2. How DO people

have any appetite after the bris ceremony?

15. My eight day old son grabbed a nipple and sucked and sucked...

Maybe I'll ask him now.

It's only been 36 years. Perhaps he'll remember! :sarcasm:

In peace,

3. I attended my first bris in Beverly Hills in the early 1990s

it was for the son of a guy I worked with. He knew my hubby was Jewish and considered it quite an honor to be invited. For some reason, my hubby didn't attend. I did, but I stayed far away from the actual ceremony. Unfortunately, I didn't have that option at my nephew's bris a few years later. Luckily, I am now at an age where I won't be invited to any more for a while - we're in the bas and bat mitzvah stage these days.

6. Same here (as far as ages go). My son's is in 3 weeks...

:-) I think I'll enjoy this mile stone a lot more. :rofl:

4. Us Christians don't get a party for circumcision.

The hospital performed the service. A quick snip and it was gone. No party, no guests, no covenant between God and myself. I deserved better!

[EstimatedProphet]

5. It would be more fun if we did.

[trof]

21. Damn right! I think I'll have one anyway.

My circumcision happened 64 years ago.
You've just given me an excellent excuse for a party.

[xmas74]

10. I've heard that some now choose to have it perfomed at home.

[flamingyouth]

11. I say it's never too late for a party.

How does, say, Feb. 12 work for you? :D

[EstimatedProphet]

12. Sounds good to me

You're buying first round, since I was circumsized.

[Fenris]

20. Penis party!

[CanuckAmok]

18. and no tip!

[Left Is Write]

8. I have never attended a bris.

[Radio_Lady]

16. Well, your penance is reading a lot of "foreskin" jokes. I can't recall

any of them this evening, but just type in "JEWISH JOKES ABOUT FORESKINS" in Google, and I'm sure you'll hit paydirt.

Let's go....

From one of the most psychedelic websites I've ever seen. You will never see color used this way again (gag):

Taxman VS The Rabbi.
A bright, young, fresh-out-of-school auditor just joined the US Tax office, excited to begin tracking down high-powered offenders - such as the Enron or WorldCom guys. Anxious for his first high-powered audit, he was a bit dismayed when his assignment was to audit a Rabbi. Looking over the books and taxes were pretty straight forward, so he thought he'd make his day interesting by having a little fun with the Rabbi.

"Rabbi," he said, "I noticed that you buy a lot of candles." "Yes," answered the Rabbi. "Well, Rabbi, what do you do with the candle drippings?" he asked. "A good question," noted the Rabbi. "We actually save them up and when we have enough, we send them back to the candle maker. And every now and then, they send us a free box of candles."

"Oh," replied the auditor somewhat disappointed that his unusual question actually had a practical answer!
So he thought he'd go on, in his obnoxious way..."Rabbi, what about all these matzo purchases? What do you do with the crumbs from the matzo?" "Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi calmly, "we actually collect up all the crumbs from the matzo and when we have enough, we send them in a box back to the manufacturer and every now and then, they send a box of matzo balls."

"Oh," replied the auditor, thinking hard how to fluster the Rabbi. "Well, Rabbi," he went on, "what do you do with all the foreskins from the circumcisions?"

"Yes, here too, we do not waste," answered the Rabbi. "What we do is saveup all the foreskins, and when we have enough we actually send them to the Tax Office."

"The Tax Office?" questioned the auditor in disbelief. "Ahh, yes," replied the Rabbi, "The Tax Office ...and about once a year, they send us a little prick like you."
