Looking for recommendations for caterers.
Is it standard in Lakewood to allow warmers, pots, ladles, spatula, portable stoves at "drop-off" , no mashgiach events?

Definitely warmers. I'm not sure about everything else.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

it's counterintuitive...for dishes that usually less concerning that. Cooking equipment they require a mashgiach but for actual cooking equipment they don't require a mashgiach

Sort of. The warmer comes with instructions not to put anything else in and is then a trust issue. How can you do that for dishes?

So would manually inputting a 30 item music play list. I doubt that would fly. Good luck trying to get a judge to agree to that interpretation. The intent of the language of the statute “initiate a function” is clearly referring to answering, disconnecting, etc. and might not even cover inputting a phone number, much less other smartphone functions not related to the “communications device function.”
Thing is that they would have to prove that you weren't just initiating a function. How can the cop testify to what you were doing on your phone?

He's amazing but I don't think they're taking new patients. Doesn't hurt to try.

Shloimy’s (Sams auto repair) on central and the 9; I found to be the cheapest.
About $125, others are charging $175
