Connecting the Queens Jewish Community 
The X-Files
Dear Editor:
So, Fox Mulder has been proven correct. Those of you readers who are unfamiliar with his name obviously never watched “The X-Files” in the 1990s and early 2000s. I, however, have every line of all 11 seasons memorized (a totally useless thing)
Dear Editor:
I am writing with regard to Mrs. Susie Garber’s well-written article titled “Leadership Changes at Vaad Harabonim of Queens.” I personally have had occasion to call Rabbi Chaim Schwartz of the VHQ with various kashrus questions. I would like to thank him for his guidance for myself and the community over the years. I would like to express hakaras ha’tov as well to the other rabbanim who were mentioned in the article: Rabbi Herschel Welcher, Rabbi Marty Katz, and Rabbi Daniel Haramati, as well as all of the rabbanim who have selflessly given their time and efforts over the years to ensure that the community has the highest standards of kashrus.
Dear Editor:
Queens Jewish Link readers can help press Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to urge Judge Gregory Carro to give would-be synagogue attacker Matthew Mahrer an appropriate sentence.
Jobs For Kamala
Dear Editor:
Good news, Kamala! There’s no need to get in touch with Indeed, because your trusty letter writer is here to help. There are those who would like to get rid of Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and replace her with you. What about ousting President Biden before the inauguration and making you interim President? Perhaps you can become a commentator on MSNBC or become an Op-Ed writer for The New York Times. (Wait a minute; I want that job.)
Freaky Friday
Dear Editor:
Here it is, Friday, November 29, and I’m sitting at my breakfast table drinking coffee, eating my doughnut and $6.2-million banana, and writing this article. What? You’re all wondering why I’m not lining up in front of _____(Name the store) on Black Friday. I should be contributing to the US economy and purchasing items I don’t need but that are on sale.
Update
Dear Editor:
Last week, I saw that the letter that I sent to you for the prior week was published. I originally wrote it before the pre-election issue and before the poles I mentioned were installed on Main Street. As we know, the QJL sometimes holds off on letters due to the high volume they receive and the need to be selective with each issue.
