            Oh piffle.  You boys don't know what it means to

            have religious justification.  When *I* slam my dickhead

            in a drawer, I am doing it to fulfill my covenant with

            the Lord.  When *I* pound the naked scarrified mass of
            cells at the crown of my penis with a hammer,

            I am doing it in the name of the God of

            Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.


            "Barchu baruch Shmo" I say, when I behold the

            mutilated stump of the dick that once was.  "Baruch

            atah adonai elohenu melech haolam shelo asani
            goy" I shout to the hills, and, of course, the

            ever-subtextual "shelo asani esha".
