If even 25% of this stuff is true (and I don't doubt that 100% of it is), how does a parent rationally continue to send his child to YTT? Is it a social thing - i.e., that every other parent is sending their kid there so they continue to do so too? Is it for reasons of getting into high school? I'm really at a loss to understand this all and it's been bothering me for a while.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10431571396675578180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-39927238472798261822007-03-04T18:30:00.000-05:002007-03-04T18:30:00.000-05:00They both don't work!They both don't work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-29761396583322310302007-03-04T18:29:00.000-05:002007-03-04T18:29:00.000-05:00What does a pay phone in the Bronx and a Kollel gu...What does a pay phone in the Bronx and a Kollel guy in Lakewood have in common?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-80676921640238876672007-03-04T11:14:00.000-05:002007-03-04T11:14:00.000-05:00Rabbi Ariel Sokolovsky who hangs out on Shmarya's ...Rabbi Ariel Sokolovsky who hangs out on Shmarya's blog is a real piece of work and that's putting it mildly. While you have regular Lubobs and Moshiachistim, that guy is from the small minority of "Elokistim" who actually say out loud that M.M. Schneursohn is G-d kaviyochol. The only reason why Shmarya tolerates him is because Sokolovsky spends a good part of the day digging up dirt on the other Lubavitchers who hate him, which he passes along to Shmarya.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-46778486844444187762007-03-04T02:16:00.000-05:002007-03-04T02:16:00.000-05:00Chag Sameach to all.For the first time in years, t...Chag Sameach to all.<BR/><BR/>For the first time in years, the Bozoer Rebbe descended from the supernal planes to celebrate Purim with his chassidim (I see'd 'em too, but what are they?).

They are in complete denial of the facts. Based on their logic, if Kolko is innocent until proven guilty, then all of his victims over the last forty years are all guilty until proven innocent. They are all guilty of a massive conspiracy to destroy this individual by making these false accusations of molestation. This conspiracy would go down in history as one of the most elaborate and long standing, spanning three generations and dozens of twisted and vindictive grown men, teenagers and young children. <BR/><BR/>The defense you constantly hear of Kolko and other molesters is that they are good, decent people and that they never saw them molest anyone. In fact, Rabbi Sokolovsky posted a comment on Shmarya's blog that he saw Eiseman for "TWO WEEKS" in Kishinev and that he never molested anyone. These people don't understand the nature of molesters. They think that a typical molester attacks the first child he sees. They expect him to walk into a crowded room and start grabbing a kids' genitals. They don't understand that they are very calculating and very selective, choosing carefully the victim, place and time. They do not walk around with a label on their forehead "MOLESTER", nor do they wear stocking caps. I think education regarding this sickness is important as well as all the other things mentioned such as background checks, registry and mandatory reporting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-25053116568005436582007-03-03T20:30:00.000-05:002007-03-03T20:30:00.000-05:00i think chiam nehoff has a dance partner.i think chiam nehoff has a dance partner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-17895790572407945282007-03-03T19:09:00.000-05:002007-03-03T19:09:00.000-05:00I was wondering if anyone could let me know why af...I was wondering if anyone could let me know why after all the time has gone by that the Jewish Times would write any stories as the did with Steve.

I know the m.o. of many doctors. Anyone I know who is frey or not a Yid does not charge. Almost every frum doctor I know violates the ethical code, wether they are chassidish, yeshivish or modern orthodox. The only two I know that are ethical are modern orthodox. There is one yeshivish doctor who dances around the code by not charging you, but he purposely makes you wait many hours and sees every patient that came after you so that you will go somewhere else. The guy is also a terrible money grubber that sends you to the lab for frivolous investigations so he can get a kickback. <BR/><BR/>There was an incident with one Flatbush doctor. Even though he officially takes a certain insurance, he told the patient pay me cash. When the patient argued, the doctor said that insurance has extra paperwork and wait time, so go get cash somewhere today and come back to pay me. The patient said he is going out of town and does not have $60 cash on him. The shmuck said, you know people in Flatbush, go borrow the money and bring it to me. The patient said he is not comfortable especially when the doctor should take the insurance. The argument became heated. The patient then asked the doctor what happened to his ethics of not charging another doctor. The shmuck basically told him I want my money so go screw yourself. It then became really heated and a huge scene in the office so the shmuck finally backed down while grumbling but still submitted a claim to insurance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-24281562267005939932007-03-02T09:28:00.000-05:002007-03-02T09:28:00.000-05:00Are there any "rabbonim" that are still stupid eno...Are there any "rabbonim" that are still stupid enough to defend Kolko & Margo?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-39463500784024148042007-03-02T09:21:00.000-05:002007-03-02T09:21:00.000-05:00Boog would say that these grub fressers are sticki...Boog would say that these grub fressers are sticking their cholent stains paws in your pockets to steal your money in between picking their noses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-69677304610157638572007-03-02T09:17:00.000-05:002007-03-02T09:17:00.000-05:00Ombudsman is too busy to answer such poshut questi...Ombudsman is too busy to answer such poshut questions.

I know one guy who steals the improper tax and he went to YTT. How many of the other thieves have kids in YTT and they don't give a damn that Kolko & Margo are rotzchim? Why do you think even YTT rebbeim do nothing when there own children are molested? Don't forget also that YTT rebbeim supplement grubba Lipa's shvartz gelt salary with gratuities from the Hungarian parents. That's why they won't do the right and moral thing which is to quit their jobs. The YTT rebbeim read this.

One store on 13th Ave was charging 6 percent. When I complained that Mastercard only charges about 2%, they had the chutzpa to say the rest is "schar tircha" (with a Hungarian accent of course). This is a violation of the merchant agreement with both Visa & Mastercard. Amex lets them as long as they violated the policy with the other cards. I called Mastercard to report the store. They told the store if they get one more complaint they are kicked out of the network so the store stopped charging the fee.
