The Right Prognosis?

The doctor said, "Joe, 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."

Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for.


He had no choice but to go under the knife.

When he left the hospital, 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 and thought, "That's what I need... a new suit." He
entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit."


The elderly tailor eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see... size 44 long."

Joe laughed, "That's right, how did you know?"

"Been in the business 60 years!" the tailor said. Joe triedon the
suit.. it fit perfectly. As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the
salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?" Joe thought for a moment and
then said,

"Sure."

The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeves and 16-1/2
neck." Joe was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?"

"Been in the business 60 years. Joe tried on the shirt and it fit
perfectly. Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman
asked, "How about some new underwear?"

Joe thought for a moment and said, "Sure." The salesman said, "Let's
see... size 36." Joe laughed, "Ah ha! I got you, I've worn a size 34
since I was 18 years>old."

The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34! A size 34
would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give
you one hell of a headache."

New suit - £400 >New shirt - £36 >New underwear - £6 >
