Tweet of the Day
this is actually from about 1788... not the tweet itself but the content of the tweet.. and today's tweet is actually a reminder of a tweet from last year... so here goes...
When the founding fathers pushed off a July 4 celebration bc it fell out on 17 Tamuz, a Jewish day of mourning, and they wanted Jews to be able to participate. ❤️ https://t.co/XttdCL2gtb

Rav Pam's patriotic July 4th
I saw this story online, and being that today is July 4th, I felt it was appropriate to post..
Rav Pam z'tl every year would put out a flag on July 4th. One year in his older years, his granddaughter from out of town had a date on July 4th out of Rav Pam's house, she asked her grandmother " if zeidy could not put out the flag this year since she found it not to be the "yeshivish" thing to do and she was embarrassed if the boy would see it."
Her grandmother said, "Don't worry, Zeidy is weak today he doesn't have the strength to put it out today." So when the boy rang the bell there was no flag up.
Rav Pam answered the door and he said to the boy, "Excuse me, would you mind helping me put out the flag for July 4th? I'm too weak to do it myself."
And rav Pam together with the boy put out the flag like he did every year to show his hakaros hatov.

How I almost blew myself up once
This post has been inspired by Jacob Da Jew's post on the topic.
I remember we used to buy all these illegal fireworks. One year my brother and I bought a few things and it included, for the first time ever, a quarter stick of dynamite.
We went to the park during the night, so it was pretty empty. The park is a big one with a few large residential buildings of condominiums on the other end.
We found an empty garbage can, one of those metal circular types. We were pretty nervous about this dynamite, not knowing what it could do. We lit it and threw it in the can.
After a few moments nothing happened. Of course, as kids do, we did what nobody should ever do. We went to look at why it did not go off. We stick our heads into the can. Sure enough the fuse was still burning and was nearing the end.
We ran, but we were still pretty close to the can when it finally went off. I remember being lifted into the air and being thrown to the side with all the wind being knocked out of me. It looked to us like the building at the other side of the park were shaking, but that, thinking back, was probably just a kids imagination after the excitement and shock.
We picked ourselves up and drove off as fast as we could!! We were afraid we would be in so much trouble!
I wonder if any of my brothers remember that one...and if they remember the story the same way as I do..
