Royal Mockery – The Fog Of Arrogance And Pride

By Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov Jax, Fl.

As the planks flexed under his weight, while crossing the old rickety bridge, the frightened pedestrian prayed for mercy: “Dear G-d, if only I will make it across the span, I shall give 50% of my worth to charity, for what good is my wealth if I’m to lose my life?”

Ted Williams and Us

By Yochanan Gordon

Most of us have by now come to know who Ted Williams is. Just in case there are those reading this that have not chanced upon his internet video that has garnered over five million views and his subsequent life story, here it is in a nutshell. Ted Williams, born and raised in Brooklyn, was a former radio personality who ran into hard times with drugs, alcohol and the law which sadly spiraled out of control leaving him homeless and perhaps even worse – hopeless. Despite his negligence and the consequences that he suffered as a result he held onto that rather dormant sense of hope that one day he would be given another chance to succeed.

Disturbing video footage tells this bizarre story.
