Always get a second opinnion

The Doctor said: "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 up against the base of your spine and the pressure creates one hell of a headache.

The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles." Frank was shocked and depressed. He wondered 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 hospital, he was headache free for the first time in over

20 years, but he felt as if he was missing an important part of himself.

As he walked down the street he realised 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."

The elderly salesman eyed him quickly and said "Let's see, you're a size 44 long." Frank laughed and said, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years!". Frank tried on the suit. It fit perfectly.

As Frank admired himself in the mirror the tailor asked, "How about a new shirt?" Frank thought for a moment and then said, "Sure." "Let's see,16 and a half neck, 34 sleeve." Frank was surprised. "How did you know." "Been in the business 60 years." The shirt fit perfectly.

As Frank looked at himself in the mirror, the salesman said, "You could use new shoes." Since Frank was on a roll, he said "Sure." The man eyed Frank's feet and said, "9-1/2E." Frank was astonished. "That's right. How did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years." Frank tried on the shoes and they also fit perfectly.

As Frank walked comfortably around the shop, the salesman asked, "How about new underwear?" Frank thought for a second and said, "Why not." The man stepped back, eyed Frank's waist and said, "Let's see, size 36." Frank laughed.

"Finally I've got you! I've worn size 32 since I was 18 years old."

The tailor shook his head. "You can't wear a size 32. Size 32 underwear would press your testicles against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."
