I actually don't remember off the top of my head. I will find out and let you know, Bli Neder.

Oh, boy...we're getting political here!! :D :D

Hi Everybody,

Sorry for being gone for so long, I have been super super busy, and that is why I haven't been posting, no other reason. Please don't worry, I was not offended by anything anyone here said, I really have to think about it a lot. One Life laid it in thick and I appreciate it, it is just hard to say I'm going to cut myself off from so much of the world. Reb Guard was talking about only going to seperate things for Chol Hamoed, that may be easy if you're chassidishe but if your from a family and place where everyone else is going to places (like the zoo, mind you, I'm not talking about someplace horrible) where there are going to be women who are not dressed kiderech hatorah, you can't just lock yourself away... but it is plenty to think about....

The Bad News: I almost fell. I had to ask Reb Guard a shailah on this one, and B"H B"H B"H, it was not a fall, only a slip, but it was a real mistake on my part. It was 5:30 AM and I had just finished learning and preparing a shiur and bam! So I really need to be more vigilant, and I will be looking into accountability software

The Good News: I'm at day 46! More than halfway there!!!

I'm probably going to be pretty busy in the next few weeks and will slow down a bit from my previous posting pace, but I love you guys all the same and appreciate so much what you're all doing for me, my life has changed dramatically since i've started GYE!!!

Thanks!

WOW WOW WOW!!
i didn't remember that i slowed the train (500 KM per hour  :D :D) and gave you to  get off from.  :D :D

05:30 AM its a time which the Y"H can work very "effectively", i assume that your wife was sleeping... :-\

this is classic case which you have to prevent yourself from.  not to be alone with the PC (K9 ??) at a crazy hours.

its a big temptation!!

we must remember that the Y"H even if we feel that its  a little take a nap, it always there wait to the opportune moment to attack.
he is so smart this EVIL.

hope you skip this slip successfully and continue with steve and me   to hit the 90.
you must learn from this GEVER.

we trust you.

Haba -

Glad to see we're both back. Keep up the VIGILANCE!!

Back in my voyeur days, I used to wear sunglasses when I went out on trips with the family, so my wife and kids couldn't see where my eyes roamed. WRONGO!!

Now I see that I have to make sure to go without the shades, and stay close to my family, and always remember that I don't want my children to think less of me, and certainly don't want my wife to see me ogle. I prefer shalom bayis over a resentful and hurt spouse.

Somehow, when my Yiras Shomayim is weak, at least i can fall back on Fearing my Wife. And rolling pins. 

Haba - great to have you back! Keep moving forward, and mazal tov on passing the halfway mark to your first big step forward!

Remember that every day is valuable, every second is precious.

Haba i just dont get it!! You go to the zoo and you have a chance to look at all those beautiful animals and you waste your time on looking at other women??? It just doesnt make any sense to me!!! Ok i guess i cant understand everything!!





























  :D

Yidster, the mishna brura on going to, for instance, basketball games (and other sporting/theater/mass entertainment events) can be found in siman shin zayin, sif tes zayin, mishna brura sif katan nun tes.

Wow Aryeh Tahor,

I just checked the Mishna Berura you pointed too, and it definitely is a heavy hitter. I will cut and paste it here for anyone else who might be interested in it...

וכ״ש ההולך לטרטיאות וקרקסיאות [והם מיני שחוק כדאיתא בעבודת כוכבים דף י״ח] ושאר מיני תחבולות וגם בפורים אין מותר רק השחוק שעושים זכר לאחשורוש [מ״א] ובעו״ה כיום נעשה דבר זה כהפקר אצל איזה אנשים לילך לבית טרטיאות והכתוב צוח ואומר אל תשמח ישראל אל גיל וכו׳ וגם איכא בזה משום מגרי יצה״ר בנפשם ואחז״ל כל המתלוצץ נופל בגיהנם שנאמר וגו׳ ויסורין באין עליו שנאמר ועתה אל תתלוצצו פן יחזקו מוסריכם [ע״ש בגמרא עוד
