And the slogan for that Mohel shop displaying the watches could be:

 Tick, tock, time to chop the top

Give them to a Mohel to put in his shop window... What do you expect him to
display there?

Cheers,

Can anyone suggest a use for all these wristwatches?

  My sock drawer isn't nearly as organized as yours though!  A couple pair
of black socks somewhere on the bottom (haven't been seen in a looong time),
amongst a pile of white socks.

Its starting to sound like active "info sharing" security geeks are 
all cut from the same mold.

I bought twelve pair of identical black socks a couple years ago for 
the same reason -- I just randomly grabbed socks (in the dark) out of 
my drawer and figured that whatever came out was close enough if they 
were the same shade as observed by the red LED of the alarm clock.  
(Back then I got up at 4:30 and wife not until 6:00.  Now we both get 
up at 5:00 and I turn the light on.  And I have three colors now.  
White on the far left, black on the far right, and tan in the middle, 
lined up perpendicular to the others.

And I have somewhere around twelve watches, because people keep 
observing that I don't wear a watch, determining that I must therefore 
need one, and using it for the next gift giving occasion.  I remove 
the battery, and stick it in the drawer with all the others.  (A 
couple of them are REALLY nice watches!  Maybe someday my 
grandchildren will enjoy
them.)
