The doctor said, "Jim, the good news is I can cure your headaches the
bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition,
which causes your testicles to press on your spine, and the pressure creates
one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the
testicles."
Jim was shocked & depressed. Wondering if he had anything to live for. He
couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but decided he had no choice
but to go under the knife. When he left the hosp. he was without a headache
for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part
of himself.
As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person.
He could make a new beginning and live a new life. He saw a men's clothing
store & thought, "That's what I need, a new suit." He entered the shop & told
the salesman, "I'd like a new suit."The elderly tailor eyed him briefly and said, "Let'
see...size 44 long." Jim laughed, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the
business 60 yrs." Jim tried on the suit. It fit perfectly. As Jim admired himself in the
mirror,the salesman asked, "How bout a new shirt?" Jim thought for a moment and
then said, "Sure." The salesman eyed Jim and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeve and 16-1/2
neck." Jim was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business
60 yrs." Jim tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly.
As Jim adjusted the collar in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about new shoes?"
Jim was on a roll & said, "Sure." The salesman eyed Jim's feet and said, "Let's see...
9-1/2E.." Jim was astonished, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business
60 years!" Jim tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly! Jim walked comfortably around
the shop and the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?" Jim thought for
a second and said, "Sure." The salesman stepped back, eyed Jim's waist and said,
"Let's see ... size 36."
Jim laughed "Ah ha! I got you! I've worn size 32 since I was 18 years old" The salesman
shook his head, "You can't wear a size 32. A 32 underwear would press your testicles up
against the base of your spine & give you one hell of a headache."
