Cool. Either one of his children or grandchildren got married 2 years ago, I think.

oops bad connection...

they wouldn't know me, it's my father's aunt and cousins and their children and so on.

Would they know you by name or only your parents?

Ungar sounds familiar, o, no it's Lungar.

2009-06-01T18:27:04.523-04:00

Actually, pretty sure most, if not all, families I stayed by didn't have separate sitting.
Really? Maybe we stayed by them. This time we stayed by Ungar and ate by Sirkus, though could be spelled wrong.

Healthy or not, eww.

Well, we weren't and all of us go in at once and there were at least 20 people.

Yeah, but our shul is warned beforehand.

2009-06-01T18:15:12.456-04:00

wow, that's a rare family you stayed by, that didn't have separate seating. I've got tons of relatives there that I barely know.

the meat jello is ptcha and really unhealthy, I never tasted it.

My neighbor actually went there to get a bracha a week ago because of her situation. My neighbor's husband was saying how it's like business and that they will allow you to cut the line if they know your going to give them a lot of money. They don't want to loose a customer by making you wait 3 hours.

She told me how they made her wear a head covering on top of her sheitel, and she had a hard time putting it on. There were ladies who asked her if she was from williamsberg, now that was funny, then when she said she's from flatbush, they asked her if she flew there!

Free shabbaton dude.

2009-05-24T20:03:18.979-04:00

Pardon this out-of-towner (and grateful for it!), but why would you all want to go davka to New Square? What's the big deal? And isn't New Square the folks whose votes were bought by the Clintons with some dubious last minute presidential pardons?

And knowing is half the battle

2009-05-10T23:24:00.000-04:00

Yeah, unlike Danny S's wife who got a big, fat 0%. Or Vita with her 20%.

In that case, I'll refer you to one of my previous posts.

2009-05-10T23:22:00.000-04:00

Sally Hazel -- In this context, I meant the people from the community who went to New Square. Obviously that is not how I define 'our' community, but I just asked that way because Moshe and Child Ish were talking about something that happened in New Square.

I'm trying to figure out who people are in the blogosphere and whether I know them in real life.

Moshe invited me, and I feel like one of the tribe...

2009-05-10T23:17:00.001-04:00

Moshe invited me, and I feel like one of the tribe. I did test at 50% Russian.

What's 'our' community?

Everyone's talking about the Lag B'Omer BBQ now... I want to go but I have so many things right now that I'm not sure I'd have time.

Child Ish -- are you from our community?

HeHe. Don't tell him it was my recommendation.

2009-05-10T22:21:00.000-04:00

the meat jello tastes great, you and your strange food should love to try something new. As for the brocha thing; dude,you have got to relax. People will always be that way no matter what the cause happens to be. Breath in, breath out, and break the guy's nose.
