I went to the mikveh, and it's the one where the boir of maim chaim is underneath, not by the side. So as I was standing on a tablet with two holes in it, that separates the maim elyonim from tachtoinim, it occurred to me: hey, it's boor al gabei boir. it's better if spelled in Hebrew. BENDUR, did you get it?

בור על גבי בור

Sorry reb obermottel, I takke didn't get it.

Though if you want to get technical, mayim chayim (as per taharas hazav) is only may ma'ayan, no?

In this week's Parsha (Ki Seitzei) we learn that the nation (Moav) which sent its women to trigger the Jewish People are to be shunned. The Torah adds: Lo sidrosh Shlomam v'tovasam kol yameicha le'olam!!!

does that mean, you're of the opinion that we TAKA not allowed to daven for a wellbeing of a provocatively dressed woman?
I think that I'm with Dov on this one:dov wrote on 08 Sep 2011 21:37:

It is reasonable to assume that nobody, not even the publishers of Playboy and all the schmutz on the internet, is trying to be machshil anyone. They are trying to make money, period. Same for hookers, and same for me when I was acting out using other people.

However, all though drug dealers are there for the money, the way they assure their income is by getting you hooked, i.e. machshil you into addiction. Same can be argued for porn purveyors. Not so poor girls on the street who are just looking for attention they never got from their fathers.

Baby steps.
If the road is pulling you down, it's a sign that you are going uphill, so just press harder on the gas!

Have a great day - unless, of course, you made other plans.

oh, I know you didn't get it, I was just trying to get you to post on my thread

and how do you know this mikva is not connected to a wellspring somewhere?
one day, we gonna meet in person and I will help you to pull that broomstick out of your behind (if this is too graphic, you can edit it) and then we can laugh about all of this l'mafrea.

If I could edit it, I would edit it!

Where is that Kedusha fellow when you really need him?

My assumption about the mikvah was because "kvall mikvaos" are uncommon, wheras bor al gabei bor is a widespread chumra to be yotzei sheetas chabad...

And a kvall mikvah often doesn't need an oitzar in such a fashion as a rainwater mikvah.

But hey, whatever!

I'm just another bozo on the bus here!

Guys, I hate to explain a joke, but what i think he means is in the difference in how he spells boor and boir. One is english

boor[boor] Origin Like this word? boor /bʊər/ Show Spelled[boor] Show IPA
noun
1. a churlish, rude, or unmannerly person.
2. a country bumpkin; rustic; yokel.
3. peasant.
4. Boer.

One is hebrew. Like to dig a boir. or if your litvish is sounds like bore.

The word "boor" means pretty much the same thing in Hebrew too, an empty person devoid of both torah and derech eretz. As in "loi boor yirei cheit" in Pirkei Avos.

!אנא עבדא דקודשא בריך הוא

וּבְיָדְךָ כֹּחַ וּגְבוּרָה וּבְיָדְךָ לְגַדֵּל וּלְחַזֵּק לַכֹּל

"If it would be so easy there wouldn't be a GYE, but if it would be impossible there also wouldn't be a GYE."

Finally! I didn't realize that unless posted in Jokes section, jokes need to be explained

And Gevura, don't let BENDUR get you: technicaly, it's ein boor yirei cheit.

I don't know if you can do this, but I am able to deliberately unfocus my eyes when I want to, so that everything is just a blur. I do this sometimes when there's someone in front of me that I can't get away from. So you can make it look like you are looking at her directly, but you are not really seeng much. Just be careful that you don't cross your eyes while you do it, then she'll really think you're weird ;D :

Gevura!
