[Avodah] Lashes on E.Y.

[Cantor Wolberg]

Has anyone ever heard of the minhag (stated in S.A.) to receive Malkus  
(39) on E.Y. in order to expedite the Teshuva process?
It's more of a symbolic gesture rather than painful lashes.
However, for heavy handed people, I think there should be an option to  
give 39 dollars instead.  (Although, for some, that might
be more painful).  :-)

G'mar chatima tova.
