[QUOTE=Scuba\_Ben] That’s what the _Mohel_ (Hebrew) /_Moyl_ (Yiddish) is for (post #16). [/QUOTE] Where’s the Jewish smiley when I need it to pair with this one? ----\> :smack: ---

I really tried to avoid posting to this thread but I can’t help myself. It should be SACK of dicks. I feel better now. ---

[QUOTE=Zebra] Are you sure it was the History Channel? I don’t see any mention of Nazis. [/QUOTE] That was the _old_ history channel, where they went heavy on the free Nazi stock footage but at least it _was_ history. I never thought I’d miss The Hitler Channel days, but now it’s mostly “DID NOSTRADAMUS PREDICT THE ROSWELL CRASH WOULD KILL THE LAST DESCENDANT OF CHRIST AND MARY MAGDALENE?” nonsense or Ice Truckers (where they no longer even pretend to be historiented). About the only shows on there I still like watching are _Wild West Tech_ (they’ve done one-shot spin-offs like _Bible Tech_ and _Civil War Tech_ but need to do more) and _Cities of the Underworld_. ---

[QUOTE=Scuba\_Ben] That depends on having both (aleph) proper Rabbinical supervision and (bet) coarse salt. [/QUOTE] Coarse salt just doesn’t go with circumcision. I don’t have that particular part and it’s stinging. Robin ---

[/QUOTE] Nostradamus clearly predicted the rave: _At the hour of the middle Children dance at the graves Water will be sorely missed The drums will beat and the peacemakers employed._ - Century XXI Obviously, “graves” can be interpreted as “raves” by removing one letter and the drum beats refer to house music. People on X need to drink water and peacemaker is another word for pacifier. It’s all there if you look for it!!! 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/history-channel-eat-a-bag-of-dicks-for-shilling-scientology/437422.md?page=1)
