  • Pinchas Who?

    Who the heck is Pinchas Taylor and why didn’t he make a brocha ha’eitz before slamming that apple?

      It’s relevant to Pinchas Taylor because it makes Pinchas Taylor relevant.

  • Haskama from a legend?

    Wow he’s got a photo of himself with baseball hall of gamer Reggie Jackson on his website.

  • This was great

    Geared to people who want to know stuff in a dignified manner! No of color jokes or silly antics that disgrace the Torah cv”s.
    Chabad lite may not appreciate it. But the rest of us do.
    Keep up the great work. I’d love to see more of this.
