Raphael K, we are of the same era. To those that thought I was in the fiftyish age group, I thank you very much – that was quite some time ago. My next “major” birthday (although I consider them all pretty major since my cardiac arrest) will be when I reach “three score year and ten”. I have been thinking of how some men celebrate the 70th anniversary of their Bar Mitzvah at age 83 by repeating their Haftorah (the second Bar Mitzvah). I think this a lovely idea and certainly a reason to celebrate, but I have been wondering why men don’t do this at age 70, as well.
