Full man, half Rabbi

If you were even half the Rabbi I am, then you'd be a quarter one.

I did very well on my basar bchalav test with R' Labkowski, baruch Hashem.
Now I can turn most of my full attention (Yossi, that doesn't make sense. Why don't you just say, "most of my attention"?) to figuring out who these creeps are, what they have against me and my 'nontznius' blog, and whether or not a wooden stake to the heart will kill them, or if I need silver bullets, as well.

Mazel tov, I have a question:
If a recently used cold fleishig dish is put in a milchig sink on top of dirty milchig dishes, what's the verdict for both sets? Personally I have no problem throwing them from the Empire State Building but my roommates are a bit more hesitant.

Yossi said...

if everything was cold, and it didn't sit there for long, you would probably need to wash everything off, and it would be fine. but make sure not to wash the plate off with hot water! hot water is always a no-no.

Thanks!

Ok, so...what if hot water was run? It seems the perpetrator cannot remember exactly what happened.

yossi, congrats! Which other test have you taken?

Does rabbi Labkowski know that you're paskening unauthorized?

Yossi said...

thanks. i've done melicha. now taruvos and shabbos (cause I've switched to yuroslavski. once I'm done with him, I'll bli neder go back and finish the hosafos labkowski wants me to do.)
I don't think it's considered paskening if it's written clearly in shulchan aruch. even once i had smicha, I still couldn't pasken shalois unless i was a dayan with shimush and everythin. but if it's something clear from the big red book...

e said...

ahhh. So little is clear from the big red book. *shudder at remembering my paskening days"

Yossi said...

for taaruvois we got the hamaor edition, it is clearer than the machon yerushalayim, so now instead of a big red book, it's a really huge blue book

e said...

*bigger shudder*

Yossi said...

well, you know what it's like with guys. we've got to have everything real big. makes us feel manlier. like monster trucks.

Cheerio said...

monster seforim... hehehe
mazel tov! and good luck.

Yossi said...

sara, if you ran hot water over all the dishes, I could still think of lots of reasons to be meikal. but you'd need to ask a rav to do that for you, not me
