Hi, all, yet again!

I just caught one more charming bit of info in the New Mom Magazine that I
missed before sending them a letter. There is a short blurb called
"Circumcision Decision" that basically gives the parents the choice, and
gives info to the effect that the old worries about what not circumcising
might do just don't hold up any more. It ends with this gem:

"If you decide to circumcise, confirm that your insurance covers it. And ask
your doctor what can be done to minimize your son's pain. (Studies suggest a
sugar-coated pacifier helps.)

AAAAAGGGGGGHHHHH! How about "studies suggest a breast milk coated breast
helps"!

I have yet to read an article in this thing that doesn't have at least one
zinger in it.
