A Once-In-A-Lifetime Kosher Catered Trip To Antarctica!

[gingyguy]

P.P.S. I can't afford this but I'm willing to wash dishes one night a week on the trip, does that work?

sorry , but DDMS cant allow you to go on vacation together with dan for so long with no internet access.

[Mordyk]

Good news @jj1000, seems like @Geshmak25 is sponsoring you to come

@jj1000  didn't convince you yet why its essential for him to come along?    or he simply wasn't successful yet?

[ExGingi]

@Dan @Something Fishy Will we be guaranteed to see Polar bears in the south pole?
P.S. What is the cost? And will there be a daf yomi shiur? Will you be printing a tanya on the trip? Will the chef be shomer shabbos?

All fun aside, if indeed you have a way to pack a printer and ink (while I personally hate inkjet printers, toner is not ink, and if printing a book that needs to endure, you want to use ink) you should really consider printing a tanya there.

Already been done.

[Aerial Dag]

What's this printing a tanya all about? what am I missing?
IE why printing and not bringing?

[ExGingi]

Already been done.

Wasn't aware. Which edition number is it?

ETA: I guess it was actually done twice: http://old2.ih.chabad.info/#!g=1&url=article&id=66987

כאשר יהודי ישמע שמדפיסים תניא במקומו; בפרט באם השתתף בזה בממונו או בגופו, הוא יתעניין לדעת מהו הספר וילמד בו ביתר עניין

I guess just talking about on DDF is enough

But if you actually contribute to the printing, then you have a special חביבות to the Tanya that was printed there, and might encourage some learning.

ETA: Just noticed your location, are you located in Antarctica by any chance?  I would presume that's the ultimate MS Desert

One of those things that you are either into it or not.

Why? I heard that some of those guys did a ton of MS down there by loading up their Buxx accounts and cashing out at the WF ATM. It's great when there are no eyes on your account for 10 months straight 

[shaulyaakov]

How long is one allowed to spend outside the ship for it not to "reset" the issue of boarding a ship within 3 days of shabbos?

Also me. I can check with my wife maybe and also wash dishes one of the other nights. Please email me infos asap because I need to arrange carpools for my kids. Ty

That’s a great point. If dan grants access to the soooper seekrit forum with admission I’m sure loads of ppl will sign up

Getting in isn't the hard part. its signing the NDA

[aygart]

That’s a great point. If dan grants access to the soooper seekrit forum with admission I’m sure loads of ppl will sign up

But then the value of going for those who know will have gone down exponentially

Wow!

Couple that with a rare seminar, and this trip might not only pay for itself, but actually yield some handsome dividedends.

-1. If they take the slots they'll prevent more n00bs swarming other people's territories.

I thought he was the mashgiach

hes busy looking for an ashkenas minyan in Antarctica

Some people care about ashkenas minyanim, other people care about printing tanyas in random places. Can't we all get along?

I don't think most people would decide to go or not to go somewhere based on the Nussach of the minyan alone. I've never heard of a Posek insisting on that. I'd be happy to see a source that says differently.

Not to mention that if one is concerned about potential Halachic issue, the lack of a real Tzeis for Motzei Shabbos is probably a more significant Halachic concern than whether the Shat"z will say Hodu before or after Baruch SheAmar.
