Interesting that none of the earlier chabad rebbes seemed to go with the taanug ruchni svara.
Also not sure if the quote "taanug ruchni" is mentioned anywhere in chabad texts. Afaik it's just a lack of tzar

@imayid2 I think you'll hear an answer to your question if you watch the Kinus tonight. (Not that you'll take it as an answer, like I've said, we're speaking different languages, but nonetheless...)

Question for the AALA thread. Is it his invention to call "St.", Simcha or is this a thing? I like that idea.

ETA: I should really watch the whole thing, even watching a few minutes of this is awe-inspiring.

It's a thing not to spell out the S. (Including when speaking). The "Simcha" is not his invention, but is unique to Simcha Monica.

Thanks. I could imagine that. I always have an issue with this. I wonder what other creative solutions there are out there for this. (Sockmer is a famous one).

Can we hear more details how this one got Simcha to it?

Of some sort, yes.

I'm sure if you donate a Sefer Torah you can get in. Probably even with a smaller donation.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

No, anyone can come as a guest of any Shliach.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

That's why it takes 2 ;)

The wives go in Shvat which is also known as eat before going to the Rabbi's for dinner shabbos.

Iinm it's his (father's) invention. It popped into his mind as he was standing in front of the Rebbe.

Using this thread as a "Random Posts for Lubavitchers" thread.

...That's a question the Rebbe asked my grandfather in his first yechidus with him. Video here: https://www.chabad.org/therebbe/livingtorah/player_cdo/aid/1248289/jewish/When-G-d-Sends-a-Curveball.htm

Just found out that this yechidus was on Yud Daled Kislev. Which for me makes it ...אי לאו האי יומא דקא גרים. Truly  דער טאג וואס מ'האט מיר פארבונדן מיט אייך און אייך מיט מיר
