Poet, guess you've never been to a Bris? I'll have to find Auntie Yenta's "Rules for Jewish Living". The first one is, "Never sit in the front row at a Bris."
You have, unfortunately <g, reminded me of another story, about a Moil (the Rabbi who performs the ritual circumcision at the ceremony known as a "Bris") who was very concerned about liability. He asked his insurance agent about malpractice insurance. "Insurance for a Moil?", questioned the agent, "Never heard of it, but let me check." A few days later the insurance man calls the Moil and says, "I've got good news and bad news." "So, let's hear the good news first", the Moil says. The agent answers, "The good news is that I can get you a $1,000,000 liability policy. The bad news is there is a one-inch deductible."
Hope this helps with your visualizations. <vbg AK
