see lekutei sichos vol. 21, parshas beshalach 2nd sicha.
When I come across one, iy''h.
Not necessarily, fruits and vegetables are enough.
There is, and if I would have been by a computer I probably wouldn't mind typing it up, but as mentioned, I'm pretty sure it's been discussed here already.
I'll look around.
ETA: I searched this thread and all I found was this.
Also, are all/most Chabadnikim as proficient in the writings as the ones around here?

Let's say that I don't mind being chabad in the winter.

Btw, I never got a response to my application to become one year chabad.

I don't have a SSN, is that it?

Not sure what you mean by "makpid", if there are chickens and a shochet around then we try to use chickens.

Sorry. Makpid is the wrong word.
I meant to ask if all of Chabad use chickens.

The singalong by ovinu malkeinu on a regular weekday mincha is a little awkward.

Maybe it's because in Lakewood 98.4% of the minyan are not chabad...

That.
Any niggun/song that people aren't into will sound awkward. 
Like the chazzen who goes up there and sings a song during kedusha that nobody knows...

Where I daven we sing the 13 middos every single time we say them 5 or six times during slichos.  It is strange at first but you get used it and then you miss it when you don't have it.

Biggest advantage of that is that because they're going slower, you can say them slowly, pausing to remember the expanded peirush hamilim and have the appropriate kavana. Most places zoom through, except on Yom Kippur itself.
