Fred went to his doctor complaining of severe headaches. The doctor examined him and
announced: "You have a very rare condition in which your testicles are pressing against the base of your spine, and this is causing the headaches. The only cure is castration I'm afraid". Of course Fred was devastated, but accepted that it would have to be done. After the operation he found himself without a headache for the first time in years. But he was depressed at losing such an important part of himself. Walking down the street one morning he came to a tailor's shop. "That's what I need" he said, "a new suit. That'll cheer me up". So in he went and told the elderly tailor what he wanted. The tailor looked him over. "Size 44 long" he said. Fred looked surprised. "That's right. How did you know?"
"Fifty years in the trade" replied the tailor, "I've learned a thing or two in that time". Fred donned the suit and was delighted at its perfect fit. "Excellent" he said, and looking around saw some shirts. "How about a nice new shirt as well" he said. "42 chest, 16� collar" said
the tailor. Fred laughed, "Spot on" he said, "You certainly know your business". The shirt too was a perfect fit and enhanced the suit wonderfully. "Would you like some new underwear to finish it off?" asked the tailor. "Yes I would" said Fred. The tailor appraised im once more. "Size 36" he said. "Aha, I've got you there! I've been wearing size 34 since I was 18". The tailor shook his head. "You can't wear a size 34" he said. "If you
do, your testicles will press up against the base of your spine, and you'll get blinding headaches".
