And Now for Some Good News

While we're still recovering from the shock of last week's attacks, life must move forward. Just as at a wedding we smash the glass to remember that, even in our greatest moments of joy there is still an incompleteness to life without the Beit Hamikdash, so too in times of sadness we have to remember that Hashem is always with us, and we always have reason for simcha (joy)

So I'm pleased to announce the engagement of my good friend A. to his kallah, C!

There goes another one!

Yup, we go waaay back to the old country, A. and me, and I can't think of someone who deserves a simcha more.

They were actually introduced through one of our other students, Avi, who is the Kallah's brother-in-law.

Avi, A.'s new brother-in-law.

Meanwhile, most of the guys haven't seen real food in a while, so they stock up while it's available.

A. and brother, J. Some of you may remember my post on J's wedding.

Divrei Torah, speeches, congratulations, and eating continue. Meanwhile I practice my German on Lars.

Dancing about, tzitzit flying.

A big mazal tov! Until 120!
