Hashgocho
Last night we did some parsha. I started to exaplain to David that there are special signs to determine if an animal is kosher. "Why can't you just look for the hashgocho?" he asked.
he's absolutely right:) the signs don't mean much anymore, if we were to find a new animal with all the right signs, it would probably not be deemed kosher.

Hashgocho?! where did he learn havarah ashkenazit.
PRAMATICIAN:
i don't know anything about animals, but surely over the centuries previously unknown animals with kosher signs have been discovered? no?
certainly so with birds.
MDJ:
don't blow my cover!
(and don't you mean ashkenazis?)
Then I would also mean havoroh, too, wouldn't I.
