Successful Messiah, everyone here at FM, on various threads, has been extending sincere unqualified good wishes to everyone else.
You are the only person to use the occasion for an insult at someone. It says something about you that I'd rather not be thinking on erev Rosh Hashanah.
Posted by: WoolSilkCotton | September 18, 2009 at 12:42 PM
All the best to everyone on this blog, for a meaningful Rosh Hashanah and for my hope, that the coming year, will be one where we can all address the various issues brought up here with mutual respect, in spite of differences of opinion.

A happy new year to all!

Once again, Shanah tovah to all.

To the tune of "Auld Lang Syne:"
Should slighted acquaintances be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should slighted acquaintances be forgot,
And no mechila time?
Chorus:
For it's mechila time, quite near,
For it's mechila time.
We'll wish you Shanah tovah yet,
Soon it's mechila time.

Let's hope the Chareidim give Shmarya less material.
Posted by: Red Sox Fan | September 18, 2009 at 04:34 PM
happy new year! my prayer is for peace, of course!
Posted by: just me | September 19, 2009 at 12:21 AM
My apologies for being late, but this is always a hectic time of the year.
I would like to wish Shmarya and all the other regulars whose postings also make this site such great site to visit, a wonderful Shana Tova and well over the fast.

May this year bring all good things to all my friends on FM. Shmarya, may the rising of the sun each morning supply you with rejuvenated afflatus to your mission of bringing light to the obsidian recesses of the orthodox world. And may the partisan antagonisms among our disparate groups within Judaism cease and may we be able to love each other as one people and in the manner G-d intended.
