You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Huh. Until I read that, I'd never even considered what they did with the foreskin.

the rabbi (or whomever wields the sharpened implements)

The person who does the actual cutting is called a mohel. (Pronounce "moil," approximately.) Generally, he's got rabbinic certification plus was trained by an older mohel; nowadays, a lot of mohels (but not all) are also doctors.

At the bris today, I think the baby's mother and grandmother and great-aunts were crying more than the baby was. (I don't know what the mens reactions were -- it was separate seating.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Is that so the guys all have room to cross their legs as tight as they want?

Hee. The seating is so that the men can see what's going on -- traditionally, it's said that this is because the mother wouldn't be able to handle watching her baby hurt. Although this time, I noticed that a bunch of the elementary- and middle-school aged girls went up to the balcony of the synagogue so that they could see everything clearly from there.
