Hey R' Bards, do you know what this means? ;D

Agav, we have to start a Lechaim time for all the Israelis.
8:30 by you = 3:30 for us = not happening.

Let's shoot for 8:00,
Maybe for a new thread too...

cmon rage!! Are you really one of those dudes who think shoe polish tastes better from a wine bottle??

Hi chevra

Please share with us

Whatever u drank on shabbos

It's almost Shabbos here...and I bought some Woodford under the influence of GYE! The guy in the shop said it's amazing also. So I'm pretty excited to try this Woodford that's so present on people's minds. Good Shabbos!

Fratig nacht - Efrat merlot
Shabbos ba'toog - Rest of bottle
Havdooleh - Efrat Cabernet

My uncle came in from the chutz, and brought me a nice present.
Two chosheve bottles of scotch.
A 21 livet, and a blue label.

NICE!!

My uncle happens to be awesome.
I hope he's not a member here.
If you are - don't tell my father I'm here.
