 | So it says here that Sheloshim is the Jewish period of mourning from the 8th to the 30th day. Sheloshim means thirty. |  |
|
 | Sheloshim? It kind of sounds like the sound of water in the bottom of your boat as you're bailing water out. |  |
|

|
 | Well, anyway, there are some rules for days 8 through 30--you don't cut your hair or shave. Oh, and get this--you're allowed to go to a circumcision, but you can't attend the festivities afterward. |  |
|
 | There are festivities after a circumcision?? Yeah, nothing like a circumcision to stimulate the appetite. But anyway, what happens after the 30 days? |  |
|
|
|
|
|
 | Then you're done mourning, I guess [unless it's your parents, that's a whole 'nother waxy ball]. No....but you've done all you're required to do, I suppose? |  |
|
 | Doesn't it sound like an Infomercial, "Denial to Acceptance in 30 Days...or your money back"? |  |
