The silence is deafening ;-)

So I'll give a hint... it's related to my recent surgery.

I don't know what it is but, speaking of surgery;
Years ago I had a vasectomy, a few weeks after the surgery I brought
the staples into work and passed them around to the guys asking what they
thought they were. While the last guy was looking I mentioned they were the
staples from my vasectomy, he couldn't get them back to me fast enough and
everybody else had a sinking look on their face. ;-)

I had that "sports conversion" in 1972 after the 4th child was born.
Surgeon grabs the left nut, pulls down hard and slices... I scream. He
smirks and says, "I can do just this side today and you can make
another appointment for the right side." I allow as how he better
finish the job now, because I'll never come back ;-)

I don't recall "staples". I remember he cut about a 1" section from
the tubing and put "clamps" on both ends... seems some grow back
together :-(
