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.

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.
