ohh, I see. I have a kasha on rav wolfson then - with all the poskim discusing toiros on pizah, shiurim for washing, etc.., isn't that an aliyah for it? I remember the poskim discussing a certain animal..one of them said when he saw it 'ah, this is the heilige X-min', since so much torah was written on it. Wouldn't that be enough to be able to eat pizza? Also, is it shayach that yidden in asia used to eat sushi, being mesaken it? Also, how come he looks at pizza as a new min, as opposed to looking at it as bread, cheese and sauce(all of which ere certainly tikun-ed)? I'm really curious - I dont have a kesher with rav wolfson, but he has a prominent position in my yeshiva so I'm sure i'll be able to talk to him at some point.

Wow! tryinG!

You really know your Mare Mekoimois.

Bochur,

That's a bit too Teef for me Oiven Oif, so I will have to review it with some Yishuv Hadas & get back to you on it at a l8ter date.

MAZEL TOV EFSHAR!!!


I'm really late, but better late than never. Mazel Tov, Mazel Tov! Hashem should grant you a lifetime of true Avodas Hashem in the truest sense. I want you to know that your poetry adds a tremendous ammount to our war effort. You know, its not easy for people to change their way of thinking. (As the 12 steppers say: it doesn't help to read the steps, you have to live them) The arts help a lot in getting through to people's hearts. Between your poetry, bardichev's humor and of course Uri's songs the forum has become a whole lot more effective. You have a tremendous zechus.

I hope you continue your full fledged involvement in the forum, you are one of the great powers over here.

Battleworn,

Thanks!

Words of chizuk coming from any front line soldier gives me great strength.

But, words of chizuk coming from a wounded soldier as you adds that much more to know that "Yes We Can!"

I missed you very much the last few weeks you weren't here.

Whatever the reason, I look forward on seeing you back full force.

You have a lot of unfinished work to do.

Can't wait!

one of my specialties...

Thank you E. L. About my unfinished work, I'm trying to figure out if this forum is really the right place for it. I hope and pray that I'll reach a maskana on that very soon.

I know what you mean. The way I understand it is that we are all on the same page as to the fact that there are "shivim ponim latoiro"
I also don't think anyone disagrees with your mehalich or the torahs mehalich.
I think its just a matter of interpretation of for instance what the word "Loser" means & I hear both sides of the argument as much as I feel more comfortable with the way you see it.
I think you take it a bit to serious.
Just put your approach down the way you see it fit to be & if there are some people that respectfully disagree then so be it.
For those of us that this approach does work for them it will be very helpful.
And Reb Guard will be more then glad to have it here on GYE on the top of the page as it has been until now.
Please listen to my advice you won't regret it.
We can even do a poll on top of your thread to see how many people do want you to go ahead and finish the Torah Approach with full clarity.
You have my vote!
E.L.
