Old news, but dramatic nonetheless:

The International Medical News Group is reporting that circumcision rates for newborn boys in the United States dropped "steadily and markedly" over the past 4 years, based on the largest review of U.S. rates ever done.

According to the review, reported by Dr. Charbel El Bcheraoui at the 18th International AIDS Conference, circumcision rates fell from 56% in 2006 to 33% in 2009.

"steadily and markedly"

So I have dropped 33% since I got the circumcision? Steadily?

Yea, I can see the point here.

I am nearing 50 and I am learning that I am dropping points (And pants) on pretty much everything.

30 years ago, I would have been worried about this. Now I go to bed, right after "Jeopardy", to sleep.

Growing "Old" is not what it is cracked up to be. Still waiting for the "Wise" thing to kick in.

Nite, nite.

Lots of us are waiting for your wise to kick in. Not sure if I can last that long.
