today at the bracha....

In case u havent figured it out yet, or bracha hasnt told u what a bracha is, in SA, a bracha is a kiddush. After davening, everyone goes to the bracha...etc.
so today at the bracha, after heshel had his weekly fill of popcorn and watermelon, he started roaming around, chasing some birds that flew in (normal occurance) and finding entertainement... well, before i knew it, he was across the large room, and started pulling the mechitza away!!!! in the middle of the rabbis speech!!! first he just moved it a few inches, but before we knew what was happening, he has shlepped it outside!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
i was laughing SO hard, i ran out of the room and saw thru the windows how all 200 ppl were laughing and pointing at him(but no one stopped him). so i'm outside by now and i see heshel just keep on going till the whole 6-foot peice was outside!!!!
it was quite a site!!

ppl told me after how good it was to laugh and how it was so cute, etc.

the shul/school is all on one big campus, a maze of corridors and buildings and courtyards...so after shul u take a short walk to the kiddush, i mean bracha, room, which has a few sets of double doors leading to outside.
so heshel shlepped one of hte mechitzas out, i was across the room and didnt wanna make a commotion, i was sure someone at the tables within arms reach would just stop him, but they didnt. and moshe saw it moving but didnt see who the mover was. i was partly horrified but laughing hysterically at the same time.
(i think only in SA no one would stop him, and leave the mechitza as is for 20 minutes till finally s/o brought it back in...!)
