Here I thought that I'd have time to write a nice long post today . . .
Next time!
The Episode stars Mottel (Uh . . . That's me), Yoni (The infamous Son of the Orange Yin Yan Yuju) and The Angry Dutch Man (Better known in these parts as The Flying Dutch Jew)

This Weeks Yin Yan Yuju . . .
ORANGE
This one happens to be one of my favorites -despite the problems with the blurred photography.
The message I hope is clear -passion is good. Obsession is bad.

This Week's Yin-Yan-Yuju is:
The Intro.
(You have to start from somewhere)
These two should have been put as one . . .
Enjoy.

This is my least favorite of the Yin Yin Yuju videos we made and sadly one of the last as well.
Note the book in their hands.

I would like to say goodbye to my blogging friend Akiva of Minor Fast Days on his retiring from the Blogosphere for some of the better things in life . . . I wish him the best.
As well this month drew in more hits then any other, due in part to two very linked to posts . . .
The Kapote Conundrum
and
The Missing Descendant of the Alter Rebbe
Thanks for the publicity A Simple Jew and Tzemach
As well, I've moved up the weekly installment of Yin Yan Yuju to Tuedays -in part to make a bigger gap between it and the Weekly picture, in part in honor of YMA's birthday (He's the actor of this week's clip), and in part because I don't have enough time left to work on a longer post . . .
Kalos Hanefesh . . .
The power of prayer
He screams "Atzmus" at the end . . .
Do you enjoy the videos?

It took three thousand years! But, the truth is out! And now you can read it to your children, as well! And it’s spreading fast!The powerful king is not so unstoppable. And the seemingly incapable man is actually a king!What we’re speaking about are the two kings each of us has inside. The Bad King, is our selfish impulsive side, the yetzer hara. The Good King is our rationale, good side, the yetzer tov.But we all know that. Right?It’s not so simple. It took Rabbi Fishel Jacobs seven best-selling books in halacha, and four years developing this latest book series for it to finally reach press.Two Kings is here and available now!Two Kings is the newest educational revolution. It is being launched by Israel Book Shop a world’s leading Jewish publisher and distributor based in Lakewood, N.J. And authored by Rabbi Fishel Jacobs a well-known Chabad rabbi and author.The Jewish book series features a young boy who is faced with a personal dilemma in performing something he needs to do. The Bad King and Good King, both depicted through heart-warming and beautiful colored pictures, each try to influence the lad. Tensions rise as they both seem to gain the upper hand.The concept is based in Keholet (9:14). The idea that the body is compared to a small city, over which two internal kings -- the yetzer tov and the yetzer hara -- fight to gain control forms the central theme of Tanya (Chapter 9)
Often the problems with we must confront are just under our noses . . . we need only recognize them.

I forgot to put up yesterday's video . . .
The point should be clear.

In life there are two paths that can be taken -the long short path and the short long path . . .

Today's post was meant to feature the regularly scheduled Yin Yan Yuju video . . .
However yesterday's events at Virginia Tech eclipse all else . . .
How can there be laughter when there are tears?
(Hat Tip)
Unfortunately, words escape me at this time . . . once again I am faced with concepts so large, so all encompassing, that they can not -at least in my realm- be brought down in the world of speech . . . Thoughts with out letters.
Perhaps, however, this inability to express the true nature of the situation in words is in fact fortuitous . . . for who am I to try to explain what happened.
We must demand from G-d that enough is enough, we must pray, we must unite.
But words?
There are none.

Yoni A Go Go!
Friendship is a very interesting thing . . .
There are life friends . . . Proverbial friends . . . Friends who one recognizes in a moment. There's an instant bond and through thick and through thin, their friendship stays. A year apart on opposites sides of the world doesn't dim this friendship. Come Tishrei or Yud Shvat in 770 and we're back to good times again.
There are undeveloped friends . . . Those people who one would like to know, who seem like great guys . . . but some how a lasting meaningful relationship doesn't get a chance to be built. True when we meet again we'll speak, even for a while. Had I been asked about him I would respond,
"Oh X? He's a great guy!"
But somehow there's a strangeness to it it all.
There are friends who, while being close . . . somehow grow apart when the year or summer ends . . .
True we still think kindly of each other, speak when we see each other . . . but some how it just isn't the same.

Dance Dance Yoni 12!
In connection to the recent (and in truth, entire) theme of Tanya . . .
A Beinoni (The average person) must struggle with the callings of the Yetzer Horah (Evil Inclination) and Yetzer Tov (Good Inclination) as they wage war over the microcosm -control of ones body.
Therefore, our hero Yoni must confront his animal soul in order to get up for class -despite having been up the entire night before at a Farbrengen.
