Title: Don’t waste even a moment!

Not only should one learn whilst on a journey, one should also use the opportunity to do so whilst waiting in a queue at: a bus stop, a bank, a post office, a medical centre, etc. In all of these places one should be able to find a solution to the tzenius question. There was one well known Jerusalem Rav, who completed the whole of Shas (I believe even twice) whilst waiting in these various queues and on journeys.
