From last night's AD&D session:

"The journey of a thousand mohels begins with a single snip." --me

(Context is enormous and will very likely kill us all....)

The mohel (which rhymes with "oil", so "mohels" sounds like "miles" said with a strong accent) is the guy who actually performs the circumcision at a bris. I assume you're familiar with the famous saying "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

And now I'm thinking of Al Franken on SNL.

And here's me, always been told size doesn't matter... :-P

When it gets a +12 size modifier on its grapple check, trust me, it matters quite a lot.

A mohel making a grapple check against someone with a +12 size modifier can only mean one thing: we know the kid's name.

Don't forget that Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100-foot clipper.

I'm really having trouble imaging the D&D game where that could be said in character and make sense...
