RCA member Davens with the newly annointed Mashiach

Yup...it is true. I read this story at Haaretz.com. I am going to post now the response of the RCA:

" Rabbi Haskel Lookstein, the head of New York's Kehilath Jeshurun synagogue and a leading member of the city's modern Orthodox community, was one of several religious leaders who took part in reading sections of a nondenominational responsive prayer during the National Prayer Service at Washington's National Cathedral."

RCA response: "The long-standing policy of the Rabbinical Council of America, in accordance with Jewish law, is that participation in a prayer service held in the sanctuary of a church is prohibited," the statement read. "Any member of the RCA who attends such a service does so in contravention of this policy and should not be perceived as representing the organization in any capacity."

What a nice political statement. Why haven't they thrown him out of the RCA? Why such a not attacking response?
If we look back at a controversy in Monsey around the talmid Chacham R. Mordechai Tendler, who the RCA dumped on, and ruined his life and future, and on top of all this, he has been vindicated on all accounts!!!!

What double standing B.S. We are dealing with Avodah Zarah here folks!!! I was taught that this one is considered as Yhareg val Yavor...the big three. This is all the RCA is going to do!!!

Max's Has Listened to our post and our voice

It appears that Max's has listened to the voices of reason....my blog. I have just confirmed this after speaking with them. The Sushi will be served in the evenings.

IS this going to last??? Absolutely not. For the same reason they closed down this option in the first place.

I think if Sushi is going to make it it needs to be a full day affair. I really think the Pizza store/Pastry oven needs to consider this option. These facilities do not require a full time Mashgiach, which would help lower the costs.

Once again we try and fall short and set ourselves up for failure. I hope the Pastry Oven opens it's doors to this idea.

Anyway...the sushi will probably be made by some underpaid/illegal Hispanic, who knows Sushi like a Mashgiach knows Kashrus!

Let us pray together that someday Silver Spring will obtain the stature of a Large Jewish Community that will have all the resources a "big" Jewish community has...we are almost there...we got Chinese, pizza, Mexican, BUT NO SUSHI.....I tell you what let us take baby steps, FIRST get SUSHI then build a Mikva! There is a Kabbalistic connection as fish is a simin for Pru Urevu.

In the words of our new President:
Can we make sushi a reality......Yes we can

Olos Ha Shaccur - At Last

I heard this title from a dear person of mine.

I apologise for the lack of posts. I have been quite busy!
So here he is the New President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

I thought the speech was terrible and had zero positive tone. I also think that Obama failed(as usual) to put his heart into the speech. He is a great speaker, however, he continues to fall short of having his heart drive his words.

One thing I noticed about Obama throughout his campaign and even now is his lack of patriotism.

However, for the first time ever, I saw a picture of him saluting with a general during the parade. To his credit it was really the first time I have ever seen this before from him. He looked a bit stiff and the pose seemed un-natural for him.

Let us start this new beginning off with a poll!!!

Democrats have nerve, what a double standard

We are all aware of what happened in Chicago with Blagoavitch. Recently, he had appointed a senator to the open seat that B.O. had left(smelly).
It appears that the democratic party was up in arms about Mr. Burris's appointment but NOT because of his long history of government work for Chicago, because he certainly has the resume for the freshman senator position.

However, it is the "tainted" ASSOCIATION he has with BLAGO and the method of him being appointed to the senate seat by him!!

Let's then examine this objectively...

We have a well-versed, experienced, government worker who has all the things a senator needs. He has been LEGALLY appointed to the senate seat by the LEGALLY sitting governor of Chicago.

His appointment is only in question due to his " associations" with the fellow who appointed him... Follow me now...

B.O. not a long track record as a government maker, ASSOCIATED with:
1. William Ayers, a person who bombed the Capitol building, terrorist.
2. Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who curses America, Israel, etc. B.O. was a active member of his church for over a decade...

WHERE WAS THE DEMOCRAT'S CONCERN THERE???!!!!!!

I know that this has nothing to do with Silver Spring...but I have something coming too.

Happy New Year - Let's Start on a Fresh Note

Happy New Year to all that celebrate and look forward to it!



I would like to take this time to thank all my followers, believers, and non-believers on their contributions to the Blog whether it was intelligent or grade school like...for a mouse!



Although us Jews do not believe in New Years Day, we should however acknowledge it as a day off to spend time with the family, and look forward to the business year..for those of us that work!!

As a new President looms...B.O. will filling the air in Washington...I recommend that we all take the precautionary measures from protecting ourselves from B.O.

1. Don't work as hard
2. Don't "Socialize" with your friends and fellow citizens
3. "Guard" yourself "Right" from B.O's attempt to drain your Dollars
4. Look out for B.O.'s smelly politics as evidenced from the armpit of America..Chicago

Do not "change" your greetings to B"O from B"H...

Results of having a Kiddush every Shabbos at Shul

According to the poll taken People are not so interested in having a Kiddush every Shabbos.

For the people who Free-Load... I honestly don't care what you think... you are a bunch of blood sucking parasites.. If you do not like the Shul enough to become a member go start your own!!

And if you do start a shul let me know!!

The "CHEVRA Kidisha" - Is it worth it??

Okay, by now I hope I got your attention. If you live in Silver Spring and you know of the potpourri of Minyanim in YISE, there has been a shortfall of $$$ to provide a Kiddush every single Shabbos at the 8:00 Minyan.

For those of you that are from out of Maryland, the CHEVRA is a anonymous (mmm... maybe there is something wrong with that) group/club that pays a certain amount of money every month on top of their membership dues to be able to supply a Kiddish every week.

Most recently, there has been an appeal to recruit more members and increase the "CHEVRA Kidisha" membership by + $100 or something.

Wow...what blatant Chutzpa! What a bunch of fiscally irresponsible fools!

This is the same type of thinking for the Mikva....Yes the Mikva!!
Let's get our priorities straight!! Why not appeal for each member to pay their regular membership dues in on time!!?? Why do we need a kiddush every single shabbos????
Let's cut spending not increase!!! This is the problem with today's thinking!! It is all about the luxury not about the basics!

Let's get our priorities straight!! Get ready people! the Gematria of CHEVRA = OBAMA!
