Say what?

You're being unusually oblique here.

Not really, Aswad.  About average, I'd say.

I once met a man who had only three quarters
of his head left, terrific brain damage and only
one eye, one leg and one arm. He will have to
live like that for the rest of his life.

It is without doubt that the ones who died
are the lucky ones.

he is obliquely referencing the mohel in his usual innocuously unfounded genetic physicist sort of way, thingie, dealio that he does, without appearing derailingly off topic and.......( fill in the foreskin)............

Did you ask him if he thought that was true? If so why didn't he kill himself?




Ningiszhida -> RE: The real cost of war (2/14/2012 4:01:09 PM)

He couldn't speak, his brain damage was such.
Nor could he move, so suicide was not an option
for him and Assisted Suicide is a crime in the UK.

I got the usual bits.

I just didn't see sidebands, and the presentation was off.

For all the filled-in foreskins, he has occasionally flown some interesting circles.

Just a pity that bit seems to have become an obsession on his part. Granted, it's an extremely problematic thing that the practice is tolerated in the absence of a decent ethical resolution. But it's also very far down the list as regards consequences and pragmatic concerns. One would imagine he could make more useful headway in other fields by drawing on what capacity has been shown to exist (though with a decreasing frequency).

As a funny sidenote, docs here aren't legally allowed to decline to perform the MGM procedure, but it's still a rather rare thing to see a cut one around these parts (we don't have enough local jewish influence to make it normative). One wonders when they'll let the same docs opt in to perform FGM on adults who give informed consent. Perhaps he should come here and campaign a bit in the office of the ministress of health, hehe...

Well, I'm off to snip some more foreskins here. They make great elastic bands for flinging marbles at random passerby. As is abundantly clear, I am short a few marbles already, so losig some more... what the heck. ;-)

Health,
al-Aswad.

Maybe his damage was of such an extent that he wasn't able.
