The People's Hero Posted 6 February 2009 Posted 6 February 2009 'Sell your foreskin' is the strangest advice I've heard since 'Shake your tailfeather' - only not set to such a catchy tune. Coincedence? I think not.
Thracian Posted 6 February 2009 Posted 6 February 2009 There was a rabbi once who was appointed to take over at the local synagogue. Before assuming his duties the succeeding rabbi was given a run down on everyday procedures by the retiring rabbi and, as they relaxed afterwards, the latter asked if the new man had any questions. Just one came the reply. "When your conduct the circumcision ceremonies, what do you do with the foreskins?" 'No problem,' the man was told. 'We store them all in a large jar and when the jar is full I take them down to a leather merchant in town who happily makes something useful out of them.' The new rabbi took over. Everything went well and the jar was quickly filled. Remembering the advice he took the skins into town, located the owner of the leather merchant's and was pleased to be told to come back the following week and he was sure to be pleased. A week went by and the rabbi called for his parcel. Opening it he found the foreskins fashioned into a delightfully hand-stitched wallet. Impressed he asked the leather merchant how much he owed him. 'Fifty pounds," the craftsman replied. "Well," said the rabbi, I'm more than grateful. The wallet is quite delightful. But it does seem a little expensive...." Oh, said the merchant, "but what you hold is no ordinary wallet. "When you rub it, it turns into a suitcase."
