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!!” he said. Joe tried on the suit, it fit perfectly. Joe says “How bout a shirt?” The tailor says sure. “Let’s see..34 sleeves and 16 1/2 neck.” Joe was surprised, but then he remembered he had been in the business for 60 years.

Joe then asked about some new underwear. The salesman says: “Sure, let’s see…size 36.” Joe laughed! “I got you, I’ve worn a size 34 since I was 18 years old!!” The salesman shakes 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.”
