cos i'm still at work, and i'm bored...

Having brought this months issue of uncut (a film and music magazine, not one devoted to pre-bah mitzvah jewish boys)

does one normally have one's barmitzvah when they're a week old? or is the magazine about the first 12 years of a jewish male's life?

i think he's referring to the religious ceremony (what it's called, i forgot) during which a jewish baby boy is circumcised. that would NOT be the bar mitzvah, that happens around the age of twelve or thirteen and i think circumcision at that time would be rather painful, though i am a girl and maybe have no right to make such judgments. i do need to go home. now. but i can't just yet. enjoy your mornings/evenings... stasia anastasia signoretta atlantic records international media relations 1290 avenue of the americas 24th floor new york, ny 10104 212.707.2619 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 'but how can i see stars if my feet are on the ground?' ride ------------- Original Text
