Kosher Koogle it here
 
koogle
This Koogle is definitely not Kosher
 
What to do you if you are a devoutly religious ultra-Orthodox Jew, one of 800,000 or so in Israel and Rabbinic laws have forbidden you from surfing the great satan internet? How are you going to buy that new Tallit from Lands End Talit.com? Fortunately, the Rabbis came up with a  gem of an idea.   Meet Kosher Google Koogle.   It is a search engine intended to allow those who have until now, not been able to search on that Goyism web based crawler thing called Google.   Kosher Koogle has safeguards in place to maintain the hearty religous aspect necessary for very ultra-Othorodox Jews to use the internet safely and maintain adherence to their religious laws.
Koogle will not allow you to venture to places where one can look at women in immodest attire.   You can't purchase items that are verboten.  Koogle will not allow you to buy anything on the Sabbath.  It just won't work.   Kind of like having an itty- bitty little Rabbi on your shoulder at all times.  That shouldn't scare anyone at all.
The expanded site is entirely in Hebrew for the sake of those who use the language readily.   Kosher Koogle has lots of news, weather and advertisments.  How do I know this?   Hey, I can read pictures.
But beware.  The advertisements will not include anything that is forbidden in a true believer's home, like televisions, or um, computers.  However, Koogle is big on travel, keen on cameras, cars, and the tallit.   I am assuming I can order some great corned beef too.
So this begs the question.  Where are these truly utra-Orthodox Jews using these forbidden computers if they are not allowed to own one?

They're searching for Susan Moyle.... (rim shot). This is hysterical!
Cart - now that was funny! Susan Moyle. hehehehe.
so, can they point me to the closest purveyor of kugel?
BWAH@cartouche!

I can't beat that, so I'll just say, great post L&P! :)

The cover needs a special little box called Lulu & Phoebe's Totally Weird News!

OMG...or would that be...OY! I thought this was a great joke you'd made up until I clicked on the link.
ardee - of course they can!

Ann - Thanks Ann. I do love the news of the weird. Beats looking at the 401.

Silk - I went surfing on Koogle. I can buy an orange kitchen Aid mixer! How cool is that? Of course it is totally male-centric and women in the kitchen in modest clothing.... But I bet I could find some great kugel.
Susan Moyle? what a cutting remark.
I enjoy it very much!
My mother told me to use it. . . . .

GREAT piece L and P!
bobbet - hehehehe. funny!

steve - it is, isn't it? my favorite part is the English version. About 1/16 of the real web site.

RickyB - yep!

Gary - nice to see you! thanks.

Roger - pretty much! And thank you.
Dan Quayle searched there for potatoe.
Cartouche, that one liner made my day!

I thought this was a joke, but as the saying goes, truth is stranger than fiction.

Oy Vey!
Dahlink, this is hilarious! But frum Jews can use computers and the Internet... what, you thought aish.com or torah.org used Shabbos IT's?
All I can think of is Katz's delicatessen, "send a salami to your boy in the army."

Rated.
Oy.
