6. Technically, the "prepuce."
More commonly called the foreskin.

33. Good.
Edited on Fri Jan-14-11 07:35 PM by silverweb
Now, since I don't routinely watch the news and C-SPAN, why is it suddenly being mentioned there so much?

On Edit: Okay, I get it now. The new RNC guy is off to a really colorful start. I almost feel sorry for him! LOL

8. Depends on whether the knife slips.
Foreskin or manhood, depending on the carving.

Watch out for the nuts, too.

I keep it in a jar, in a safe, so if my body is destroyed in a fire, they can use "Timmy" to clone me.

27. Old National Lampoon cartoon from the 70's...
I wish I could find it.

A pack of cats is sitting in an alleyway next to some garbage cans.

There's a set of stairs leading to a door at the top that all the cat's are gazing at as if waiting for something.

On the door there's a sign that reads "Jacob Rothstein (or something like that), Mohel.

20. I believe the word you are looking for is schmuck
It's the yiddish word for foreskin and any kind of detestable and totally useless person.

21. My Jewish
friends when I was growing up in Miami always used to refer to it as the "schmuck." Whence the epithet, I should imagine ....

I am not Jewish, and I have no idea if this is accurate. It is just what I was told, on several occasions.

28. I haven't watched either C-Span or the news today -- is this today's hot topic?
If so, I hope it will be discussed at length on Meet the Press this weekend.

29. Discussion of circumcision with the phrase "driving me nuts" ...

"Argh! That's driving me nuts!"

46. the part that makes it really good!
As a female, I can say the foreskin makes a huge difference in the feel. It's far better than the helmet heads.

I think removal is barbaric too and tragic. In my case, it means that an anti-sex decision made in 1946 by two people I never knew, seriously affects my sex life with DH. I don't think DH knows what he is missing. I know what I'm missing from the female side of the experience.
