Dangerous Ground

Last night I was walking home from the lchaim of Yitzchak Lerman, with whom I spent countless hours last year commuting from Morristown to New York. As I was walking back from the festivities (and some decent sesame chicken) I ran into a couple of friends of mine, Shaya Lowenstien and he who (intelligently) prefers not to be named, and Shaya mentioned that he's never been mentioned on this here blog. I told him that I'd mention that he's single and looking for a soul mate, and he laughed and said "Great!" I don't think he believed me when I said it though...

I guess that's the last time he'll say something like that to you!

Altie said...

:) best way to advertise.

Just like a guy said...

Righteous: Knowing him... :)

Altie: You interested?

e: I know, I figured there'd be lots of interesting discussion here, but no luck, eh?

You and your shadchan business...

Yitzchak said...

Shadchanus makes good money.

Altie said...

:) TRS- I see you still wanna get my shadchanus gelt. Keep trying, sir. One day, someday. I'll invite you to my lechaim, even if you don't make the shidduch.

You are evil.

Mushkie said...

Yitchok Lerman??? His kallah is a good friend of mine, not to mention that I'm an official member of her family...it's a small world. She has a younger sis, you know. If this Shaya is intelligent enough then they would be a good match.

Cheerio said...

nu, lets hear about him.
i know we're all joking, but we have proof that shidduchim can made in the most unexpected ways...

Yitzchak said...

Why joke? I've seen worse reasons to match people up than "if he's intelligent enough"

Nemo said...

Yeah, like: "he's a Lubavitcher in college and she's a Lubavitcher in college."

Yitzchak said...

I've seen worse:"She has two college degrees. He graduated high school semiliterate in both Jewish and Gentile."

nemo said...

He graduated high school semiliterate in both Jewish and Gentile.

Even semi-literacy is a rare breed where I'm from.

Just like a guy said...

Mushkie: Shaya is both intelligent and funny.

Altie said...

ooooo we gonna sell him?

Altie said...

:) Maybe you should let him know you are auctioning him off.

Depends. Is he good looking?

bonne said...

What's the currency? Goats?

Yitzchak said...

A friends mother once received an offer from a bedouin in Tel Aviv. 3 goats two sheep and half a live cow (b'toras shutfus with some other bochur).

When I heard I told her that the guy was being progressive, offering her not her father.

I know someone who's looking so I'll open the bidding.

Yitzchak said...

ps nemo: I thought you're average tam could read at least far'n shacharis thillim for shabbos mevorchim? That means everyone's semiliterate.

Nemo said...

Halevai people said the words ...

Altie said...

And the great TRS finally caved and got facebook. Welcome to the real world.

bonne said...

I believe I just cackled.

Qtap said...

Slightly off topic, but why is the poll not made of ticky boxes?

Mushkie said...

TRS, very important qs: Is he chilled? Is he chassidish? How old is he? This is serious. Maybe email me.

Altie said...

Babang! 2 weeks later we all get invited to the lechaim.

Just like a guy said...

Altie: I feel like a yoely when I say it, but "It's for business."

Mushkie: All right, I hope I got the right email address.

Altie said...

Well your business is your business, and I don't have to know what that business is.

Use it in good health.

Just like a guy said...

Altie: You don't have to know, doesn't mean you can't know!

And thanks :)

Altie said...

oooooh that's you? Your dear wife invited me. She's good at publicity :) K now I'll join.

Just like a guy said...

That's me. My dear wife is incredible. Thanks for joining, and spread the word!

Altie said...

I'll send it to my whole list but no one will know what it is.

Just like a guy said...

Thanks! Hey, coming from you, I'm sure they'll lap it up! :)

Altie said...

lol. Okay not sure what you meant by that, but I'll take it as a good thing.

Just like a guy said...

T'was meant so. Now I off to sleep (in case you were wondering why I, a married man, am still up, it's because we just finished shlepping a bookcase and sofa that my dear wife found on Craigslist into our basement with the help of Yehuda Welton)

Altie said...

yay! I saw her status. Happy you got it for such a good deal. (I was not wondering that, it is not often that I wonder abt married men, but I'm sure you said that just cuz u like the sound of it :)

Oh and I invited all my friends (194) to join. So hopefully if they lap it up like you said, you'll have a lot of fans.

Cheerio said...

and i havent been friended yet? awww... oh wait. just checked. phew.
also, cute shoutout ;)
now i gotta come check out the furniture.

Just like a guy said...

Altie: 20 bucks for a serviceable (or even better) bookcase and couch? Hallelujah!

And thanks a lot-appreciate it I certainly do.

Cheerio: You haven't been. I'm not friending anyone, but I'll accept friend requests (since I don't plan on spending any time on it anyway, who cares?)

Yes, by all means, call my dear wife and arrange a visit.

Yitzchak said...

You really like saying "dear wife" huh? Well, for those of us who haven't caved yet, what is this business?

PS
tzum ershtemol tzum tzveitamol tzum drittemohl Sold to the heretic in the srugi for three nanny goats and one billy.

Altie said...

:) no prob.

Craigs list is cool, the only problem is getting a car to transport the stuff, and guys to do it for you, cuz if not, you don't get it.

sesame chicken? at a lechaim? yum.

Just like a guy said...

Modeh: I does.

Altie: That's where relatives and friends come into the picture.

god?: It wasn't too bad...

Menashe said...

Shaya is intelligent and funny and has semicha! Funny depends on the day of the week though. If it ends in "y" not so much.

Just like a guy said...

Trying to a reference or something?
