RNS, considering you were born and bred where I am in England, you almost never come here-why not?Is there not enough demand?
ReplyDeleteI've tried several times to arrange speaking engagements in England, and it's never worked out. Hopefully one day I'll be able to make it to London, but it doesn't look like I'll be returning to Manchester.
ReplyDeleteCan one assume Gateshead's a no no too?
ReplyDeletevery funny!
ReplyDeleteWhy would you want to go back to Manchester anyway? To visit the rain?
ReplyDeletei think u meant aug 6 in beverly
ReplyDeleteHi Rav, you note that you will be attending Young Israel of North Beverly Hills for Shabbos. Are you also planning on speaking at the shul? I did not see a topic listed. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteLive fearlessly-davka go to Manchester for the sake of those Jews who do want to hear you there. If riots erupt, so be it.
ReplyDeleteAre you also planning on speaking at the shul?
ReplyDeleteOf course, that's the whole point! Shabbos morning drasha, and afternoon lecture on brain death; I think it's at 710 N. Alpine Drive.
Doesn't a Shabbos morning drasha usually conclude with brain death anyway? :-)
ReplyDeleteHi, What is the schedule for the Young Israel of Holliswood (Queens NY)? I live about 45 minute walk from there, I would like to know besides the mourning lecture what time will the afternoon lecture be at? Also what's the rest of the schedule?
ReplyDeleteIt turns out that iy"h I will be in Jamaica Estates this coming Shabbat. Do you have a more detailed schedule of when you'll be speaking at the Young Israel? Thanks!
