with me via the mirror’s reflection and she’ trill to get my attention. Never meowed, but made that ‘urrf’ sound. And was a heck of a mouser!

@disqus_bULCnI0MIm:disqus, I normally don’t do this, but if I can explain it to you:
I am attaching your postings to me. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a185e38f06ecbdb348089748346f68b5035b1d5257c0ffc655e68c7037d113ea.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9896aad1d328af3f3561266094047ff99d15a4182dd0fa231d6cdff03ef0fafa.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/291087072e442c011d8f7bc0b9fa734316d8da4e7ac12e96ed8ba62776383f43.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1f4d8aaa88a8665f53ca2d234dc41509be79e07930a827ac5db650e119ca72f1.png
Here’s the thing.
We’re told that The Almighty G-d of Israel is ONE.
Deuteronomy 6:4.
“Hear O’ Israel. The L-rd is our G-d, the L-rd is ONE.” (Emphasis added.). That’s our most cherished creed.
We say it five times a day in our prayers.
Isaiah 43:11 “I, I, am the L-rd and besides for Me there is no other Savior.”
(💥💥💥 BOOM!)
Numbers 23:19, Samuel l 15:29, and Hosea 11:9 declare that G-d is NOT a man. He doesn’t lie or change His Mind.
I BELIEVE G-D.
His track record is impeccable.
He always keeps His Promises.
I NEVER want or desire anything or anyone else.
To quote my very dear friend @Sarahlacubana:disqus “HASHEM IS EVERYTHING.”
CORRECT.
Trust me when I tell you that my life is all about being divinely driven, every single day of my life.
I feel Hashem with me every moment.
I talk to him in pro forma prayers and informally several times a day.
You err in that you are self-projecting your feelings onto Jews.
We have EVERYTHING.
WE, are eternally Hashem’s beloved and Chosen People.
Orthodox Jews, are Jews who keep Torah.
I am a Torah Jew.
You need to understand something else, what you explained to me is IDOLATRY for a Jew.
I cannot sugarcoat it.
For a JEW, it is one of the three cardinal sins for which a Jew must forfeit his life rather than transgress. (The other two, is adultery and murder. (Self-defense isn’t murder.))
Since there are thousands of sects to Christianity, I was fascinated to know what you believe in.
Please don’t feel sorry for me.
I’m exceedingly blessed beyond measure.
I am very happy with the life that I live.
It’s what Hashem wants from me.
His Opinion is the only one that matters.
I know what that is from TANACH.
He authored it, and it’s gorgeous.
I read every scripture you referenced from my KJV Bible because I love the word of God and believe every word. The Lord God Almighty is the living God, God of gods, King of kings and Lord of lords, and none is higher. Twice He said that He is a jealous God, so I avoid idolatry, too, because I don’t want to hurt or upset Him.
I have a question about Genesis 3:22, ” And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us,” Who do you think the “us” is? How do your scriptures translate that verse?
BTW I do not belong to any sect or denomination nor do I refer to myself as “Christian” because the meaning of the word has been watered down to mean “a nice guy.” Instead I relate to God as my loving Father who has adopted me into His forever family (1John 3:1-2, Galatians 4:6). Like you, what matters is what HE says of me, not what others say.
You are the first Jewish person I have conversed with about beliefs. I appreciate your educating me about its tenets. I’m glad that you seem so content.
” Content” is an understatement when referring to PCM, she is a very devoted ✡️ Jew, she has taught me much about Judaism.
Note: there are a few of us here that are not Jewish , but we respect Israel and the Jewish people.
I’m not even Jewish, but she has become my unofficial Rabbi. LOL
(Yes, I know there are no female rabbis in Judaism. That’s part of the joke.)
And as Rabbi Daniel Lapin has said on his show numerous times, everyone needs a Rabbi, even if they are not Jewish. I know I learned a lot form him too, and not just about Judaism.
My first wife was Jewish, but not a devoted one, my oldest daughter is about to finish her service to Israel.
Good morning!
ROTFL! 😂😂😂
They make mighty fine border fences, too!
They need them!, so do we, but, we do not really have them.
The trailers stacked two high with concertina wire atop seemed to work in the interim. Texas says it will build its own wall. People from all over America will chip in, too.
We have zero problem sending billions a week to Ukraine, while our own nation is infiltrated. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9aa089329359a8e7623f16ce1a641e011b64adfc8a35c6893df111296cfea6d0.jpg
Agreed, friend. Illegals keep switching names and family units, swapping kids back and forth in order to get maximum food stamps, so not even the FDA which issues EBT cards can’t say how many there are. Plus kids get 2+ meals a day at public schools courtesy of our property taxes which is double-dipping if you ask me.
It was bad policy for Biden to end Trump’s protocol of a DNA data base in order to match up true relatives. Poor kids must wonder who their real parents are, and are taught to lie like rugs. I bet they all know how to acquire fentanyl. Deport them all!
Thanks for letting me blow off steam, pal. I’m signing off so have a good night!
Worse… Many of those kids are being trafficked. Democrats are sick evil commies.
Good morning, WT. Without the DNA database, there’s no telling how often kids get recycled over the border with different family units. Was dismayed at reports claiming sleeping toddlers found with groups sneaking over the border were actually drugged to keep them quiet! You wonder if they ever find mommy again.
While I’m waiting for PCM to answer my question, have been reading other comments and find several clever good-humored posters. Hope you have a good Wednesday, my friend.
You will certainly find many good humored posters here. Wait until you meet our site owner, Bill Smith. FYI: He loves to put hidden meanings in the page graphics, and have us guess what they are.
Again, welcome, and glad you found your way here.
Like I said when I came in the door, I wanted to celebrate the shellacking of a vile member of Congress with others having likeminds, and no one downvoted me, lol. Have a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
I will also recommend tex’s place, except it is on Hyvor, not discus.
Thank you. And to you as well.
This particular post looks exactly like something that I would have written., to include the double -dipping.
Thank you, Sapper. I may be retired but feel the pinch. Wis has raised property taxes by 25% the past 2 years in order to feed school kids who should not be here, and to pay for bilingual translators in every classroom.
We have a small school district that is close to where I live, they bragged about 54 languages being spoken in the school, all I hear is a minimum of 54 paid translators.
The town has a population of under 2,000.
The zero liability voters in Missouri love to vote for property tax increases because the not only do not pay them, they get a check = to the property taxes that their landlord paid for their unit.
Don’t you wonder whether translators are illegal aliens, too?
We had a Chinese translator, who translated for one child, when he graduated she was going to be out of a job, so she ADOPTED a Chinese child, and got continued employment.
Good grief, sounds exploitive. It’s high time that English becomes our national language, and insist that students enrolling in public schools be fluent in English.
Nothing pisses me off more than the “aqui” vote signs outside the polls.
I could see tenants getting a receipt, but cash? Nice windfall. Not as good as last year’s moratorium on rent but still they own nothing and are happy, who knew?
The state “refunds” the taxes paid by the landlord to low income tenants.
If an apartment building has 4 units, the state sends them a check for 25% of the property taxes paid by their landlord.
Thank you, Sapper. I may be retired but feel the pinch. Wis has raised property taxes by 25% the past 2 years in order to feed school kids who should not be here, and to pay for bilingual translators in every classroom.
You can feel free to blow off steam.
That was an excellent rant.
The real estate taxes in NJ are sky high for the same reason.
You’re extremely kind.
It’s an honor.
Truly.
You absolutely NAILED it!
In my response hereinabove, I wrote: “I’m more than content.

Good afternoon!
GOD’S POINT OF VIEW
It should surely be fascinating to explore what the Creator Himself had to say about the subject.
A good way to begin the presentation of God’s point of view is with the following passage of Maimonides:
Every human being has control over himself. If he wants to push himself towards the right path and become a tzaddik (holy man) he is able to do so. If he wants to go down the wrong path and be a rasha (evil man) he is able to do so. This is what the Torah writes: Behold man has become like the Unique One among us knowing good and bad: and now, lest he put forth his hand and take from the Tree of Life and eat and live forever. (Genesis 3:22)
That is to say: This species man is unique in the universe and there is no other creature like him in the respect of 1) being able to determine what is right and what is wrong through the use of his own thought processes without any outside guidance; and 2) being able to do as he wishes without anyone being able to stop him. Seeing that this is so, there is a distinct possibility that he may choose to eat from the Tree of Life if he is left where he is in Paradise; therefore God banished him. (Maimonides, Laws of Repentance, 5,1)
(A careful reading of the text will reveal that the Garden of Eden contained two special trees. The famous one is the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, whose forbidden fruit prompted the commission of the first sin. The other special tree was the Tree of Life (Genesis 3:22). The fruit of this tree was not originally forbidden as Adam was created as an immortal anyway. But after the edict of mortality was imposed on him following his sin, God naturally did not want him to partake of its fruit and thus reverse His edict.)
But surely, if God is able to banish man from Paradise then He is equally able to prevent him from reaching out to eat from the Tree of Life even if he were allowed to stay. What is the conceptual difference between putting the Tree of Life out of man’s reach by banishing him from Paradise or leaving him where he is but preventing him from reaching out to the Tree of Life by force?
In answer, what Maimonides is telling us is that even God cannot interfere directly with man’s freedom of action. Such interference would need to assume one of two forms:
God could program man’s mind so that he is not tempted to reach for the Tree of Life. This He cannot do, as man must be capable of deciding on his own what is right and what is wrong. Or,
God could forcibly restrain man from surrendering to his temptation to partake of the Tree of Life. But God cannot do this either, this sort of interference would also nullify man’s free will.
The conclusion:
Nullifying man’s free will amounts to destroying him, because the ability to determine his own choices is not one of the facets of man; it is his very essence.
As God was not prepared to destroy man, He was forced to transport him to an environment where he could be allowed the fullest freedom of will and yet still not be able to eat from the Tree of Life.
Thus, man’s free will is his human essence according to the Torah view. To be human is to be free to make up your own mind and implement your decisions. A restriction on human freedom is a negation of humanity itself.
Indeed, the first interaction between man and God described in the Torah revolves around reward and punishment and the consequences of making free will choices. The present state of humanity and the universe it occupies is presented by the Torah as the end result of man’s losing the first battle with the Satan.
It is through our own act of choice that we were driven out of Paradise and were condemned to a mortal existence. The Torah emphasizes that man’s mortality and his life of struggle and travail was a matter of his own choosing. It was not the type of existence imposed by God at creation.
What I just posted hereinabove, is an excerpt of an excellent read.
The Determinism of Free Will by Rabbi Noson Weisz
Here’s the link for the complete article:
https://aish.com/48949011/
FYI, there are no capital letters in Hebrew. The Church had an agenda for capitalizing “L-RD.”
It always has an agenda and still does.
I need you to understand that per G-D, I reject the entire Xtian Bible. It is not Divine.
I’ve been sick this week, so I am not in my best form for this.
But I think I can do well enough.
I inadvertently forgot to mention that Judaism is the only religion with a mass revelation. Over THREE MILLION Jews heard Hashem speak.
There are no physical attributes to Hashem in any way whatsoever.
That is one of the foundations of Judaism.
(Before I forget to mention it, the KJV is the most inaccurate “translation” of TANACH.)
Deuteronomy 4:12:
“The L-rd spoke to you out of the midst of the fire; you heard the sound of the words, but saw no image, just a voice.”
Only Hashem could guarantee that there would never again be a mass revelation or a hoax that could be perpetrated!
Deuteronomy 4:32-34:
For ask now regarding the early days that were before you, since the day that G-d created man upon the earth, and from one end of the heavens to the other end of the heavens, whether there was anything like this great thing, or was the likes of it heard?
Did ever a people hear G-d’s voice speaking out of the midst of the fire as you have heard, and live?
Or has any god performed miracles to come and take him a nation from the midst of a[nother] nation, with trials, with signs, and with wonders, and with war and with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great awesome deeds, as all that the L-rd your G-d did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Deuteronomy 4:35:
You have been shown, in order to know that the L-rd He is G-d; there is none else besides Him.”
(Through EMPIRICAL knowledge!)
Deuteronomy 4:36:
“From the heavens, He let you hear His voice to instruct you, and upon the earth He showed you His great fire, and you heard His words out of the midst of the fire,”
Deuteronomy 4:39:
“And you shall know this day and consider it in your heart, that the L-rd He is G-d in heaven above, and upon the earth below; there is none else.”
How much more clear could Hashem have made it?!
Moreover, the Jewish People are a witness people and Hashem’s Chosen Servant.
Isaiah 43:10-11
(We’re often referred to as if we are one person because the Jewish People share a unique and singular destiny.)
“”You are My witnesses,” says the L-rd, “and My servant whom I chose,” in order that you know and believe Me, and understand that I am He; before Me no god was formed and after Me none shall be.”
(The Servant in Isaiah is the nation of Israel!!)
I, I am the L-rd, and besides Me there is no Savior.
“I told and I saved, and I made heard and there was no stranger among you, and you are My witnesses,” says the L-rd, “and I am G-d.”
You’re very welcome and I appreciate your courteous way of asking me.
It’s very much appreciated.
I’m more than content.
There is no adjective to describe my happiness of being a Torah Jew.
I didn’t get to choose the fantastic family (with very holy lineages on both sides of my family) that I was born into.
Hashem chose me as one of His Chosen People.
I choose Him every day of my life, very lovingly serve Him and keep His beautiful Torah.
Please feel free to ask me questions.
People ask me questions all of the time.
If I neglected to answer something inadvertently, please just ask.
I was offline almost the entire morning so I couldn’t address this earlier.
I somehow managed to scratch my eye.
(Never a dull moment. 😂🤣. I have no clue as to how it happened. When I woke up, my eye felt like it was on fire. I’m going back to my optometrist Friday morning, Be’Ezras Hashem (with the help of Hashem). The drops that he gave me are really helping the pain, in addition to the Tylenol and Advil. I’m exceedingly grateful. 🥲)
Oh my, you believe that every word in your scriptures is divinely inspired, and I believe every word in the KJV Bible is, yet they differ substantially, and I’ll tell you why: According to Deuteronomy 29:29 Almighty God exercised his prerogative and revealed secrets to Paul, secrets which in other ages were not made known unto the sons of men (Ephesians 3:5) and that new knowledge changed everything to do with how God relates to men.
So, Rebecca, I’ll just agree to disagree, and leave you with a list of what God made me into after making me a new man the moment I believed the gospel of Jesus described in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4.
Thank you for explaining yourself to me. I prayed for your eye to heal, G-d bless. Shalom, Rebecca
[p.s. If you don’t want to see my 3 misspellings, refresh the page, lol]
You’re missing the point.
Ergo, I will reiterate.
The final prophet was Malachi.
Prophecy was disappearing until the true Moshiach comes.
What were our final instructions?!
Malachi 3:22 “Keep in remembrance the teaching of Moses, My servant-the laws and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb (Sinai) for all Israel.”
Keep Torah.
Ecclesiastes 12:13 “The end of the matter, everything having been heard, fear G-d and keep His commandments, for this is the entire (duty of) man.”
The verse in Deuteronomy has NOTHING to do with Paul.
Idolatry is one of the sins that can be committed by thoughts, alone.
Only Hashem knows the thoughts of man.
Ironically you quoted a verse that deals with idolatry.
The verse:
“The hidden things belong to the L-rd, our G-d, but the revealed things apply to us and to our children forever: that we must fulfill all the words of this Torah.”
Idolatry is a sin that can be committed by thoughts and actions.
Since only HASHEM knows the thoughts of man, it is in his realm alone to issue the consequences for these things that are hidden to man.
Where someone is caught committing idolatry after being warned, and witnessed by two kosher witnesses, that idolator is put to death as idolatry is a capital offense in Judaism.
Since in that situation, the sin is revealed, it is incumbent (while the Jewish People had the Sanhedrin) for the community to ensure that justice is carried out.
We are to show no mercy to those who commit idolatry.
Deuteronomy 13:7-12:
“If your brother, the son of your mother, tempts you in secret or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your embrace, or your friend, who is as your own soul saying, “Let us go and worship other gods, which neither you, nor your forefathers have known.”
Of the gods of the peoples around you, [whether] near to you or far from you, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth;
You shall not desire him, and you shall not hearken to him; neither shall you pity him, have mercy upon him, nor shield him.
But you shall surely kill him, your hand shall be the first against him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
And you shall stone him with stones so that he dies, because he sought to lead you astray from the L-rd, your G-d, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
And all Israel shall listen and fear, and they shall no longer do any evil such as this in your midst.”
Who told you that Paul is in this verse?
It’s INCORRECT.
Now with regard to your one quote from TANACH:
Jeremiah 31:3 “I am loved with an everlasting love.”
The entire verse. In TANACH, it’s verse 2.
“From long ago, the L-rd appeared to me; With everlasting love have I loved you; therefore have I drawn you to Me with loving-kindness.”
That verse is talking about the Jewish People.
It has nothing to do with gentiles whatsoever.
Context is always key, by the way.
All of the other quotes are from the Christian Bible.
You are free to believe them.
I’m a Reaganite Conservative.
In addition to how @dr_darko:disqus so very aptly and succinctly described this blog yesterday, I want to make another point.
The owner of this blog, @nicetomeetyou2:disqus, is a Noachide.
That means that his religion is Judaism.
He is just not a member of the Jewish People.
He also understands that Jews need to remain Jews.
In this point in time, three active members including myself are Jews.
Three others are on temporary hiatus.
Thank you very much for your kind wishes.
It’s very much appreciated.
As I stated before, I am a Torah Jew and Reaganite Conservative.
I believe that people should have the freedom to practice their own religion as they see fit (as long as it doesn’t include crimes against humanity).
Full disclosure: I do anti-missionary work (and Jewish outreach).
Judaism doesn’t recruit, never has, and never will.
I am not trying to convert you.
To be candid, it’s offensive when I get told that my Bible is incomplete on its own, and/or that I am being deprived by not accepting the “gifts” that Christianity has to offer.
When one lives a life of truth, one feels complete, whole, and extremely happy.
Part of our morning blessings is to thank Hashem that we’re Jewish.
I savor that blessing with all of my heart and soul (along with so many others).
I hope this posting flowed and made sense, because today was a very long one.
I didn’t have time to check my notifications, but wanted to send you a response.
Have a happy and healthy Thanksgiving.
While I’m in disagreement with some of your points, Rebecca, you know I cannot express it without it being considered as religious dispute, which is against site rules. So I decided this site isn’t a good fit for me and won’t be returning. Shalom and goodbye.
That’s up to you.
Farewell.
I believe Tex’s place might be a good fit for you.
A coffee lounge with open dialog is more to my liking whereas Tex’s was more like a tavern, a little too rowdy for me. But I’m not looking for a place, don’t have time to goof off much. That reminds me, is Goofy still there?
Yep.
She was a good wingman for Tex when I used to visit, and had spunk, too..! I pretty much stick to Disgust, don’t know why.
Hyvor took a while to accept to put it gently. Lol

Hi Friend, Happy Thanksgiving Day!

@disqus_bULCnI0MIm:disqus, I normally don’t do this, but if I can explain it to you:
I am attaching your postings to me. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a185e38f06ecbdb348089748346f68b5035b1d5257c0ffc655e68c7037d113ea.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9896aad1d328af3f3561266094047ff99d15a4182dd0fa231d6cdff03ef0fafa.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/291087072e442c011d8f7bc0b9fa734316d8da4e7ac12e96ed8ba62776383f43.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1f4d8aaa88a8665f53ca2d234dc41509be79e07930a827ac5db650e119ca72f1.png
Here’s the thing.
We’re told that The Almighty G-d of Israel is ONE.
Deuteronomy 6:4.
“Hear O’ Israel. The L-rd is our G-d, the L-rd is ONE.” (Emphasis added.). That’s our most cherished creed.
We say it five times a day in our prayers.
Isaiah 43:11 “I, I, am the L-rd and besides for Me there is no other Savior.”
(💥💥💥 BOOM!)
Numbers 23:19, Samuel l 15:29, and Hosea 11:9 declare that G-d is NOT a man. He doesn’t lie or change His Mind.
I BELIEVE G-D.
His track record is impeccable.
He always keeps His Promises.
I NEVER want or desire anything or anyone else.
To quote my very dear friend @Sarahlacubana:disqus “HASHEM IS EVERYTHING.”
CORRECT.
Trust me when I tell you that my life is all about being divinely driven, every single day of my life.
I feel Hashem with me every moment.
I talk to him in pro forma prayers and informally several times a day.
You err in that you are self-projecting your feelings onto Jews.
We have EVERYTHING.
WE, are eternally Hashem’s beloved and Chosen People.
Orthodox Jews, are Jews who keep Torah.
I am a Torah Jew.
You need to understand something else, what you explained to me is IDOLATRY for a Jew.
I cannot sugarcoat it.
For a JEW, it is one of the three cardinal sins for which a Jew must forfeit his life rather than transgress. (The other two, is adultery and murder. (Self-defense isn’t murder.))
Since there are thousands of sects to Christianity, I was fascinated to know what you believe in.
Please don’t feel sorry for me.
I’m exceedingly blessed beyond measure.
I am very happy with the life that I live.
It’s what Hashem wants from me.
His Opinion is the only one that matters.
I know what that is from TANACH.
He authored it, and it’s gorgeous.

I borrowed it from trackman. Lol
That name sounds familiar. I think he may have been one our regulars on the President Trump Channel. Either that, or I am confusing him with someone else.
If it is the same one I am thinking of, I remember him challenging some libTARD troll, who went by the moniker, Evil Monkey, to a fistfight, and then showing literal receipts to prove the guy was a no show. LOL
I only have encountered him on Conservatics and Tex’s place as far a I remember.
I remember that. Evil Monkey is a coward and a blowhard.
Wee Willy hasn’t shown his face in a few days. Life is good!
Though giving him the online shellacking was fun! 😆
Hopefully he finally succumbed to the boosters.
Now that would be awesome. Gus probably will in time!
I can’t believe that guy is supposedly 60. He comes off like a dumb pre-teen.
Like a guy I knew by the name Crab Apples. Boasted of his alleged 140 IQ and cursed like a 5th grader. He hated gun owners and threatened to sue me for slamming him. 😄
I’ve encountered fools like that before. They are so smart, but want to sue you for hurting their fee-fees. LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
I’ve always found that trolls who boasted of having high IQs are overcompensating for their inferiority complexes.
Speaking of fee-fees, still no word from Wee Willy.
Hope springs eternal!
Salutations!

Do you have plans for Thanksgiving?

She actually graduated a little while ago, but, I thought it was funny that she is sitting on the top of the helicopter. Lol
It IS funny and it made me smile from ear to ear!
Was this warrant officer graduation, Sapper 9?
No, she is a commissioned officer, this was flight school graduation.
She graduated law school before joining the Army, what a strange change of course.
That is awesome! I would be an incredibly proud father!
She was always an over achiever , taking advanced placement classes ans maintaining a 4.0 throughout both college and law school, her twin sister is sweet, but an under achiever. Lol

Jerusalem bombings don’t mark beginning of third intifada – analysis
The two bombings in Jerusalem have people thinking about the two intifadas, but the circumstances are different now.

I have great difficulty in making sense of the garbled mess that is the writing of Herb Keinon.
The impression id that the terrorists can go out with impunity, but I suppose it is more subtle than that.
Not much of a stair in the media over here.
Good evening Tony!
How did they arrive at that conclusion?
I’ve been offline most of the day.

Happy early Thanksgiving to you and your family!
I remember when he posted it.
Hi Rivka! Hope all is well with you.
Yes, I thought this was worth a re-share. I’ve gotten away from some of the later music and decided to change up my music library with some 80s gothic stuff. Even some of the hardcore stuff from the 80s is vastly superior to what we have now. Especially when you consider that country musicians are becoming ‘woke’ and infusing their music with hip-hop.
It was a very interesting day.
I woke up this morning feeling like I was being stabbed in my left eye.
To make a long story short, during the night I somehow managed to scratch my eye. It’s a big and long linear scratch. I saw the images.
BH, my optometrist had some drops to grant me adequate pain relief.
I’m also taking Motrin and Tylenol simultaneously as he instructed.
I’m very grateful that I was able to get the pain under control.
Hashem is exceedingly kind.
How have you been doing?
What are your plans for Thanksgiving?
We’re going to be home.
I’m serving chicken with roasted potatoes and salad.
No one in my family likes turkey.
Not many Turkey lovers in our family either.
I know I myself can’t stand it. And I love how people try to say “you just never had it prepared right.” Really? They are sure of that? And even if that is true, doesn’t mean I want it.
That’s so very true!
LOL!
People tell me that regarding gefilte fish and chopped liver.
Kale is another “just say NO” to.
Some foods are just not happening in my menu.
😁😁😁
Kale is a punishment. It should only be served at Gitmo.
As far as I am concerned, that was Hashem’s reason for creating it. LOL
😂😂😂👍👍👍🎯🎯🎯
I’m on my own this Thanksgiving. I’ll take time to reflect on my life and count my blessings. With luck in the New Year, I’ll gain full employment.
I’m sorry about your eye injury. I hope it will heal quickly!
I’m wishing you a happy and healthy one.
May it be the beginning of a new and beautiful chapter in your life.
Yeah, what is up with that?
Country and Hip-Hop mix about as well as chocolate covered sardines. LOL
I never have the problem with Jewish music.
It’s just fabulous with so many fabulous songs and talented singers.
The big problem in secular music is the “pop” aspect of it, when big money labels get involved. Independent music, thankfully, is free from that influence, but, promotion is very so-so.
You may be able to carve out an okay living for yourself as an independent artist, but you really have to work overtime putting yourself out there since you have no agent working on your behalf. But even then, independent musicians don’t get rich like those who sell out to the hit factories of Hollywood and NYC.
That’s very true about labels in the secular world.
My understanding is that there are no Jewish singers on any kind of label.
They’re all independent and work very hard.
You either love the music, or you love the fame. Those after the fame, end up on the big labels.
Those who do it for the love of the music, self-release, or go to indie labels.
There’s actually some interesting stories out there about the better known indie labels, and how they were like a community of their own for independent musicians of their genres. My dad did something very similar with instro-surf bands for years. He loved it, and those were some fun days.
Or peanut butter and mayonnaise! 🤢
UGH…
Country and hip hop mixed exists.
https://youtu.be/U-3FnLOAcPU
Funny enough, I actually heard some of it before. I am guessing it is an “acquired taste.” LOL
It definitely is not for me.
Thank you, Rivka! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!
Thanks, John, and a Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
I heard some really good live versions of that song on YouTube, where Ronny actually shouts out certain lyrics towards the latter part of the song, and you can really hear the frustration and anger he felt when he wrote it.
Happy Thanksgiving, Weary Traveler!
Hope all is well. I’m going to have to update my music library with some more of his music.
I’ll have to email you a list of some bands to check out either later tonight, or tomorrow when I am more free.
In the mean time, a newer video from that same Xymox album for your enjoyment.

This is a fantastic video! This music is extremely moving and I feel like I’m in a Boston basement bar, back when the Rathskeller was the coolest place to be in Kenmore Square.
And the lyrics are good too…
We had some cool places out here too. I think my favorite was One Step Beyond in Santa Clara. My brother and I went to a few concerts there.
There was also a place in Palto Alto my brother went, mostly to see concerts that was called “The Edge.”
We saw Front Line Assembly.

Good afternoon George!
I’m not a subscriber and cannot read the Washington Compost (that’s not a criticism).
My Urgent Care PA told me on Monday that people are having terrible side effects from the oral Covid medication as well.
He warns people not to take it or get the vaccines.
He was against it from the beginning.
I reconnected with an old friend this past Shabbos in Cleveland.
She took the vaccine to keep her teaching job in the Board of Education in NYC.
She has had terrible side effects that effect only women.
We knew this was poison.
😔😔😔
They are taking the WRONG ORAL MEDS, the ones that work are only pennies, while the dangerous ones are very expensive, I trust Ivermectin, HCQ, and the Zelenko protocol and they have been around for a LONG time.
CORRECT on all fronts.
I did the Zelenko protocol and it really works.
It didn’t prevent the post Covid side effects, but I am ALIVE.
Despite the awful post Covid side effects that I experienced, I have ZERO regrets for not getting jabbed.
ZERO.
This is why they wanted to force vaccines on all, they wanted to get rid of the CONTROL GROUP of the pure bloods; there are certain BATCHES that had more side effects than others, I wonder if that was by design?

@dr_darko:disqus, I thought of you when I saw this.
I vet my Twitter followers.
One had this video.
Jenna Ellis is depraved and evil.
That reminds me of the sick garbage that came out of the mouths of people like Jerry Falwell after 9/11. An innocent victim is an innocent victim.
This is like I have said 1,000 times over; many of the Atheists I have spoken to, when you ask them why they reject God, and they tell you that they would never worship a god who …., they are, 999 times out of a thousand, describing the Christian god. In which case, can you blame them?
Yeah, I don’t worship that god either, because THAT god is deranged sociopath. Again, look at who Christianity’s true founder was; a lying murderous thief who called himself an “apostle.” Only a murderous lying thieves sees no problem in harming innocents who don’t do what they want. And only murderous lying thieves use coercion and fear.
Exactly.
An innocent victim is an innocent victim.
Those like Jenna Ellis are insane and deranged as well.
I concur absolutely!
Exactly. She is such a disappointment on so many levels.
My thoughts precisely.
I never could have imagined how sick she is.
I should try to be fair and say not every Christian feels the same way she does, but it disgusts me when self-righteous people want to paint everyone with a broad brush.
What if the people who were murdered where Christians, and did live up to her standards of one? Does that make it more tragic and evil?
If she can say this about other Christians, I can only imagine how cheap the lives of those of us who don’t accept her man god are. She’s no better than a Jihadi or a woke leftist.
Good morning WT!
ABSOLUTELY, there are good Christians in the world.
The ones on this blog are a sterling example.
Yes.
In her world, if the victims would have been Christians who subscribed to her mental derangement, the murder would have been a huge tragedy.
I morally disagree with the lifestyle of the LGBTQALPHABET crew ; however, I do not think that changes the tragedy for their families.

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/11/washington_post_manipulates_events_surrounding_israels_creation.html
I know it is hard to believe but the Washington Post is creating a false narrative surrounding the creation of Israel.
“The Post’s insidious omission of the Arab attack on Israel after its creation in 1948 was clearly calculated to suppress pro-Israel sympathy. It is unethical journalism by any standard. Why is the Post trying to sway its readers against Israel?”
Because it’s an antisemetic Leftist rag.
I’m sure this news will come as a huge shock to everyone.
On another note, are you having a huge family get together for Thanksgiving?
We have several over Chanukah.
No, my son is having his holiday with his wife’s parents, I am spending a few days with my wife to be, and have volunteered to pull a road shift with the sheriff’s Department tomorrow night; however , we will have a get together on Friday.
That sounds wonderful!
Enjoy in the best of health, always.
Did your wife to be, coordinate all of her friends and relatives in three continents for your wedding?
She has it planned, but won’t tell me when or where, my kids know , but they won’t tell me. Lol
I gave her a small list of people that I want to attend, I consider this to be her day.
My kids really like her, but told me they are afraid to cross her by telling me. 🙄
Her father if from Portugal, her mother from Brazil, she was born and raised in Argentina , and owns a business here, so I have no idea, except it will be in the Spring.
Oh, for crying out loud! 😑🙄
They’re afraid to cross her.
No judgments on my part.
It’s extremely magnanimous of you to consider it to be her day.
Personally, I was always under the impression that it’s a day that belongs to the couple.
But that decision is between you both.
I come from a totally different world in this regard.
To reiterate, no judgments.
I wish you tremendous happiness and health.
May everything work out very smoothly in every single manner.
They really like her, but, no, they do not want to cross her, should I be scared? Sarcasm
When she asked for my input, I was pretty much useless, so now it is her joke on me and I love it.
She is barely over 100 lbs, of little bad azz I guess. Lol
She is a perfectionist, so it will go very smooth.
I didn’t think for a nanosecond that YOU would be scared. LOL!
“When she asked for my input, I was pretty much useless, so now it is her joke on me and I love it.”
Ah, you left that part out. 😉🙃
“She is barely over 100 lbs, of little bad azz I guess. Lol”
I’ve seen couples that have tremendous height differences.
I have two close friends whose husbands are an entire foot taller than they are.
One of my cousin’s daughters is 4″9′. Her husband is 6″2. It’s a riot.
I cannot believe that you don’t know the date. 🙈🙉🙊
My daughter in law is 5 ft 6 inches and my son is 6 ft 7 in plus.
I only have a general timeline but all the people on my small list know and they all assert that I will be very happy. Lol
I have tall genes in my family, but not that tall.
My father is a little less than six foot three and my youngest is six foot three.
My husband is six feet. I am five feet and six inches.
(He’s just perfect for me in every single manner. May you be equally blessed and happy. Height doesn’t define happiness. 😃😄)
It is always nice when a perfect pair is made, and clearly you and your husband are blessed with that; may your union be long and happy.
Good morning!
I couldn’t agree more.
TYVM!
I wish the same for you.
When my dad remarried, he did it the way I would want to do it if I ever tie the knot.
The wedding was small and intimate. Immediate family only. So the only attendees were me, my brother, and my dad’s wife’s two kids. It was very casual = come as you are, and was on the front porch. And in typical Santa Cruz fashion, the minister was this older Italian guy who pulled in to the driveway in a Woodie that had a surf board on the roof rack. LOL The dude was wearing a Hawaiian shirt and Bermuda shorts.
The big deal was the reception. Again, come as you are. Buffet, and some of the surf bands my dad was promoting at the time played for the entertainment. Everyone just kicked back and did their own thing.
That’s how I would want to do it.
I am not sure what her plans are, she is generally a very elaborate person, so I have no idea. Lol
Amazing.
Itamar Ben-Gvir, who is set to become the minister in charge of police under Netanyahu, said the attack meant Israel needed to take a tougher stance on Palestinian violence.
“We must exact a price from terror,” he said at the scene of the first explosion. “We must return to be in control of Israel, to restore deterrence against terror.”

The U.S. is sending another $400 million in ammunition and generators to Ukraine, the White House announced Wednesday, and is pulling the gear from its own stockpiles to get the support to Kyiv as fast as possible as Russia continues to target Ukraine’s energy sources and winter sets in.
Including the latest aid, the U.S. has committed more than $19 billion in weapons and other equipment to Ukraine since Russia attacked on Feb. 24. The new package of aid will be provided through presidential drawdown authority, which allows the Pentagon to take weapons from its own stock and quickly ship them to Ukraine.

The Dems (and RINOS) want to continue destroying America.
And some will be diverted to jordan and bangladesh and to pay for democrat party ads?
Good morning George!
For certain.
Murkowski has been declared the winner in Alaska. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1e89069c80ff435b3ceaa3731f70b2da0878b609c67dc81a51c20bd54a450211.jpg
Errrrrrr
Due to ranked choice voting.
Which was instituted for the benefit of Murkowski

I love this meme!
I’m going to share this Be’Ezras Hashem.
Canada has a dismal record in the World Cup.. today they played remarkably, but still lost to Belgium.
Happy Thanksgiving Bill.
Crypto currency fraud artists is looking like it’ll be the largest fraud ever… makes Enron look like kindergarten.
And where did all the money go? Who know, but many many many millions went to the DEM party. Yes, DEMs showing in the recent elections has started right from the get go, with fraud.
Then the campaign….
Elon Musk literally tweeted that he is shock the more he uncovers… he admits that DEMs could call up twitter, as for their political opponents to be de-platformed and censored, and the twitter employees would gladly oblige.
Then the actual election….
The usual vote harvesting, lost ballots and other funky business going on.
Any objectively honest person would agree that it was rigged.
Our system has been corrupted and manipulated to it’s core.
Very well stated.
The daley machine, democrat party has a history of crooked.
https://blockclubchicago.org/2018/10/24/chicago-and-rigged-elections-the-history-is-even-crazier-than-youve-heard/
Yes, this was most definitely rigged and in a very spectacular manner.
The Dems perfected the art of cheating and no one is stopping them from continuing to do it.
Our votes don’t count anymore.
The United Socialist States of America is in full tyranny mode.
The worst part about it is that the GOP doesn’t put up a fight.
America used to be a great country.
Sigh…
😔😡
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here.
God Bless.
Happy and healthy Thanksgiving.
May Hashem bless you as well!

Tesla stock has tanked recently and is probably a decent investment; however, I will pass on it.

In the past, Musk was the most subsidized man in America.
Happy Thanksgiving vs.
Happy Thanksgiving S9.
The same to you and your family.
Unsurprising.
They’re trying to foist these cars on us.
He’s investing and going along with his agenda.
Good morning/afternoon everyone!

For those celebrating Thanksgiving: Have a very happy and healthy holiday!
Apologies for not being on top of my game this week.
🤦
I wanted to hone in on a very important point in Judaism.
Yes.
There was capital punishment.
HOWEVER, it was rare that it was necessary.
This is because many factors had to be present in order for it to be carried out.
So why does the Torah talk about the consequences in such a strong manner?
Rabbi Tovia Singer gave a great analogy.
(@dr_darko:disqus that was in the video that I sent you about the “wages of sin” by Rabbi Tovia Singer, as you know.)
If you look at a box of cigarettes, it has an extremely strongly worded warning.
WHY?!
To inform the public of the consequences of smoking.
It’s to attempt to make people think very strongly before smoking.
This is the same for the consequences for some of the Commandments listed in the Torah.
(It only lists a few of them in the Torah. Overall, the consequences are listed when Torah is not kept.)
There is cause and effect in the physical world and spiritual realm.
@disqus_bULCnI0MIm:disqus, I inadvertently left out this very important point yesterday.
I think everyone is a little off their game this week with all the holiday stuff. No worries.
You’re very kind.
Very much appreciated!
If you see her last posting, she won’t be back.
Rabbi Tovia Singer said a couple of times as a joke: “Why did G-d create Mormons? So Christians would know what Jews feel like.”
I am actually waiting to use that joke on a Mormon. LOL
You most definitely should! LOL!
Are there any nice restaurants where you can have dinner, or is everything closed?
Had to eat earlier than I wanted, because the only place I liked that was open today, closed at 1pm.
So in typical bachelor fashion, I’ll be baking a frozen pizza. But, on the good side, Marty is on his way to watch American Thought Leaders.
Oh wow!
That IS early!
Please extend my best wishes to Marty.
I will. I just sent you an email in response to your vm mail. Thank you again for your warm holiday wishes.
You’re very welcome always!
I hope you have an enjoyable visit.
Thank you so much.
Good morning!
Please check the posting right on top of yours.
Uh… Wow…
Didn’t I say “welcome” to her twice? Did Fauci manage to change the meaning of that word too, like he did for vaccine, and now “welcome” suddenly means “buzz off”?
I don’t understand these people.
Should I send a loving response?
Feel free.
I don’t get it either.
I’m just about to let her royally have it.
Give me thirty seconds.
I’m just about done.
YGM.
Just saw this…
Going to check it out now.
You should have stopped with your first sentence.
You just couldn’t leave well enough alone.
“They guide people away from sinning, a commendable quest for sure.”
That’s your takeaway from the TANACH?
UNBELIEVABLE.
Torah, is the blueprint authored by The Almighty G-d of Israel, as to how to become the most perfect person possible.
The Commandments, enable a person to become closer to Hashem.
The longest Psalm (119), is in detailed praise of the Torah.
Psalm 19:8-9: “The law of the L-rd is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the L-rd is faithful, making the simple one wise.”
The orders of the L-rd are upright, causing the heart to rejoice; the commandment of the L-rd is clear, enlightening the eyes.”
I AM THE FREE ONE.
I have a personal connection with Hashem.
I am not a slave to my Evil Inclination.
And when I do the wrong thing and sin I, MYSELF, get to make it right with Hashem.
The entire epic Chapter 18 of Ezekiel positively excorciates Christianity’s creeds in great detail.
No Christian was EVER able to give any rebuttal to me regarding it, because one cannot.
Isaiah 45:17 “Israel shall be saved by the L-rd [with] an everlasting salvation; you
shall neither be ashamed nor disgraced to all eternity.”
“However, I find they fall short…”
Your opinion doesn’t matter.
Only HASHEM’S does.
Behold your future shame and disgrace:
Jeremiah 16:19-21: “O’ L-rd, Who are my power and my strength and my refuge in the day of trouble, to You nations will come from the ends of the earth and say, “Only lies have our fathers handed down to us, emptiness in which there is nothing of any avail!
Can a man make gods for himself, and they are no gods?”
Therefore, behold I let them know; at this time I will let them know My power and My might, and they shall know that My Name is the L-rd.”
You most definitely don’t belong here.
The people herein are good and kind.
I wouldn’t describe you as such.
No one here tried to make this Jew feel like two cents.
You didn’t succeed.
I hold the Truth and I KNOW it.
As far as what Tanach and Torah are, that one I am sure I can answer. Tanach is what you would refer to as “The Old Testament”, and Torah is one of the three sections of it, which would be the first five books pertaining to “the law”.
It’s not really any different from how “the gospels”, and the books therein, are a section of your “New Testament.”
Normally I would not interject in to a conversation like this. I’ll let you and PCM argue over the scriptures, as that is not my bag. But since I was partly dragged in to this discussion by another comment you made, I think I need to clarify what I actually said to you, because it seems that you may have misunderstood my comment to you on the previous page when I was making you aware of the house rules here. Especially the part where I explained that this is a Zionist blog, and gave you the definition of Zionism.
The entire point being is that the Jews that come here, are Zionists, and as Zionists, wish to remain Jews. Therefore, if your intention is converting any of the Jews, then you would be correct in your previous assessment that this is not a good fit for you.
As that would be viewed here, as say, how you would likely view an Atheist coming to a Christian blog, stating something along the lines of, “how can such an intelligent person believe …”, which as I am sure you know, is a common talking point among Atheists. I am sure you would take umbrage to someone saying that to you, and rightfully so, even if the Atheist saying it, did not intend it to be so.
As the Christian theologian, C.S. Lewis — I own and have read some of his books and essays — once put it: “To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason, or those who never will to be classed with infants, and domestic animals.” A point he also reiterated in a scene in “The Great Divorce”, which is a story based on what Medieval theologians referred to as “refrugium”, in one of the vignettes that take place in the forecourt of Heaven.
The TL;DR is that this is how Orthodox Jews see it when a Christian tells them that they do not know what they are missing out on, or that their scriptures are incomplete, just like Mormons would say to you, not having the Book of Mormon. It is not taken as lightly as say a coworker or neighbor bragging to you about a delicious steak they had a restaurant the night before, and telling you how wonderful it is by saying to you that ‘you haven’t lived until you had the Filet Mignon at such and such restaurant.’
As to what any of this has to do with Zionism is simply, as I pointed out previously, that if Jews cannot remain Jews, then Israel would no longer be the Jewish state, which can only be interpreted as a form of conquest, much in the same way the Left here in America works to subvert the Bill of Rights and undermine the Federalist papers = invasion from within = conquest, which it would ultimately be if they were to become victorious in their endeavors.
It’s really not different for the Jews here, like PCM, from how you sincerely believe that you must remain a Christian. As you sincerely believe as a Christian that rejecting Christ is a one way ticket to Hell, likewise, Jews sincerely believe the same if they were to worship Christ.
My only dog in this fight, to be perfectly clear, aside from clarifying my previous comment to you, is that I am a strong believer in individual sovereignty. And to also point out how and why this conversation between you two here is getting so heated, which is part of my job as a moderator = to try to enforce house rules.
I generally don’t like playing Hall Monitor, but I am trying to be as fair as possible.
WT I think you’re a good hall monitor since you explain yourself at length, and politely, as well; thank you, sir. I’m sad to see my presence here is causing a commotion, not my intention at all. Nor is “converting” someone my objective–for that is the purview of the Lord and His Spirit since it is He who decides which hearts to open (Acts 16:14). I do like to share the joy I have in the abundant life my heavenly father gives me and wish the same for everyone, which is an act of love.
When I first came here, I thought the site was related to the Jerusalem Post. Does “ntjp” mean NOT the Jerusalem Post? If so, sorry for my misconception. I keep an eye on events in Israel to gauge how God’s timer is winding down.
As far as Israel goes, I consider it a country or a nation (not a state) that is the apple of God’s eye, and look forward to watching its people rejoice on that one day in Zechariah 3:9 when iniquity is removed and every knee will bow to the BRANCH (who according to Phillipians 2:10 is Jesus, but PCM believes my belief is idolatry). Given that disparity and PCM’s ill health, I wish I could have lifted her countenance but think only my disappearance will soothe her ruffled feathers And here I thought we had made a connection, sad. I won’t darken your door again unless in response to a comment from your site.
BTW I never refer to myself as “Christian” as I already said, but you keep reducing me to one; however, I take no offense. I’m really no one of importance but my Father is the King of kings. God bless and Shalom WT, hope to run into you again someday.
“Does “ntjp” mean NOT the Jerusalem Post? If so, sorry for my misconception.”
Correct. As the Jerusalem Post became a very left wing Newspaper, and much less pro-Israel. The site’s original founders were regulars in the comment section of J-Post articles, and this blog was started in protest to the J-Post’s more left wing editorial positions.
Although some here would argue that since American politics has dominated much of the conversation here, we should be NtWP = Not The Washington Post.
I didn’t mean to offend calling you a Christian, as you present New Testament scripture and refer to the teachings of Christ in your life, I just put two and two together.
TY.
That was a very reasonable conclusion on your part.
Well stated .
Thank you, Sapper. I hope you and yours had a terrific Thanksgiving.
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
TYMK.
I cannot thank you enough.
So “S. 2.0?”
What do you think?!
ROTFL.
Afraid so.
I’ll just let you two slug it out from here. I did my part. If a ruling is needed, we’ll let Bill chime in.
Speaking of, I should probably ask him for a raise on the next page, but knowing him, I’ll just get a shipment of Bamba and Goth themed bloomers. LOL
I’m not bothering to slug it out.
If she wants to worship Casper the Ghost, enjoy.
She just cannot stop.
Bill made it very clear that missionaries are not welcome on the site.
I screenshot one of his comments on a prior page which he highlighted.
There are plenty of Christian sites where she can spread her “good news” therein.
This was precisely what I was concerned about regarding these people.
I may just ban her myself if she doesn’t cease and desist.
Good idea. Neither of us get paid enough, and Bamba and bloomers wont cut it. LOL
TRUE!
So we’re in agreement that I should pull the plug?
You NAILED it in your email.
I think this one is even worse.
I do agree, as I do not see this going anywhere, or accomplishing anything.
Good morning WT!
For some reason, my ban didn’t take.
The crazy part is that it showed up in my panel that she is on the banned list.
Can you please look into why it didn’t take?
I banned her again and deleted some of her postings.
I can rebut everything that she posted.
If anyone herein wants to know the rebuttals, I will be happy to type them up.
I’m not wasting my time on missionary scum.
I don’t care what THEY think.
You can see from the mod panel what I saw this morning.
Just in case, I screenshot it.
She is an ignorant and arrogant FOOL who understands NOTHING.

I am extremely familiar with those like yourself.
Frankly, I don’t care what you call yourself.
You are conducting yourself like a missionary.
As we say in the legal field: “If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is a duck.”
I find it hilarious for you to make assumptions as to what I do or do not know.
The correct translation of verse 13: “Who understands errors? Cleanse me of hidden [sins].”
RASHI explains (regarding verse 13)
Who understands errors?: I was careful with them but it is impossible to be so careful that one does not err in them, and You cleanse me of hidden sins, which were hidden from me; of which I was unaware when I sinned inadvertently.
“No one rebutted you on a channel that doesn’t allow religious disputes? Go figure, LOL”
Oh, for crying out loud!
I made it very clear in a prior posting that I do anti-missionary work.
Do you understand what anti-missionary work entails? I deal with people offline, in person, and/or on the phone.
SMH….
“No one here tried to make this Jew feel like two cents.
You didn’t succeed.”
I never even remotely implied that I ever held myself in such low self esteem.
“Two cents? Not one of God’s creations is worth that little, Rebecca. I have been praying that the Lord guide your optometrist to help bring healing to your eye so that you may see clearly, and will stop if you wish, but that’s gotta be worth at least $100!”
Oh, I vehemently disagree with you about that.
Antisemites, missionaries, and terrorists, are most definitely worth even less.
“You seem to have preconceptions as to whether, when, how and to whom He reveals them,”
Not at all.
How you arrived at that conclusion is ludicrous.
“whereas I believe those are HIS prerogatives.”
Of course, it is Hashem’s prerogative as to whom He chooses to share things with.
Indeed, He chose to share many secrets with His Chosen People.
Psalm 111:6 “The strength of His works He related to His people, to give them the inheritance of the nations.”
RASHI explains:
The strength of His works He related to His people: When He gave them the inheritance of the nations, He let them know His strength and His might. And Midrash Tanchuma (Buber, Bereishith 11): He wrote for Israel [about] the Creation to let them know that the earth is His and that it is in His power to settle in it anyone He wishes, and to move these out and settle others, so that the nations will not be able to say to Israel, “You are thieves, for you conquered the land of the seven nations.”
Moreover, Hashem also revealed to the Jewish People many other secrets such as the true age of the world.
“Since Jews refused to spread the gospel of Jesus to Gentiles,”
Of course the righteous Pharisees rejected it.
Christianity is idolatry for a Jew.
Why would any Torah Jew promulgate idolatry?! 😂😂😂
“He appeared to Paul instead with new revelations, which has worked marvelously.”
Sure.
Because Paul said so.
Paul, the chameleon, shyster, and lying piece of garbage!
In his own words: 1 Corinthians 9:19-23: “For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.”
Charming.
(Very heavy sarcasm.)
No authentic and true prophet of Hashem would EVER conduct themselves in such a manner
How very evil and despicable!
No authentic Orthodox Jewish Rabbi would ever do such a thing either.
“He appeared to Paul instead with new revelations,”
You can believe that.
It doesn’t make it true.
“I wouldn’t try to put him into a box,”
He did that all on his own.
“so tread carefully there.”
Oh my.
I’m positively quaking in my boots.
Now you’ve done it.
I won’t be able to sleep for many nights.
Goodness gracious, whatever shall I do?!
😱😱😱😱😱😱
Elijah the Prophet demonstrated very well how to deal with false prophets.
We MOCK them.
Kings I 18:27 “And it was at noon that Elijah scoffed at them, and he said, “Call with a loud voice, for he is a god. [Perhaps] he is talking or he is pursuing [enemies] or he is on a journey; perhaps he is sleeping and will awaken.”
I don’t want or desire your prayers.
The trouble with you is that you know so much that isn’t so.
It would take many hours to educate you, and I don’t see any benefit to my doing so.
I love when missionaries reveal themselves.
I was onto you almost immediately when you posted to me about being deprived of Peter’s gift.
As per @nicetomeetyou2:disqus’s rules, you are banned.
*Don’t Despair*
Sometimes the reaction to the sin is worse than the sin itself.
Our job is to be embarrassed and take responsibility because we could do better, not be depressed with guilt and shame.
Let’s put the energy on the repair and not focus on the despair.

Happy Thanksgiving AuntiE!
🥰🥰🥰
To you as well.
TYVM!
Did you and your family dine out again this year?
We did not. I slept not a wink last night and napped most of the day. We have a local venue that does a wondrous job on turkey. UncleE went and did a pick up; 3 fat turkey slices, 2 scoops of dressing/stuffing, huge scoop of mashed potatoes and huge quantity of green beans for $9.99. They are the provider of Thanksgiving meals for two retirement complexes, hence reasonably priced for the holiday.
I’m so very sorry to hear that.
Are you doing better now?
I hope your meal was delicious!
That’s an excellent price for such a dinner.
I am better, yet still very slightly tired.
It was very good. They do a “special price” for Thanksgiving and heap the servings.
I’m so very grateful to hear that.
I hope you will be able to sleep very well tonight.
Regarding your closing paragraph, that’s a win-win combination!
Happy Thanksgiving Auntie.
Thank you. I hope yours has been happy.
Great day. Thanks.

I slept for four hours this afternoon.
(I’m very under the weather from multiple issues. I have to wait it out. I’ll get there, Be’Ezras Hashem.)
Hope you’re feeling better, Mom. G-d Bless You.
That’s very sweet of you!

How are you spending it?
Chilly, rainy day so made a pot of chicken stew. Warm and dry inside, not a bad day at all. 🤠
It’s a great attitude!
May Hashem bless you.
What do you put into your chicken stew?
My husband surprised me by making supper.
My chicken cutlets were defrosted.
He also prepared the green beans.
I’m very grateful.
I never take him for granted.
Never same ingredients, this pot had green beans, corn, chopped onion. parsley and a bit of sage. Broken up fettucine and the chicken. Tasty with garlic bread!
You’re very talented in many areas.
That’s fabulous. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
No chef but a fairly good cook. Cooking for one is not so easy so I do a lot of stews, casseroles, and such.
It’s a wonderful skill to have.
Yup.
Cooking for one is difficult.
Do you freeze leftovers into individual portions?
Casseroles and stews are very tasty.
Some of the best meals, are simple ones from my perspective.
Sometimes I freeze part of it, depending on how much is left. Nothing fancy but simple and nutritious.
That makes alot of sense.
Simple and nutritious is the way to go!
That sounds like a good way to use up leftovers, I will keep that idea in mind.
Yes it is! Hardly ever throw any food away, no recipes just combine things and season to taste. Culinary adventuring! Lol
Good afternoon Sarge! 😊😊😊
How are you doing
That is most definitely the case.
Afternoon! Another chilly, rainy day but inside and dry. Can’t complain. Should be sunny and dry tomorrow, hopefully. 🤞
Hoping for many sunny days for you in every single manner!
Shavuah Tov Sarge! 😊😊😊
How was your day?
It was a sunny day today.
It started out as 38 and went up to 52.
That’s unusual for this time of year.
Made it to upper 50’s, breezy but sunny and dry. Good to see the sun again! 👍🤠
That’s very awesome and sounds very beautiful!
Yes! I love sunny days as well.
Happy Thanksgiving Sgt.
Same to you and yours! 👍

Happy and healthy Thanksgiving William!
How are you spending it?
Thank You Mom !
A Happy and healthy Thanksgiving to you and yours !
Spending the day with my wife’s kids and grand kids, and a big delicious turkey.
Tomorrow my dear friend from Hong Kong will be here to see and pickup a guitar that I built for him two years ago. It’s been waiting here for him during the plandemic and I dared not ship it to him because we feared it would be stolen by Chinese customs. The body wood is African Rosewood and even though it’s been removed from the CITES regulations and even though all the paperwork is there, it’s still prized by them. He won’t have any trouble bringing it though customs in person though.
Playing it as much as I can before I have to let it go but he’s been a great friend and deserves it.
How about you, how’s your day going? Good I hope !

WOW!
That’s a real beauty.
You’re very talented! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
That sounds like a wonderful day.
Enjoy in the best of health always!
Good friends are a very priceless commodity.
I speak from experience.
I wish you a fabulous visit!
I’m sure it would have been stolen had you mailed it to him.
We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving in any official capacity.
My family never did.
That doesn’t make us appreciate what America did for the Jewish People, however.
Thank you Mom, you’re very kind to say that. The beauty is in the wood, I just try to keep out of the way.
The common grain lines in the wood tell us the age of the tree and the conditions that it grew in. The beautiful part, the translucent “figure” that moves as you tilt the instrument is more rare and caused by stress on the tree. In this tree’s case it may have been an older nearby tree that died and leaned on it so that it had to endure the stress of the older tree’s weight bearing on it as it grew. I mention this because I know that you’ve been under the weather and of all the people I know you are the least likely to deserve the stress it causes but most likely to endure it because of your faith and good nature. Like that tree the beauty comes through in you too.
Oh my goodness….
That is such a stunningly beautiful compliment.
I’m so very moved. 🥲🥲🥲
I’m going to screenshoot it to remind myself for those times that I need to be reminded, that I am stronger than I know.
Hashem is the source of my strength.

The red heifers are in Jerusalem, Bibi’s back, and Jordan is already warning Israel not to pray on the Temple Mount. No one is sure when it will happen, but they’re getting ready to build the Third Temple.
Even though there is ample room for all three holy sites to exist there. the Muslims are going to fight all the way and the harder they fight the more they will lose, and deservedly. It’s too bad that they can’t live and let live. They’ll never make it to heaven if they don’t.
Good morning William!
Moshiach hasn’t arrived yet.
The process of the redemption is currently unfolding.
All of our great sages have said this.
But it’s a process.
One of the reasons is to give people more time to repent.
Moshiach, will be a very special person. His level of prophecy will be secondary only to Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses our teacher).
We will know when he has arrived. The five Exhaustive and Exclusive miracles must occur. These are world changing events.
The entire world will know.
These miracles are mentioned in several places in TANACH.
They can be found all together in the stunningly beautiful Chapter 37 of Yechezkel (Ezekiel).
1. Universal knowledge of Hashem.
2. Universal world peace.
(The final battle will be the War of Gog and Magog. Yechezkel Chapter 38 talks about it.)
3. The ingathering of all Jews to the land of Israel.
4. The building of the Third Temple by Hashem.
5. The resurrection of the dead.
No Muslim will be able to enter Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) when Moshiach comes nor will any uncircumcised male.
Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 52:1 “Awaken, awaken, put on your strength, O Zion; put on the garments of your beauty, Jerusalem the Holy City, for no longer shall the uncircumcised or the unclean continue to enter you.”
REDAK (a contemporary of RASHI) explains that the unclean are the Yishmaelim (progeny of Yishmael (Ishmael)). No matter how clean they pretend to be by constantly bathing, they are unclean in the eyes of Hashem.
The time is almost upon us.
Tzephania (Zephaniah) 3:20 “At that time I will bring them, and at [that] time I will gather you, for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your captivities before your eyes, said the L-rd.”
NO GENTILE WILL EVER HAVE ANY CLAIM TO ISRAEL.
May our eyes be blessed to see this!

Shavuah Tov Sapper9!
They sure did!
I learned about that many years ago.
It surprises me how many don’t know about this.
Israel’s far-right Jewish Power party has signed a coalition agreement with Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party.
Its leader, Itamar Ben-Gvir, is set to become national security minister under the deal.
The ultra-nationalist politician is known for his anti-Arab comments and has a past conviction for racism.
Racism has become such a very meaningless term.
It’s all about shaming these who don’t toe the leftist line!
Racism is now a dead term.
EXACTLY.
The Crown star Emma Corrin has called for the best actor and best actress
categories at major film awards to be merged into a single, gender-free one.
“I hope for a future in which that happens,” Corrin told BBC News.
The star, who identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, added:
“I don’t think the categories are inclusive enough at the moment.”
Tony, it’s highly likely that such future events will be held in a Psych Ward!

Pastrami that is worth running for is a special thing. yumm
Good morning Sapper9!
I love pastrami.
I’m one of these weird people that love it very lean (along with all other cuts of meat).
Deckle vs Brisket.
I’d definitely go for the the salmon.
TYVM! Have a fabulous weekend in every single manner!

Good afternoon AuntiE!
How are you feeling today?
LOVE this meme!
We had such an interesting 7:30AM. I arose to use the facilities to see three people, one at each car, attempting to break in. Really, 7:30AM in broad daylight?🙄😳😎 I took one of those ultra bright light flashlights and pointed out my window onto the little potential thieves, called the police and waited. It turns out our neighborhood is back on the circuit. A few years ago we had this issue.
Shavuah Tov AuntiE!
That must have been terrifying.
I hope it doesn’t happen again!

I am posting this article as a question, not an assertion of fact since I am not a resident of the UK ; in US conservative circles we hear a lot about the healthcare system in the UK and I wonder what your educated opinion is.
A friend from UK who used to stay with us when he visited needed a hip replacement. He couldn’t get it for years because he said it didn’t hurt *ALL* the time (he was very honest).
When he finally got it, he died on the operating table, and had to be revived.
Happy Shabbos everyone! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d3823cfc973c56be60217dabae1d0af47082b4f324489d79d69c7cf86010d76f.gif

Too bad that the blue state leftists don’t follow their lead.
This is interesting. Funny how New California includes the whole state except for most of the SF Bay Area, LA and Sacramento Counties. They obviously identified the real problem areas. LOL

Right? That’s why I love this.

Donald Trump’s former ambassador to Israel blasts ex-president for hosting ‘human scum’ white supremacist Nick Fuentes and ‘anti-Semite
Kanye West’ at Mar-a-Lago
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11472373/Donald-Trumps-former-ambassador-Israel-blasts-hosting-Nick-Fuentes-Kanye-West.html
If that’s the case, Trump is going to lose the Jewish vote.
Just read Trump’s response to all of this on Truth Social. Trump made very clear that Kanye is a “seriously troubled individual” = Trump’s exact words, and gave him “some advice” which by all I have seen so far was him telling Kanye, “don’t even think about running in 2024.”
Did he host Fuentes, however?
He’s another piece of drek.
Sounds like Fuentes invited himself based on some of the stuff I have seen so far. Looks like Kanye was the one to invite him to the meeting.
I very much appreciate you clearing that up.
His daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren are Jewish.
It made no sense to me.
And it shouldn’t have made sense either.
The Trump smearing has gone in to hyper overdrive since he officially announced his candidacy.
Hoo boy.
Trump Derangement Syndrome in full swing.
I think it was a political hit job sending Fuentes there, meant to damage Trump .
Kanye is a disturbed individual, this has been clear for a LONG time; when he started supporting Trump, I called it out and knew it would not be helpful
Killing ’em with cuteness!

Thank YOU.
On another note, I want to once again express my tremendous appreciation for every single gentile on this blog who understands that Jews need to remain Jews and doesn’t prosthelytize.
What is positively abhorrent to me, is for anyone to be condescending and pitying me regarding my Judaism.
I have enough Jew hatred in the world.
I really don’t need this aggravation herein.
I respect y’all and really don’t take any of you for granted.
It would be unconscionably rude to participate in a Jewish site and attempt to impose gentile views.
Good morning Rivka! I agree 💯 %
I envy anyone who can embrace their faith as you do. Not a pity at all. I’ve always admired Judaism and if anyone could see how sublime it is, the hatred wouldn’t be encouraged.

Good night to all of you.
I wish you all sweet and pleasant dreams always.
I want you all to understand something very important.
If someone posts to me something that is totally contrary to Judaism and I don’t post a rebuttal, it is considered as if I am acquiescing to what was stated to me.
I cannot be on the hook for that, and will not do so for anyone.
After alot of back and forth, that included @dr_darko:disqus trying to get “SoundMind” to understand the dynamics of the blog, it was apparent to the both of us that it was a lost cause.
Ergo, she has been banned.
I cannot stress enough that I NEVER ban someone lightly.
I am very cognizant that I am a guest on this blog.
It just wasn’t ending.
She kept saying that the blog wasn’t a good fit for her, but didn’t know when to quit.
Who knows when it would have concluded?
@nicetomeetyou2:disqus, I pulled the plug.
I really appreciate you trusting my judgment and knowing that I don’t abuse my moderator “badge.”
Best wishes to all of you….
May you all wake up strong, rested, and healthy.
Being the opinionated individual I am, as well as a major busybody, I see absolutely no necessity for you to explain, nor insinuate an apology, for actions you take as a moderator. Every single person here knows you for a generously kind woman not given to judgementalism. (Yes, that is a Neologism) If you felt a ban was called for, that is your decision, as a moderator, to impose..period.
Good morning AuntiE. 😘🤗
That is extremely kind of you to say.
It is very much appreciated beyond words…
You are correct.
In fact, when my husband heard me talk about it, he told me why are you even hesitating? He said you’re a moderator. Just ban her.
FYI, I love the fact that you’re very opinionated and you’re a very lovable “busybody.” 🥰🥰🥰

Ha!
Deer are such beautiful and majestic animals.
They have only frightened me when three deer in a single file, suddenly went scampering across a road I was driving on in upstate NY.
They were fairly close to me.
It was very scary.
I never hunt them, they are more like yard ornaments, that photo was from my back porch, but, the get way closer in the evening.

The Bidet Crime Family cannot account for $20,000,000,000 of money sent to Ukraine; their have been reports in the past about the TRILLIONS that have gone missing from the government being invested in Companies like Black Rock.
Tragically, they’ll get away with everything.

Beauty!
A sexagenarian survivor of last week’s bombings in Yerushalayim is grateful to be alive, showing visitors at the hospital a Sefer Tehillim (Book of Psalms) that he had on his person at the time of the attack, as he was en route home from Meron. Shrapnel penetrated the sefer of Dovid Hamelech’s (King David’s) hymns… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cbb2136d564e120e2fdc88f3f7060ab2023b56fcbcdabd78cfd894428ccdaddf.jpg

This is so beyond true.
I love dating my husband. ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I’ve never been married, but know that to be true. If a married couple has regular date nights, they tend to be a stronger couple.
Dating is generally associated with courting. So if you are dating your spouse, it’s like you are saying to them that you are not taking them for granted, as it is like you are pursing them all over again. It also links to studies that have been done about couples having stronger bonds after taking vacations together.
It’s all bonding experiences.
BAM! 🎤🎤🎤
ABSOLUTELY.
It’s about the bonding and the investment of time that you put into the marriage.
I put on makeup daily (sans Shabbos and on certain holidays as it’s forbidden) as much as possible and am always dressed.
Not just for myself, but for my family.
Why shouldn’t they see me look good?
Obviously, sometimes I cannot manage it the cosmetics, but I have a very high track record.
(I ALWAYS get dressed.)
I feel that if I always put myself together for all the dates that didn’t end up being my spouse, it behooves me even more so to look good for the only one that counted in the end.
Absolutely, after taking vacations.
That being said, you’d be surprised how much it means to share a cup of coffee/tea together.
(My husband is the coffee drinker.)
Of course, as you know, I have my own version of “putting my best foot forward”. It certainly wouldn’t fit in at a snooty cocktail party, as I am sure I would frighten most of the guests. LOL
But even then, over all, when you make yourself look good, you feel good at the very least. Which is not only showing respect to the other person, but also puts you at your best, and makes you more pleasant to be around. All around, it’s a win-win.

My answer to her hypothetical questions early on.
What are your experiences of alienation and cancellation? I lost a good job, and my circle of friends got a lot smaller.
What would you have done differently over the last two years if you could go back? Nothing. I don’t regret insulting or yelling at any of the Branch Covidians. If anything, I only wish I was far more verbally abusive. Or that many years prior, that I started practicing Voodoo or witch craft just so that I could start putting hexes on people.
What keeps you on the road less traveled? I didn’t like where the more traveled road lead. I could never just settle for what was presented to me.
Are you ready to forgive? NEVER!!
France: A 22-year-old young man, already convicted of terrorism, lunges at a policeman and tries to take his gun away, shouting “Allah Akbar”
fredalanmedforth / Posted on November 28, 2022
A 22-year-old man accused of assaulting a police officer while in police custody in Annecy was remanded in custody last weekend, it was reported on Monday. The national anti-terrorism prosecutor’s office has been called in.
A 22-year-old man was charged last Friday with “intentional violence against a public official in connection with a terrorist activity”. This was learned by France Bleu Pays de Savoie on Monday from the National Anti-terrorism Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT), confirming a report in the newspaper Le Parisien.
The young man had been arrested at his home in Haute-Savoie last Tuesday at the request of the Directorate General of Internal Security (DGSI). He is alleged to have failed to comply with the terms of his probation by, among other things, making trips to Kosovo and Saudi Arabia without informing the authorities.
He was taken into police custody after returning from one of these trips and is accused of assaulting a police officer while in police custody at Annecy police station: He lunged at the officer and tried to grab his gun from him. According to reports by an editorial team of Le Parisien, he also shouted “Allah Akbar”.
The young man was known to the security authorities and had already been convicted twice for terrorist offences. He was detained until his remand was adjudicated. A judicial investigation was also launched on Friday evening by the PNAT National Prosecution Service. France Bleu

Good morning/afternoon everyone!
I’m going to try to be back later, Be’Ezras Hashem.
I received the breaking news a few minutes ago that Rabbi Tovia Singer and all anti-missionary work will be prevented from being accomplished in Israel, if this ludicrous lawsuit against him by Lehi Lapid is successful, Heaven forbid.
Please amplify this if possible.
I’ll post the original video that resulted in this.
Legally, Lehi Lapid doesn’t have a case.
However, that never stopped corrupt judges before!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nk_qEmC_0uY
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WZKhOT2Evis
One doesn’t even have to be Jewish to see what is wrong with what is being done to Rabbi Singer.
If someone has to have a dissenting voice effectively silenced, then that is an admission that their own position cannot stand on its own.
We’ve seen countless examples of this in history, and are witnessing countless examples of it now with cancel culture, whether someone speaks out against the COVID narrative, the trans agenda, or critical race theory.

When I was a kid I had a cat that was mine and he would sit in my lap while I read a book. One day I was reading Catch-22 and if I turned the page too fast he would reach up and gently turn it back. If I took to long he would turn to the next page. My mother swore I was teaching him bad ideas
We had two cats who enjoyed watching LambChop with ProgenyE. They would sit and gaze and stop looking if an ad came on.
Adorable!

LOL!
Story of my life.
Oh nooooo….
If only my bed was as comfortable, and I felt as sleepy as I do first thing in the morning, but at night, I would have my life together. LOL
Do you have an old mattress?
Depends on how you define “old.” I did get a memory foam pad which helped since the springs were causing pain, and I am a side sleeper.
That only helps to an extent if the springs are good.
Sigh…
FYI, sleeping on one’s side is the healthiest.
RAMBAM (Maimonides) who was a doctor, wrote about this.
How are your pillows?
Pillows are very important!!
Yes, they really are!
As I was just going to tell Auntie, I did get a memory foam pillow as well, and I have a few extra regular pillows that I use.
I think when I replace my mattress, I may have my next one be all memory foam. For me the softer, the better.
It’s very important to go with what works best for you.
These things really work differently for individuals.
Think about your pillow as well. I have three different pillows. Sometimes if I change to another pillow it helps.
Myself included!
Three pillows on my bed plus a wedge pillow.
(I bought a wedge pillow when I fractured my ribs. It took me several very long weeks to get back into my bed. I really love the wedge pillow and still use it.)
One pillow I have from my maternal grandmother.
It’s still in excellent condition.
That pillow, I have for sentimental reasons on my bed.
I have the best memories of her tucking me into bed at night…
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Pillows really really can make a difference.
They DO!
The really soft and scrumptious one is from my grandmother.
I recommend the wedge pillow for everyone.
It’s extremely comfortable and very wide and big, with the perfect inclined amount.
I had my PT pick out the right one to order. There are so many different kinds.
Who knew?
I discovered pillow switching by accident. One night I just could not be comfortable. I changed pillows and viola comfort.
Myself included.
Necessity is truly the mother of invention!
😁😁😁
I just answered you under PCM’s other comment, as I saw that one first. But my primary pillow is a memory foam.
I have a medium latex foam, a soft down and one I cannot really describe.
Must be a Liberal.
And a Bay Area liberal at that.
As Carolyn would say; ASPERGER’S!!
From what you described, most definitely!
I almost feel like I know Carolyn already.
Please send her my best wishes.
On another note, is the freak with the Christmas tree earrings still Julie’s boss?
I hope he died from something nasty.
He sounded awful in how he treated her alone!
No, thankfully Julie FINALLY got a new job earlier this year.
She got them back good. She took the job on her vacation time to make sure everything was working out. And then, when the two weeks was up, she told Christmas Tree earrings she wasn’t coming back. LOL
So she collected two paychecks for a bit while only working one job.
BORUCH HASHEM!
CONGRATULATIONS TO JULIE!
LECHAYIM! 🥂🍾
I’m so thrilled that she got a new job!
That made me smile from ear to ear!
Not only only did she get away from him, but got regular 9 to 5 hours to boot. So she can plan things better.
That is so FABULOUS!
We need another Lechayim for that one!
🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾
Indeed. I was actually thinking about her when I went to the tree lighting last week, because they have a See’s Candy in that shopping center. I was reminded of a story she told me about how she went in to See’s to buy candy for Christmas, and this was during all the COVID hype when you couldn’t go anywhere without a face diaper.
And some woman in front of her started tattling on Julie to the clerk for not wearing her mask “properly.” Which Julie gave the Karen a right earful full. Then after that, the Karen was wearing opened toed shoes, and starting picking her toenails.
The Julie told the story was hilarious because of how she worded it, and the inflections she used; “Picking her toe jam in the middle of a candy store.” LOL
Julie sounds like she has a great sense of humor!
Does she reside in your neck of the woods?
She’s roughly an hour away in the San Jose region. Whereas I am much closer to Oakland.
She does have quite a sense of humor. Especially when she gets angry, she shows her natural talent for sarcasm. LOL
Oy Vey!
An hour away by car.
Not in very close proximity.
I’m just really thrilled that she’s in a great place.
I love people with a sarcastic sense of humor, who don’t use it against good people!
And especially dealing with Bay Area traffic doesn’t help either.
Oh my goodness…
That’s right!
You once described that to me!
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Yeah, we’re catching up with LA in that department.
It sounds like a rotten experience.
UGH.
We tend to hit insane traffic manifold, getting in and out of NYC to visit family, attend weddings, etc.
That was one of the things I noticed when I first looked in to Seacliff, NY. Distance-wise, it’s not even 20 miles east of Manhattan, yet, the driving time to and fro, at best, is anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour.
Cities are horrible with traffic.
LOL

That’s because she’s a patriot and the “real deal.”
That party? No. The people? Yes. Yes, they certainly are patriots, and standing by her.

Good evening AuntiE! 💞💞💞
How are you feeling?
Are you sleeping any better these days?
I crashed before 10:00PM last night and slept until 11:00AM this day. Absolutely astounding!!
WOW!
You must have really needed the sleep!
Are you feeling better?
Ironically enough I had insomnia last night and was thinking that I hope that AuntiE and DW are sleeping very well.
I’m so beyond grateful that you slept so well!
🥰🥰🥰
I do feel better!!
☹️😟 for your insomnia. It is horrid.
That makes my heart smile.
I’m really very happy for you!
Insomnia is indeed horrid.
There was a time where it plagued me for months straight.
I’m being cautiously optimistic that it was one bad night.
(I read when I cannot sleep. Electronics stimulates and triggers the brain into an awakened state.)
Darken the screen on your electronics at night!!!!!!!
Does it really help? 🤔
YES!!
That’s really excellent to know.
I have to figure out how to do it.
I’ll Google it, as I am probably the only one herein who has an android.
My reader is a Kindle. It took me ages to learn about how to darken the screen.
I own a Kindle.
My 18 year old adopted it.
I’ll borrow it back if need be.
Depending on my state of insomnia, I learn TANACH (That is an acronym for the entire corpus of the Hebrew Bible).
If I cannot focus as heavily, I will do lighter reading.
I was blessed to attend a sale last week that was the best one I was ever at for such books.
I purchased Job, Ezra, Nehemiah, Daniel, First Chronicles, and Jeremiah with tremendous amounts of holy commentaries for two dollars per book. Such books normally average anywhere from 25-29 dollars a book.
I’m really very excited about it.
That should keep me really busy for a while.
It’s typical of myself to be in the middle of a few books at a time.
(Sort of like being in school and studying different subjects.)
Heavy reading may not be your best idea. It will have your brain working not relaxing.
If you go back to Kindle, consider the low cost of Kindle Unlimited. You can have as many as ten books at one time, no charge because of being a Kindle Unlimited member. If nothing else investigate it. You may find it is not your cup of tea.
That’s an excellent point!
Good grief, talk about shooting myself in the foot.
I was being advised against using electronics with insomnia.
Knowledge is power!
I cannot thank you enough, AuntiE!
I’ve been for the past month waking up every couple of hours for no specific reason.
It’s not fun, but a lot better than being up straight for hours on end!
I have made the mistake of starting a book by an author, knowing it will pull me in, and finding myself awake. Big shot into my foot. I do not do that any more.
A Marine told me they were taught to think; I will not think. I will not think. while trying to sleep. Try it on those nights you wake up. It seems counterintuitive to think not to think; however, periodically, it has helped me.
You are such a sweet soul!
I will definitely try doing that.
🤗🤗🤗💞💞💞🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
I cannot thank you enough for all of your terrific advice and recommendations.
FYI, I think of you every time I wear my sweatshirts and choose a sweater.
Visualizing our sweaters doing battle together, has me grinning mightily and sometimes chuckle 🤭🤭🤭.
That’s always a wonderful thing!
I was thinking if we could get them to be friends they could find a way to reproduce to increase our supply.🤔🤓😎😂

Got a new job offer – 56% more pay, full benefits and work from home. Now if the wife agrees will be all set. Oh and it is in a state without income tax as well..
Congrats, Mac.
Thanks – promises to be interesting. Not paying state income tax helps
I remember having that luxury living in Nevada. No state income tax actually makes a much bigger difference than some people might think. It’s like getting a huge raise.
It does. Remote work is treated as if you are in state
I am sure that it is also 2nd Amendment friendly.
Doesn’t matter (yes it is) because it is remote regardless
Good evening Chief!
MAZAL TOV!
That sounds wonderful!
I hope your wife acquiesces!

I couldn’t resist snapping a picture of this tree today.
I love the colors this time of year.
Myself included!
I still love Spring better.
Everything is coming alive.
Every season has its beauty, sans the summer for you of course!
Okay folks.
Sometimes we get to see the retribution of the wicked on this side of Heaven!

About this work
Description
Antiochus IV lies on a bed in his tent, his armour abandoned on the floor beside him. He is purulent with “pain of the bowels” and “sore torments of the inner parts”, infested with worms, and emitting “intolerable stink”. He has also fallen violently from his chariot “so that having a sore fall, all the members of his body were much pained”. On the left an elderly surgeon pours ointment on to his leg while a younger assistant changes his dressings. On the right a notary writes down Antiochus’s last wil and testament, which Antiochus dictated “when he himself could not abide his own smell”: instead of being sacked, Jerusalem should be set free; the Jews would be treated equally with the citizens of Athens; the holy temple of the Jews would be restored; and he himself would become a Jew. However, “for all this his pains would not cease: for the just judgment of God was come upon him: therefore despairing of his health, he wrote unto the Jews” a further apology and letter of goodwill, before he died
According to the second Book of Maccabees, IX: 4-28, Antiochus “thought to avenge upon the Jews the disgrace done unto him by those that made him flee. Therefore commanded he his chariotman to drive without ceasing, and to dispatch the journey, the judgment of God now following him. For he had spoken proudly in this sort, That he would come to Jerusalem and make it a common burying place of the Jews. But the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, smote him with an incurable and invisible plague: or as soon as he had spoken these words, a pain of the bowels that was remediless came upon him, and sore torments of the inner parts; And that most justly: for he had tormented other men’s bowels with many and strange torments. Howbeit he nothing at all ceased from his bragging, but still was filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding to haste the journey: but it came to pass that he fell down from his chariot, carried violently; so that having a sore fall, all the members of his body were much pained. …So that the worms rose up out of the body of this wicked man, and whiles he lived in sorrow and pain, his flesh fell away, and the filthiness of his smell was noisome to all his army. And the man, that thought a little afore he could reach to the stars of heaven, no man could endure to carry for his intolerable stink. … Thus the murderer and blasphemer having suffered most grievously, as he entreated other men, so died he a miserable death in a strange country in the mountains.”

This was the wicked King Antiochus from the Chanukah story.
It came up today when I was discussing Jewish history with a Noachide friend of mine.

It’s not realistic to be positive 24/7/365, but we do the very best that we can! 💞💞💞
Not factual – the New Madrid Earthquake actually did reverse the Mississippi River for 3 days running South to North 😉 just saying
Good morning Chief! 😊😊😊
That’s incredible!
WOW! 🤯🤯🤯
Very much appreciate the information! 👍👍👍
How have you been feeling?
I’m davening for everything to work out for you for the very best.
The L-rd makes the rules and can change them as well. Knowledge of history is important.
Am doing very well and yourself and family?
ABSOLUTELY! He proved that to the world with all of the tremendous miracles of the Exodus, alone.
Very beautifully stated.
BH, we’re doing well overall.
My oldest son is coming this Shabbos with his family.
Unfortunately, my cousin is in terrible shape. She needs a major miracle.
I’m beyond heartbroken.
I continue to roll with the punches.
I take every moment as it comes and am grateful for every single good moment in time.
Last night was horrific pain-wise, but this morning, I was able to do my walking even in the rain.
(That’s a huge miracle for me.)
I’m anxiously awaiting Moshiach’s coming with tremendous anticipation.
I greatly long for his coming every single day of my life.
Tragically, and I am not sitting in judgment, many are despairing because of these dark times.
I was asked yesterday how do I know for certain that all of the gorgeous prophecies about Moshiach will come true?
I KNOW it because Hashem’s track record is proven.
He always keeps His Promises.
Would he only fulfill the prophecies of consequences and retribution and not the glorious Messianic ones that fill pages upon pages of our TANACH?!
OF COURSE NOT!
AM YISROEL CHAI LANETZACH!

For those reasons, I find the ADL to be antisemitic.
I can’t help but wonder if that is their actual intent. Because if so, they are sure going about it the right way.
Absolutely!
The ADL has been very antisemetic for years.
They’re certainly conducting themselves as if it’s their intent!
They are a big reason why half “the right” is tiptoeing around the Kanye issue, and in some cases, even making excuses for Kanye. Because they fear condemning the comments is conceding anything to the left. First of all, it isn’t. And since when do we allow those who hate us, and are bent on the destruction of all of us, define us, or dictate anything we say or do?
THANK YOU.
I was just telling this to someone today.
On another note, do you know what the story is with Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar?
I know they allegedly spoke for a group that is very antisemetic.
I keep on forgetting to research it.
🤦🤦🤦
This is the first I am hearing of that.
I know if I didn’t hear the words directly from the horse’s mouth, I would be very skeptical of the allegations against Kanye, just knowing the nature of the beast.
But since I HAVE heard it directly from the horse’s mouth, and have heard Kanye double down, triple down, and quadruple down, I condemn Kanye.
Absolutely.
That’s why I refused to condemn them.
Agreed about Kanye.
He doesn’t know how to shut up and that’s very advantageous in proving who he really is.
Correct. Although I want to give the benefit of doubt to the victim, I also understand that everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
Then there is the fact that the left wants to find anything they can on anyone who happens to be even slightly to the right of Joseph Stalin. Which, in my mind, really puts the onus of proof on them to make their case even more so.

Sweet dreams, rest well, and wake up feeling incredibly healthy and strong, Be’Ezras Hashem!

(Just saying… 😊😊😊🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥)
With Hashem’s help, I will begin to untangle, unravel, and explain the truth about the story of Dovid HaMelech and Batsheva (King David and Bathsheba) and Abraham and Hagar.
I must not forget to accomplish this.
A little knowledge is a very dangerous thing.
That was exhibited a couple of days ago by the missionary.
I have been trying to put several fires out simultaneously, and am trying to do the best that I can.
This is why I am sometimes here in spurts on some days.
To add insult to injury, a missionary masquerading as a Jew attempted to convert me today.
It is a joy to be here.
I thank you all for your camaraderie and kindness.
It is appreciated beyond words.
Truly.
May Hashem bless you all with everything good.

FYI – If you have anyone into purses, Dooney Bourke and Coach are both doing VERY VERY good sales.
Good morning! 😊😊😊💞💞💞
TYSM!
You’re always so very thoughtful.
I do know a couple of people who will put this information into excellent use.
Some of the items at both venues are 50-60% off. UncleE is giving me a new wallet. **Hmmm…I best let him know that.**
👍👍👍
As of 3:30PM, I am the most beloved relative for my great niece. It only cost me $10 to reach that status. I had a tree ornament made with a picture of her and her favorite dressage horse. She is over the moon happy. The sound you hear is my arm creaking as I pat myself on the back.🤓😎😂

🤣👍🤠
Good morning Sarge! 😊😊😊
How are you doing?
It’s in the forties and raining, but I am alive and was able to do my walking.
I’m beyond grateful to Hashem.
Upper 30’s but sunny and dry here. Doing OK so far. 🤠
That’s fabulous!
May Hashem enable it to continue.
I’ll be back in a few moments, Be’Ezras Hashem.

Another interesting video from Rabbi Lapin…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5loP06UAXw
I cannot wait to watch it.
I’ll do so shortly, Be’Ezras Hashem!
TYVM and good morning! 😊😊😊
I am so glad that you enjoy these.
Very much so!
Watching now…
Happy warriors.
I LOVE it!
Still listening.
It’s awesome!
YES!
We recognize our natures (if we’re really honest with ourselves, that is)!
Indeed tribalism has NEVER worked.
It’s about the value system and the G-D Factor, as I call it.
That’s the difference between Jews who keep Torah and Jews in name only.
Absolutely.
YES.
Spirituality cannot be measured and you cannot be successful without understanding it.
These secular “Rabbis” only immersed themselves in the physical realm.
That’s why those people were and are all WRONG.
He is also right in that I’ve known no one who psychology has cured. Seems going to a “professional” is like joining a gang = once in, never out.
I also remember back in the 90s when having a therapist was becoming trendy. I would hear people talking more about their therapists than their own family or friends. Like self-righteous missionaries talking about their pastor’s most recent sermon.
He’s right about EVERYTHING!
I really enjoyed the video so very much.
💞
That really makes me happy to hear. I am so glad that you enjoyed it, and I hope it made your day just that much better.
I am most definitely a very happy warrior! 😃😃😃💞💞💞
Indeed we are both physical and spiritual.
We are naturally tugged to the physical part of us that’s lazy and indulgent.
We battle being able to soar upwards in the spiritual realm.
This is why I work with an Orthodox Jewish social worker.
(As per my pain management doctor, it’s mandatory for me due to my level of pain to talk to one regularly. I was once in between mental health professionals and tried using a gentile.
It just doesn’t work, PRECISELY because of what Rabbi Lapin described. An Orthodox Jew understands both realms and both realms come into play during therapy. It makes all of the difference in the world!)
YES! Those people promote the very disease that they are claiming to cure!
ABSOLUTELY! Mental stress usually comes from sin.
When we’re on the right path, we live happy and fulfilled lives.
He’s correct about the downward spiral or the reverse, and how it becomes easier and habitual.
The physicality has no right or wrong.
Indeed it’s one of the main differences!
Mental diseases have to be solved spiritually in order to be successful.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
We cannot do it by ourselves.
We need Hashem to help us.
And when we ask for His help, He gives it!
Pills aren’t the answer to everything.
(I’m not saying that there’s not a need for it. But it’s not ultimately the solution.)
One of the many things that made me so suspicious of COVID right off the bat, besides shutting down the entire economy, was knowing big pharma’s roll in so much.
Especially in the 90s and 2000s with the SSRIs being pushed so heavily on the population, and the effects they were having. I remember being called every name in the book, and “anti-science” for pointing out the suicides linked to those “happy pills”, and their relation to mass shootings. And how being human was declared an illness.
He also made a great point how these types don’t look at us as humans but just a glob of molecules.
I was watching a video a few days ago from the Hoover Institute called “The Depopulation Bomb”, that made a similar point, however, there were some other aspects that they simply did not get. But this is what happens when you talk to those who only break everything down in to data points, including people. But, the fact that they could even acknowledge the issues of the human heart were being ignored, and don’t always fit in to convenient data points was impressive enough for economists.
You and I are on the same page in more ways than one.
As soon as they told us to shut down for two weeks, I knew what was transpiring.
Moreover, the same FDA that takes 20 years to roll out medications magically approved this after three months by testing it on WHAT precisely?
Agreed about your point about pills.

I’m hearing way too much about Michael Moore in the news.

The daley machine in the current times.
“database latency.”
Three and a half years ago, a friend of mine had a mother who was a cancer patient and dragged herself out to vote.
She was told that she already voted by mail.
Who knew how long this was really going on for?!
And the GOP is indeed investigating the wrong things.
Unless they care enough to correct the system, our votes will never count again!
TYVM for posting this.
Many politicians appear to be members of the same coven, made up of both the Jackass and the Rino. I’m not impressed. Slow learners they are who presume we’re all gullible. Of course their stupidity is to our advantage.
I hope you’re well and happy.
Good afternoon Sarah! 😘🤗
How are you and Harold feeling?
Agreed!
I consider the RINOS a tad worse than the Dems in some ways because they pretend to be who they are not.
The Dems are open about their treachery.
I’m definitely happy, but saddened at the state of the country and the world on a global level.
TYMK for your good wishes.
Very much likewise and mutual as always.
Yes, and they, both sides, present themselves on TV, telling us what we already know. To cap their insults to our intelligence, they’re always “shocked.” Enough with these drama queens with their hipocracy, their endless robot calls, their stuffing my mailbox with gimmies. They need some monopoly game money as a reply to their ongoing and fraudulent demands for my money. Better still, we need to fire their sorry behinds and make them pay back their salaries which they did not earn.
Harold and I have been and remain about a C-. Thanks for asking. I might call you sometime soon if that’s OK. Or send an email. High regards for you and for yours. G-d bless you always.🤗
True!
No one says it like you do!
😍😍😍
Ongoing davening for you and Harold!
Please call me any time except for Shabbos!

Good afternoon Sarah! 🤗😘
Emails are fine too.
I forgot to mention it.
I don’t always remember to check them daily.
Phone is the quickest way to reach me.

Good morning/afternoon everyone.
Before I begin, I want to explain that CHAZAL (an acronym for our Sages of blessed memory) have taught us that we can never begin to comprehend the greatness of the righteous people in TANACH (an acronym for the entire corpus of the Hebrew Bible).
If they were likened to angels, then we are merely people.
Another very important point about TANACH.
It is extremely critical for it to be understood with the holy commentaries like RASHI.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to understand many verses otherwise.
Many generations before RASHI and the other holy
commentaries, the Jewish People were on a much superior spiritual level.
Every generation that is further away from Adam, is less great.
Adam, was the most perfect human.
The Oral Torah also revealed many secrets about TANACH. Those who authored the Mishnah and Gemara, were masters of Torah study.
For generations that came afterwards, it was necessary for our understanding to have further commentaries and explanations.
These very holy men were gifted with Divine Inspiration.
It’s not prophecy, but several steps below that.
That being said, to quote my husband: “They are plugged into Hashem in a magnificent way that the average person isn’t.”
BAM. 🎤🎤🎤
They also knew many things in advance.
Two examples of of the cuff about what I mean about verses needing clarification and understanding as to its true meaning:
“An eye for an eye.”
What does that mean?
It refers to a person being precisely recompensed for his monetary loss by the one who caused it!
The entire book of Shir HaShirim (Song of Songs) is one large parable that details the tremendous and eternal love between Hashem and the Jewish People.
It can NOT be understood without the holy commentaries.
That’s a preface to my undertaking.
This very important premise, MUST be understood.
Finally, just know that it’s impossible for us to truly comprehend the magnitude and greatness of these people.
Very Informative! Thanks Mom.
Please share… 😊😊😊

TYSM.
I’m just getting started.
I will continue Be’Ezras Hashem, after I finish listening to @dr_darko:disqus’s Rabbi Lapin video.
It is BRILLIANT.
Rabbi Lapin is AWESOME!!!
I am really happy you are enjoying Rabbi Lapin. I’ll keep a close eye on his channel, and try to make his talks a regular feature.
That would be FANTASTIC!
I would LOVE that.
He’s a fabulous ambassador for real Judaism.
Dovid HaMelech and Batsheva
By: Rabbi Dovid Rosenfeld
The Talmud, makes a sweeping statement regarding David’s behavior: “Whoever says David sinned is only in error” (Shabbat 56a). As critical as the Torah was of David’s terrible slip, it was not nearly as bad as it seemed, as we’ll see now.
The Talmud explains that it was standard practice for Jewish soldiers to divorce their wives before going out in battle – lest they disappear in war and their wives become permanently unable to remarry. This was the practice throughout Jewish history until as recently as World War II. (The Israeli army considered adopting the practice as well, but decided against it because it would be harmful for the morale of the soldiers. In any event, the possibility of disappearing indefinitely in distant lands is much more remote today.)
As a result, King David technically did not commit adultery. He took an unmarried woman. My teacher R. Yochanan Zweig likewise points out that when Nathan the Prophet afterwards came to criticize David, he depicts David’s sin as one of stealing (in the metaphor of the rich man who takes the poor man’s one little lamb). David sin was one of taking what he should not have, but not, God forbid, one of actual adultery.
Even so, such behavior was infinitely beneath the king. Bathsheba was hardly a single girl free for the taking. Naturally she would have remarried Uriah had he returned home. And for this God was exceedingly critical of David. For a man as great as he, such an act was tantamount to true adultery. And the Torah, in its typical emphatic style, describes David’s sin in such a light – a description we might have taken literally had our Oral Torah not elucidated the matter for us further.
The Talmud (Sanhedrin 107a) makes another fascinating statement about David’s sin, which sheds much light on the true characters of the people involved. It states that Bathsheba was destined for David from the Six Days of Creation but that he took her as an “unripe fig.” David rightly sensed that Bathsheba was meant for him, and in fact, the future King Solomon would eventually be born from them. (The Talmud describes further how she became exposed to him via a fluke – an errant arrow which broke the window behind which she was bathing.) David, with his divine inspiration, knew that Bathsheba was meant for him. (There is a Kabbalistic notion that David was a reincarnation of Adam and Bathsheba of Eve.) But the time was not ripe. He acted too hastily on his correct instincts.
The Talmud elsewhere (Avodah Zarah 4b) writes that David’s sin was actually extremely atypical of him. God made the trial unnaturally hard for him. Under normal circumstances David should have withstood it. God ordinarily gives people challenges they are up to handling. But in this case God made it especially hard – and He did this so that David would show the way of repentance for all future generations. David spent his remaining years in an almost constant state of repentance, saying that his sin was before him constantly (Psalms 51:3). (Of course David did have free will and was certainly faulted for failing his test, but God did give him a harder challenge than He normally gives people. Challenges are to make us grow, not to crush us and to (virtually) bring us to sin.)
Finally, the Talmud (Sanhedrin 107a) explains that God did this to David in part because David specifically asked God to test him (Psalms 26:2). David wanted to show his love, that he could aspire to the level of the Patriarchs. From this the Talmud derives that we should never ask God to test us, allowing us to prove ourselves. God knows when the right time for tests are.
So yes, David sinned and the Torah was quite critical of his behavior. But the sin was nothing like the simple reading of the Prophet implied. As always, one can understand the full meaning and import of the Torah only after studying it in light of the interpretation of the Sages.
——————————
I need to add to that
It was during the war with the Ammonites that the first grievous sin was committed by David.
Being a prophet, David knew that his heir and successor would be the son that would be born to him and Bathsheba, a woman of renown, famous for her excellence of character, no less than for her unsurpassed beauty. David learned, however, that she was married to Uriah, a captain fighting under Joab’s command. Now it was customary in those days for married men, before going to war, to obtain a divorce from their wives, so that, in the event of their being “missing” in battle, their wives could get married again. Uriah had accordingly obtained a divorce from his wife. David wished to marry Bathsheba at once. He summoned Uriah to him, and, in the course of discussion, Uriah insulted the king. David could have had Uriah tried for high treason, but he was afraid that the trial might be considered a means of getting rid of him. David permitted Uriah to return to the battle field but instructed Joab that he should not endanger the lives of other soldiers to save Uriah from any predicament, for he deserved death in any case. Joab acted upon these instructions and Uriah fell, pierced by an Ammonite archer. In due time, Uriah’s widow became David’s wife. But David was soon to learn that his deed had greatly angered G‑d.
The Poor Man’s Lamb
The Prophet Nathan came to David with a stern message. He used the following parable: “There were two men in one city, the one rich and the other poor. The rich man had very many flocks and herds, but the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished, and it grew up together with him and with his children; it ate of his own bread and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was to him as a daughter. And there came a traveler to the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd to dress for the wayfaring man that was come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.”
David’s anger was kindled against that cruel man, and he exclaimed that the culprit should be put to death. Then the prophet Nathan said to David, “Thou art the man!”
The prophet proceeded to upbraid David for his sinful deed. David humbly acknowledged his sin and prayed for G‑d’s forgiveness. The Prophet told him that G‑d would spare his life, but that he would not escape many misfortunes.
The first tragedy came when Bathsheba’s first-born died soon after his birth. David accepted the punishment with real humility.
Birth of Solomon
Eventually, David and Bathsheba were comforted by the birth of another son whom they called Solomon, “the peaceful,” but to whom Nathan the prophet, blessing him in the name of G‑d, gave besides, another name, Jedidiah, “the beloved of G‑d.”
(This part hereinabove was authored by Jacob Isaacs.)
—————————-
My addition:
Every righteous descendant of King David, was compared as a throwback to King David. That was the biggest compliment after doing what was righteous in Hashem’s Eyes.
One can spend years trying to study who King David was and never understand his magnificence.
King David wrote Psalm 51, after the “sin” with Batsheva.
He showed us how to do Teshuvah (repent). He said immediately to Nathan, “I have sinned before the L-rd.” Nathan almost instantly responded as per Hashem, that Hashem forgave him.
King David made no excuses.
He confessed immediately.
Repentance is achieved by abandoning the sin, confessing with deep and true remorse, and committing to trying not to repeat the sin again.
And Hashem wipes the slate clean.
Psalm 51, is one of my favorite Psalms.
18-19: “For You do not wish a sacrifice, or I should give it; You do not desire a burnt offering. The sacrifices of G-d are a broken spirit; O G-d, You will not despise a broken and crushed heart.”
With all of the tremendous trials and tribulations that King David endured, his loyalty and love for Hashem was legendary.
It is the book of Tehillim (Psalms), that we daven from (in addition to the daily prayers) when we are requesting a salvation from Hashem.
Someone asked me more than once if I have a favorite verse from TANACH that galvanizes me.
I have several.
The one that I carry with me always is from Psalm 118:6 “The L-rd is with me; I shall not fear. What can man do to me?”
I carry with me what Dovid HaMelech also told to Goleeyas (Goliath) Shmuel Aleph (Samuel I 17:45 “And David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with sword, spear and javelin, and I come to you with the Name of the Lord of Hosts, the G-d of the armies of Israel which you have taunted.”
Again and again he taught a timeless lesson.
Salvation is from Hashem alone.
May Dovid HaMelech’s memory be blessed.
Indeed, he was the Na’im Zemiros Yisroel (the sweet singer of Israel).

You’re such a joy to have on this blog!
You make people laugh and kindly dole out terrific advice on so many topics.
I’m so very with you!
I have some talents gifted to me by Hashem.
Being technologically savvy was never one of them!
In fact, I describe myself as being technologically challenged!

Speaking of advice. I saw an article that around December 12 there is going to be a polar vortex dropping temperatures into the 20s on the East Coast down to South Carolina, 30s in Georgia and Alabama, with Florida going down to possible 40s. That could change; however, keep an eye. Our sweaters are going to be fighting over which layer they get to be; bottom, middle or top.
🤯🤯🤯 WOW!
No joke about the sweater battles.
Thank you most kindly for the heads-up.
I am going to try and plan accomplishing a lot before the 12th so as to avoid having to go out. Having said that, I have sufficient cold weather gear and the luxury of heated seats.
I have been spoiled by heated seats, I can’t go back and live like a farm animal , and only have regular seats. Just kidding
The first time I had them they were an option and cost around $400. It was the best money I spent.
I have no idea what they cost me, but , I love them.
You’re a very wise woman! 💞💞
Did you sleep well last night?
Sleep began around 3:45AM; however, was a very solid sleep.
OUCH!
I’m praying for you to be able to sleep well again.
And during a time of created fuel shortages.
True!
I will never forget the first time I experienced 0º for the first time. I’m someone that prefers cold, and hates heat. I don’t even like warm days in the mid 70s.
I had on long johns, jeans, a thick flannel, and a heavy overcoat and scarf, and STILL felt the biting cold. LOL
My niece lived in Fairbanks for several years. They are down in Anchorage now. We spent a lot of money on heavy weight thermals for her.
I was stationed at Ft Wainwright , and lived right outside the gates in Fairbanks; my first winter there we had 172 inches of snow, it was crazy cold.
I learned this, it is uncomfortable to be hot; however, it is PAINFUL to be cold.
The first winter, for her, we had to buy ‘grow lights’ for their apartment.The continuous darkness adversely impacted her, along with being pregnant.
Most apartments had them in the bathrooms .
She needed them in every room.
The body needs what the body needs, without the artificial sunlight, many suffered severe depression and other health issues.
Plus, she was pregnant and had only been in Alaska about three months before darkness fell.
😱😱😱😱😱😱
One day, we had a Canadian military plane crash a few hundred yards from our location; my platoon were the first to respond , the temp was -50 degrees without windchill
If it happens we will constantly hear CLIMATE CHANGE, CLIMATE CHANGE, CLIMATE CHANGE.

The non-Jewish woman needed air for her tire, but the air machine at the Lakewood, NJ gas station was broken and she was unable to drive her car. A frum Yid gave her the number of Lakewood Chaverim and explained that they could help her. Within a few minutes, a Chaverim volunteer pulled up and filled her car tire with air. She was stunned. Free of charge? How could it be? “The Jewish people are unbelievable,” she said, tears filling her eyes. “I can’t get over how they look out for each other.”

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organization on Monday threatened the controversial Otzma Yehudit party leader Itamar Ben-Gvir, saying he will “suffer the same fate” as an Israeli tourism minister who was assassinated in October 2001.
Islamic Jihad likened Ben-Gvir to right-wing Moledet party founder Rehavam Ze’evi — who “carried the ideology of a transfer and expulsion of the Arabs from the land of Palestine and as a result, he was expelled from life by Palestinians,” the terrorist group stated. Zeevi was murdered by Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine terrorist Hamdi Quran.

Bidding to address a mental health crisis on New York City streets and subways, Mayor Eric Adams announced Tuesday that authorities would more aggressively intervene to get people into treatment, describing “a moral obligation” to act, even if it means involuntarily hospitalizing some.
“These New Yorkers and hundreds of others like them are in urgent need of treatment, yet often refuse it when offered,” Adams said at a news conference, noting that the pervasive problem of mental illness has long been out in the open.
“No more walking by or looking away,” the mayor said.
— JewishNews24
“Involuntarily hospitalizing.”
Based on whose definition of mental illness?!?!
This is extremely dangerous precedent.
And the people begin to disappear and no one will question it. Control the opposition and eliminate those who disagree.
Good afternoon George!
BINGO.
My thoughts, precisely.
And the ultimate irony, is how it was the left that pushed the de-institutionalization act of the 1960s, and defended mental hospitals, which is why we have crazy people on the street medicating with street drugs.
You are right when you consider the source of this, as it was the left who also abused psychiatry, and used it to silence political dissidents.
So who is defining “crazy” is very important.
This conversation reminds me of a bit from Henry Miller’s Black Spring.

Exactly. I’m sick of that Nazi-loving drag queen, Zelensky.
And I am so tired of the virtue signaling.
Here’s a serious question for anyone that still buys any of the BS about poor Ukraine, and big bad Russia bear.
If Russia is so weak and ineffective, then why in the blue HELL are we sending Ukraine billions of dollars, and arms, every month for nearly the last year? And why is the west having to reduce themselves to turd world status to help the Neo-Nazi drag queen fight off the big meanie, Putin?
And if we did have really do something about Putin, because he’s such a bad guy, then why not make us energy independent again, so we aren’t begging the Saudis, and relying on Russian oil? Why give the boogeyman such a huge strategic advantage?
Did I call this all out at the beginning of all this early last year when it all started? Or did I call it that this all out at the beginning?

Progressive culture – truly an oxymoron if I ever heard one
So very spot on!
What exactly do they think that they are progressing towards, whatever they think it is, it is not good.
Progressive inverted (as always with the terms they use) meaning destruction.
Perhaps progressing towards destruction is their goal, Cloward-Piven in action.
It’s progressive…. but neglected to mention progressively worse.

Since musk took over twitter it has became a democrat propaganda site with all the democrats have government paid accouts and showing up trying to brainwash the public. Is musk really a democrat?

Without ourselves losing the humanity which they presume to take, there is an antidote. The Jews have perfected it over thousands of years. Thus their continued survival and ours too.
Well Said Sarah!
Thank you, Diaspora.
G-d Bless you my friend.
That’s so very poignantly beautiful!

Congratulations from the Sovereignty Movement on the signing of an agreement on the way to a new era
The Sovereignty Movement congratulates the prime minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu, along with our dear friends and sovereignty loyalists, MKs Yariv Levin and Bezalel Smotrich, on concluding an agreement on the way to the establishment of a full-fledged right-wing government, one that is in line with the aspirations of the overwhelming majority of Israeli citizens, as expressed in the election results.
The movement and its members wish and hope for a government that will take the people of Israel into a new era, one of sovereignty over the Land of Israel.

Anyone heard from Lady Sarita?
Good afternoon AB!
She’s very busy at work and with her sister, Yolanda Shoshana who was fairly recently set up at home with hospice care.
Very sad news about her sister.
Is there any news on HerbrewProfit? I so enjoyed his humor.
Agreed. 😪😪😪💔💔💔
I miss Hebrew Prophet on this site alot as well.
He’s not going to be back.
I’m in touch with him almost daily on Twitter or email.
Would you send him a hello from me and well wishes?
Count on it and it’s my pleasure! 💞
Thank you.
You’re very welcome always!
I just used my ranting podium. I gleefully await your response.
We all miss her. Mom, please email Sarita the link below…

*The Sovereignty Movement: The majority in Israel demands that the United States internalize the fact that there is a new government in Israel!*
The Sovereignty Movement who led the struggle against establishing a consulate in Jerusalem for the Palestinians, provides strong opposition to the American intent to revive the idea.
The United States, for whom the banner of democracy is paramount, cannot run roughshod over the results of the democratic elections in Israel. The people of Israel had their say just a few days ago clearly and unambiguously: The citizens of Israel demand to be proprietors of their land, their homeland, and their national identity.
The establishment of a US consulate in Jerusalem for the Palestinians is completely antithetical to the will of the people of Israel.
This is a step that will incite and provoke the Arabs to perform more and more terrorist acts.
The Biden administration’s selection of Hady Amr as the United States’ special representative to the Palestinian Authority, its efforts to revive the two-state solution, and the partition of Jerusalem and the Land of Israel, are steps that fan the flames of the Arab struggle against Israel and seriously undermine regional stability.
The two-state solution is no longer relevant. History has proven this again and again and the people of Israel have become disillusioned with it. Israel went up in flames and paid a heavy price of bloodshed due to this policy. No longer! It is precisely against this policy that the millions of Jewish citizens in Israel voted.
We call upon the American government to absorb the lessons of history, to demand that the Arabs forsake the path of terrorism, to internalize the historical connection between the Jewish people and its land as determined by the San Remo Conference and the resolution of the Commonwealth of Nations, as proven by the history familiar to all, and as proven by the Bible.
The United States is repeating the past errors, and with these errors, adds more fuel to the conflagration in the Middle East.
Just as the Bennett and Lapid government with its various partners opposed the steps leading to establishment of the consulate, so, too, the new Israeli government will forcibly oppose it and will receive the full support of the people of Israel to restrict the administration in Washington and say in a loud voice: Enough is enough! Do not touch Jerusalem! United Greater Jerusalem is the capital of the Jewish people forever!

Salutations everyone!
Is anyone else having problems posting?
It takes me several tries per posting.
Not today; however, yesterday I was unable to post my amusements. It kept saying I needed to log in. Duh…I was logged in.
So far so good.
Sometimes there can be issues if there is an interruption in the network. I’ve the issue a few times in the past.
Like just now.
It’s extremely time consuming.

Black American GIs captured by the Germans were sent to concentration camps. He sure as hell doesn’t know much of anything

He’s a friggin moron.
Another example of someone in the entertainment industry who has millions of followers and media publicity when he should just be taken out and shot.
It would be no big loss if someone did.
Indubitably!
Kanye has always been a loon; the left loved him when he was on their side.

They look so impressed with that fact
Happy birthday to these splendid beings. I’d take their company over many of the beings who pass themselves off as humans. Good health and peace for you and or yours, Tony !

Did they receive cat hip toys? Was there laser play time? If no, you failed the little dictators. 🤓😎😂
Looking at your radiators, I remember having to bleed ours in my very very youthful ages.
Our daughter’s house, remember.
Bbbuuuutttt thé slaves are suppose to care for their feline owners.
😳😳😳!! They have really grown!
Happy birthday!
Funny enough, I have actually been thinking about adopting a kitty lately.
They cost a bit to run. Have you enough dollars in the kitty ?
No pun intended of course. 😉😃
Yes.
I’ve mostly been thinking about it because I am missing the ones I had to bury recently a lot. They were old when they passed. But some of the kitties I see in these memes remind me of them.
I just wish there was a way I could bring them back.
You lost another one besides for Teddy?
I’m so very sorry to hear that.
Two before him. Lily and Natalie.
Oh that’s horrible…
I’m so very sorry.
Thanks. It never gets easier.
I’m sure it doesn’t.
My understanding is that they become like a part of your family.
Of course, I am not equating them to people.
But extremely painful to lose.
They certainly do. If loved and cared for, they are actually very loving and affectionate creatures.
It’s the saddest thing when a pet dies.
I wish you could revivify them as well.
First look inside the Tesla Semi Delivery event
https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-semi-delivery-event/
Don’t be shy, tell us what’s on your mind. I am going to take you at your word and get out my https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0c09a54836798b72892ee20b4405cce4b0f034e4dbef21b2569e8cf518bf7228.gif
Is anyone able to explain to me why many of the younger generation completely lack any knowledge of societal standard? To whit, our great nieces and nephews, in UncleE’s family, have never ever said thank you for anything. ProgenyE’s diva girlfriend is the same. In the first case, it is unsurprising. In the second case, it is surprising as said diva’s family is well mannered.
I started the rant because my non-blood great niece was so over the top happy, with a surprise I sent her, she ‘demanded’ her mom (my non-blood niece) allow her to call me immediately.
It completely befuddles me that saying thank you is so difficult for the upcoming generation.
I was raised to write thank you notes even if I was not fond of a particular gift. I was taught how to convey some kind words about the thoughtfulness of thinking of me. Geez, in these days and times you can go online and find apps/sites, etc. that can assist you in performing this small chore.
**puts ranting podium away** Thank you for enduring my complaining.
Rant away dear lady.
Sapper, she was so excited I could hear her jumping up and down. She said it was the best present ever.
My next rant is going to be on appropriate attire. Not today, but one day. I do not want to wear out my rant welcome.
PLEASE rant away.
(Not that I am happy in the slightest when you are hurting or upset.)
The world has temporarily lost its mind.
We all need to be able to rant.
Usually, I ignore the ill manners; however, they became so glaring when I received such an overjoyed, excited, happy thank you call.
It seems the temporarily continues and continues with no end in sight.
Before I forget to mention, I noticed a typo that I fixed.
Yaakov had FOUR wives, not three.
I edited it.
I totally validate your feelings.
Dealing with people who cannot even pick up the darn phone to say thank you (it doesn’t require a ticket tape parade to express gratitude) when you go the extra miles, literally, must feel like a festering boil that never seems to heal.
I opine that you can say something in a tactful manner.
I highly doubt that anything will change unless you do.
Oh my goodness…
YES!
Appropriate attire.
I’m so very with you.
It blows my mind what people will wear.
As Friday, many depart early, I may hold that rant till Sunday or Monday. We want a full cadre of participants as we belittle the attire illiterate!🤔😎😳🤓
TYMK!
I don’t want to miss it!
We absolutely need your participation.
I’m blushing.
You’re so beyond kind!
SECONDED.
THIRDED!
I really enjoy reading your rants!
Oy Vey.
Diva girlfriend.
That doesn’t sound like a great combination.
One of the most important foundations in Judaism is the trait of gratitude.
We’re called Yehudim which is taken from the name of the tribe of Yehuda (Judah).
Leah named him that name “This time I am thanking Hashem.”
Not that she wasn’t grateful for her other children.
Trust me, she was.
She realized that she was blessed with more than her share (she knew there would be 12 tribes, and Yaakov (Jacob) had four wives.
It is no coincidence that Jews are called Yehudim.
Our prayers are chock-full of expressions of appreciation and praise to Hashem.
It is a Commandment to be grateful and to let people know that you appreciate _____ (fill in the blank).
It doesn’t have to be a formal occasion.
I have always made it my business to say thank you to everyone who has shown me any kindness.
We’re also taught to greet and thank upon exiting everyone who performs a service for you as well.
My bus drivers remembered me very well.
It doesn’t take much.
A smile, a hello, and a thank you are free.
I COMPLETELY understand where you are coming from.
I have raised my children as my parents raised myself and my siblings.
My youngest son missed his van to school today (in Washington Heights (in Manhattan)). It wasn’t his fault.
I drove him.
He thanked me profusely this morning and as soon as he came home today.
It’s very unfortunate that so many weren’t raised with these values that obviously you were raised on and recognize as well.
I totally sympathize.
That must be very painful.
One more thing.
No matter how much pain or misery I was in, that never stopped me from being grateful and appreciative to Hashem and everyone else in my life.
Bear in mind, I have my vices that I am working on.
Being grateful was never one of them.
I say that without any trace of arrogance.
It’s very critical to know who you are.
I’m so sorry for the pain that these people caused you.
It must have really been very hurtful.
It pained me to read it.
Sending you loads of love and hugs… 🤗😘
What is most distressing is the ones on UncleE’s side. Three times a year I drove to attend their events, choir, dance, Special Friends School day.
I find it fascinating my non-blood kin are more thankful than are blood kin. As to why I have the non-blood kin, my BFF and her ex are both only children. I knew them before the children came along. I have been part of their lives their whole lives, hence my kin.
I’m so very sorry to hear that AuntiE.
That must make the pain even worse.
You’re obviously a very kind and thoughtful person who gives tremendous devotion to your family.
We have expectations for family.
When someone really falls short, it hurts.
Indeed, one can have non blood kin.
I have a few extremely close friends like that.
I can totally relate to that.
Are you going to say anything to anyone?
I am not going to say a word. Besides hard feelings, it would be a waste of time. Frankly, I have cut back on my interaction with them. My focus is more on my non-blood kin. I wish they were closer. It is about six to seven hours driving.
I will say texting technology has made keeping in touch so easy. We are in frequent contact through that means.
That’s an excellent point.
If they haven’t gotten it yet…
🤦🤦🤦
I’m sorry that the ones you love the most are domiciled so very far away.
I’m very grateful that you have ways to stay in touch.
Interestingly enough, I rarely use my cell phone except to text and check the temperature to determine attire.
I use my cellphone to post herein.
It enables me to not view things I would rather not see.
(Certain memes.)
All my posting is from an iPad Pro.
True AuntiE! More please!
A decision has been made. My next rant will be around Sunday or Monday with the topic being appropriate attire.
Looking forward to reading that tremendously.
😄😄😄
I am loaded with ranting s for attire. It could turn into a thesis.🤔😳😳😳😳😳😎😎
No worries.
Everyone will be very happy to read it and give your feedback.
Ironically, the next page graphic might make the topic even more ironic.
I fear that Bill is going to make a graphic with unmentionables.
Every time someone does that I post pictures if Victorian unmentionables.🤓🤓😂😂
As in from the Victorian Age?
Yes.

You weren’t kidding!
I like the bottom picture the best!
☺️🤭
My maternal grandmother had such a night gown in the softest cotton!! Of course, I never saw her in the item. I only saw it during laundry. She never left her room unless fully clothed. I will get more in depth on that in the Appropriate Attire Rant.
They’re a set, they go together. Cannot have one without the other. We, maybe some do.
My good friend’s soon to daughter in law is a total ingrate. I keep offering my friend if she wants me to get in touch with my psycho outlaw uncle, and have him come out here and dispose of the little piggy before the wedding. LOL
Here we go. ProgenyE and diva’s birthdays are seven days apart. For her birthday, he purchased flowers, candy, card and took her out for what ended up being a very expensive dinner. Seven days later he received a card and a sports team tee shirt. Yes, I understand it is not about cost. It is about thought; however, that seems like no thought on her part.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/12/newsoms-reparations-committee-will-recommend-223000-per-descendent-slave-housing-discrimination-559-billion-total-cost/
Newsome’s reparations committee will recommend $223,000 per descendent of slaves, total estimated cost $559,000,000,000, that is before the flood from the other Democrat he11 holes, with the intent of getting free money.
Let him and the Pelosi crime family pay for these people.
In fact, let all of the Dems in the state who voted for him and his ilk contribute.
I’m so very sick of these people.
My rant (I believe this will be an encore)…
😁😁😁
If the Jewish People would be receiving reparations from every country that threw us out (for the very nefarious crime of being Jewish), we would be rolling in insane amounts of money.
Everything was stolen from us except for some sparse possessions that we were allowed to take.
(The Exodus was an exception.)
The Jewish People never had chips on our shoulders, we’re hard workers and time after time had to start from scratch.
Any time a Dem says that rubbish to me, I immediately shut them down with what I just wrote.
I’m so fed up from these leeches.
According to Dem logic, Jews should be the worst criminals on the planet. And according to Neo-Nazis, like Kanye, and the incels that believe him, they are. And both are disgusting evil jealous liars.
If more people spent more time learning from the Jews, especially the examples set by the orthodox, we wouldn’t be having so many problems.
Of course we are… according to the Dems and antisemites.
Yup. Evil jealous liars, all of them!
I agree with you regarding your closing statement.

Oakland CA is planning on giving $100 of taxpayer money to every person , legal or not, to donate to a candidate of their choice.
Money laundering , which turns taxpayer money into Democrat money.
Where’s Sarah’s torch when you need it?
California should be made into its own country.
Then we’ll see how long it can continue to exist.
We have to rescue a few people like @dr_darko:disqus, @dump_boehner:disqus, Marty, Carolyn, and those like them beforehand.
They can then identify as illegal aliens and receive all of the “freebies” and come on over.
I’ll drive down and crowd them into my Mercedes SLK 350!
Sounds like a plan! 😊😊😊👍👍👍
Reparations are illegal and the democrats know that. No one owes no one anything for the past. That would actually be cheating people of other races out of their money. A form of stealing
Right. The only way any kind of reparations can ever work is when you have an individual who was actually victimized by another. It helps if both parties are still alive.
True.
I love how you phrased that! LOL!
If the parties are not alive they are not reparations. They become extortion
OF COURSE!
That’s why I referred to it as legalized theft as well.
(They’ll attempt to make it legal.)
Exactly.
For certain!
They’re trying to legalize theft even more.
The whole idea is coming from racists.
https://fee.org/articles/reparations-would-cost-trillions-and-are-unconstitutional/
Good God. I despise Newsom, especially because this will cause those people who actually produce to leave that state and come to Red states and pollute the electorate with their Marxist voting habits.

Oh, time for a now page soon.
Before or after the gym?
After the gym and after the pool.
Gym is finished already for they day… just swimming remains.
ENJOY in the best of health always!
Mermaid free I hope.
AMEN TO THAT!
I hope so to…. but hard to say. It’s like heads or tails.
Very well met.
Maybe they’ll all be out of commission tonight.
Hope springs eternal.
Actually we are having a freak winter storm. I do think they come out in the cold (freezes off their leg and arm pit hair… and beards)
Oh that is seriously DISGUSTING.
I don’t know how you can handle swimming with these creatures.
I can never look at mermaid imagery ever again, LOL. Not even the beautiful paintings, as the lesbian mermaid image is emblazoned in my memory forever.
Would it help if they were partially covered with a custom made set of bloomers?
I was just waiting for you to say that.
It was only a matter of time.
Maybe if you wore Bloomers they’d never come back again.
Oh, if that was the case, I think they’d be there daily.
Pardon me.
My 18 year old wants to know why I started laughing so hard that I started coughing.
I shook my head and said some things you just don’t want to know.
Gives me an idea for the next page graphic.
NO! NO! NO! NO! 😱😱😱😱😱😱
Just say no.
You already did Alice in Bloomerland.
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
You don’t want to lose your originality now…
How about Vinny visiting the IDF?
What would that have to do with bloomers?
So, I’m guessing that means that the IDF never adopted a “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy? Oh, wait… That would be a form of telling. LOL
You’re beyond incorrigible.
The word hasn’t been invented yet.

That’s a GOOD ONE, Rivka! I’m resharing this!
Please do!
I became very famous on Twitter from that meme.
I also posted it on Truth Social.
Please amplify it.
It’s true.
LOL, I just found it. I was late to the party!
Jeez… I say Mermaids, then Bill says Bloomers, and the page is suddenly over a thousand comments. LOL
Just remember.
You started it.
Even when @nicetomeetyou2:disqus does, you always know how to egg him on.
He’s easy to egg on. LOL
This is very true.
In this regard, you’re a real pro.
Thank you kindly. As you know, I take great pride in my work. LOL
Yes, you do!
LOL!
I try to imagine how dangerous Marty would be if he tried. He seems to cause trouble without even trying. LOL
That’s so very true!
ROTFL!
Now you’ve gone and done it.
@nicetomeetyou2:disqus is going to make another Bloomer page again.
With the two week turnover….
HASHEM YERACHEIM!!!
😳😳😳😱😱😱🤯🤯🤯
LOL.. But that’s still not as big as accomplishment as causing the editor a paper to resign as he did. I really need to up my game. LOL
TRUTH.
That was extremely impressive.
ROTFL!
The funniest part is when he tells those stories, there is zero build up. It just gets injected in to normal conversation, and comes out of left field, and told like it is as regular of an occurrence as buying a new package of socks.
That’s what makes it even more priceless.
😂🤣😂
Someone should create a show called “Marty.”
I’m trying to convince him to write this stuff down.
His cross country trip alone = the ordeal with the rats being the first part of, would make a great show. LOL
Every time I think about that story, my sides hurt from laughing…
It’s beyond worth it.
That should be the pilot episode.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I am so surprised that van of his made it all that way and back. It’s transmission went out a couple of years ago, and is sitting in the parking space next to mine with two flat tires. If that thing could talk, about now it would be saying “please shoot me.” LOL
NO. WAY.
I cannot stop laughing…
Honestly that’s a tremendous miracle.
It blows my mind.
Do you reside in the same building?
Same complex. His unit is in the building next to mine.
That is SPECTACULAR!
GOOD FOR YOU BOTH!
Bloomers and mermaids, and not even any talk of Bamba!
That’s practically heresy.
Not if it’s one of the blasphemous flavours.
Hazelnut?
My favorite flavor.
Mine too.

WOW, AE, now those are a pair of bloomers!
Just for you.🤓😎
Yet, it was posted to me. LOL
Good morning!
You didn’t even bring it up this time.
For once. LOL
Update…..
The mermaids were not at the pool this evening…. but there was something on-par, perhaps worse. Another gaggle of mythical beings. For now, I’m calling them unicorns.
Good morning!
Good Heavens! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
What made you conjure the description of unicorns?
I love unicorns! 🦄
PLEASE check your audio.
I explained why it’s so very important to me.
