Meditating on what?

LOLOL! That's what I was wondering about. :)

I'm sure the staff of the Junior Senator from the State of New York were asked by their boss to fax a copy of this to her signifigant other at their domicile in New York with a note that said 'I thought you might want to make note of this clipping'.

Okay... just a question. Maybe this is a bit too... bold? But...

*ahem* I'm no medical expert... So pardon me if this is a stupid question.

But, shouldn't he cut off, well, all the rest? :) Otherwise, he might still have the urge but no way to satisfy it??

I'm a woman and high school biology was a long time ago, so..?

[sirchtruth]

...saying he had renounced all earthly cares,...

I think ole little Buddah forgot about the other function the appendage performs!
That's a worldly function too, ya know, I'm sure Buddah is keen on a renunciation
of all bodily functions to reach enlightenment!
