Aargh, I was here all alone at 9:30 for the chat room. Where was everyone else? Peas Michael

Ron you're always tilting at windmills you have absolutely zero control over. Personally if I wasn't Jewish I wouldn't have my kids circumcised, after all if nature put it there who am I cut it off. I've been to 4 jewish circumcisions. They tend to be big events, w/ lots of relatives. Two at my own home for my two sons. Its very fast, one child cried a little bit, the other didn't cry at all. Both got a few drops of wine into there mouths before the cutting which lasted about 4 seconds. There's a short ceremony, welcome to the tribe etc. a party and every is happy. The notion of Rabbis of giving blow jobs sounded like the usual slander. One its gross, two antiseptic, three duh blood is taboo to jews. So I looked into it. Here's what I found out. There was a practice w/ some basis in the Talmud of Rabbi's 'cleaning' the wound orally. They'd have a mixture of wine and sometimes Cumin in there mouths when they'd do it and would spit out immediately. The practice fell increasingly out of favor in 1900's. Its very rare to see it today except in cases of very eccentic and/or very orthodpx mohels. \ Most Jewish eccentricities have some health benefits. You Have to wash your hands before meals, there are certain times you Have to take bath(mikva), pigs were the trash disposers in medieval time, deliscious but diseased. Most, though not all 'commandments and customs' have some outer value, usually of cleanliness, far ahead of their time. Its a stretch, but maybe wine and cumin have some antispetic properties, before the 19th century maybe a mans mouth was as clean or cleaner then whatever dirt rags they had around. In my internet searchings, I found problems happen in 20 out of 1,000 circumcisions. 18 out of 20 of those being benign, infections that go away. 2 out of 1000 are more serious. On the other hand a reduction in penile cancer(not that it happens very often), more importantly nowadays a probable reduction in veneral disease, and a condition that strikes 7 out of 1000 uncircumcised men that I forget the name of I am now immune too. On the third hand, I do think its a racket and dishonest for any hospital to do a circumsision without the prior knowledge and consent of mother and family. Is it a big deal, not really. On the lists of injustices its pretty far down. Anyway, I'm circumcized, the equiptment seems to work pretty well. Though I've always suspected the female orgasm is more powerful then male. Peas Michael P.S You don't mention if your tool is tailored or not Actually, I don't want to know

Peter I see your online NOW, if you see this Now, go to Live Chat. Peace Michael Its 9:35 my time in Chicago, c central USA

Give us some details, man. Where did you get the colloidal gold from? How much was it? How many ounces do you get? I remember in college there was mint shnapps that had gold flakes in it. At the time, drinking 'gold' was taking Japan by storm. Peace Michael

I've always liked shaking. My Aikido instructor was also big into it. It was pretty similar to what Winn has taught in fundamentals. You start by shaking the wrists vigorously, keep it up til the whole body is rocking, the heels moving of the floor. There is a good feeling after you're done. Peace Michael

Lets get some noise going in the chat room. I'm in Chicago on Central Time. What say we try to get people to hook up at 9:30 Central time every day? We can see how and which days that works for people. Other thoughts? Does that seem too early or late? I'll be on today at 9:30 Central time, 10:30 for Easterners, 7:30? for Westerners, 3:30 for Japan Peace Michael

Since we have this dandy new board, with Live Chat features, lets use it. Whats a good time for people? I'm on central time, Most days after 9:30 work for me. How about Thursday 9:30 central time? Peace Michael

Who am I to blow against the wind. If Sean wants to do the extra work for the Wikki and If Freedom Fighter Pietro likes the idea Why not? IMHO the Healing Tao gave quite a bit of leeway to its users, Sean gives even more If Pietro feels sooo repressed then Freedom for the Pietro His view points and comments will be missed, but its more his loss then ours. Peas Michael

I'd recommend taking a look at some of Daniel's Reids first two books, The Tao of Health Sex and Longevity and his second which slips my mind. He's a Westerner who is immersed in theory and practice. Peace Michael

Neat stuff, my kudos on all the work you've done. Peace Michael

I have M. Winns Sexual Vitality video available. It "..reveals the secrets of how to safely heal and build sexual energy for both medical and spiritual purposes. Over two dozen methods are clearly explained for regualating hte water and fire energies.." I'd be happy to send it out with the following guidelines. No copying (bad karma for us both), keep it for 2 weeks, then either send it back to me or to someone else in this group, if they are interested and will follow the above guidelines. If you like it BUY THE VIDEO from Winn. He's a great teacher. My favorate Winn videos are Fundamentals II (his 5 part form). I like his Pan Gu Chi gung sequence on 8 Extraordinary Vessels, I like his primordial Chi Gung. I would love to get my hands on more of Minke's Silent Ground guided meditation CD's. I've emailed Minke a twice with no reply. They are great. If anyone knows of any source for them I'd be very interested. Peace Michael P.S. HI Guys

Mathew I tried the Mother site you listed. I liked what I heard but have too much resistance to the Guru thing, even one as kindly and benign as Mother. I've kept the link, maybe when the time is right, the mother will be heard. Peace Michael

I'm here, I'm here, quit yellin. Lots of interesting stuff here, but lets not think of it as competition. I do want to try different directions. I'll pick up nattokinase and try Sheepish's 9 bottle breathing for a while. Must detox body and mind, begin a new. Peas Michael

hi all, live chat, communication at the speed of typing neat. Peace Michael
