Operation

"Doc," says Jack, "I want to be castrated."
"What on earth for?" asks the doctor in amazement.
"It's something I've been thinking about for a long time and I want to
have it done" replies Jack.
"But have you thought it through properly?" asks the doctor, "It's a
very serious operation and once it's done, there's no going back. It
will change your life forever!"
"I'm aware of that and you're not going to change my mind; either you
book me in to be castrated or I'll simply go to another doctor."
"Well, OK.", says the doctor, "But it's against my better judgment!"
So Jack has his operation, and the next day he is up and walking very
slowly, legs apart, down the hospital corridor with his drip stand.
Heading towards him is another patient, who is walking exactly the
same way. "Hi there," says Jack, "It looks as if you've just had the
same operation as me."
"Well," said the patient, "I finally decided after 37 years of life
that I would like to be circumcised."
Jack stared at him in horror and screamed, "#$^& THAT'S the word!"
