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 heck 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!"
Joe tried on the suit. It fit perfectly. As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?"
Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure."
The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeve and 16-1/2 neck."
Joe was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?"
"Been in the business 60 years!"
Joe tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly.
As Joe adjusted the collar in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about new shoes?"
Joe was on a roll and said, "Sure."
The salesman eyed Joe's feet and said, "Let's see...9-1/2 E."
Joe was astonished, "That's right, how did you know?"
"Been in the business 60 years!"
Joe tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly.
Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?"
Joe thought for a second and said, "Sure."
The salesman stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see...size 36."
Joe laughed "Ah ha! I got you! I've worn size 34 since I was 18 years old."
The salesman shook his head and said.........................................................
"You can't wear a size 34. A 34 underwear would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one heck of a headache."
dummmmmm.................................
ALWAYS get a second opinion......

The creative guys in my story ,which I left half last day were as adamant as any other creative in any other agency.... but this time as there think tanks had gone dry, relented to hear the Junior executive .......
He said.... The client just want one message to be delivered... "Expect the unexpected"
The scene is an office.. a tough boss into his late 50's...tall.... fiery ..fiercesome... everyone is afraid of the guy...
The secretary to the boss... hot ..sizzling...sexy..tantalisingly exposing and exposedly tantalising......
The only weakness for the boss is this chik..the secretary...she is crawling in his blood and veins.... as a desire...as a forbidden fruit...
Wow... chuckled the young guys....
mmmm ...gruntled the old guys...
The man couldnt lay his mind open before the girl, for he doesnt know how she will react,,, if it happens to be on the negative side, then his good will may go down the drains....
One day the girl walks in ,as sexy as ever, and tells him... please come home sir, today evening , for a party... and she walks offff...
She turns around half way through and says invitingly... I am going to be alone at home...
THUD... our hero falls flat....He HAS heard what he wanted to hear...finally ( he thought) he has won her over..." tonight I would be rocking that dame..."
He goes over to her place... she is more sizzling , as she opens the door.. and invites him to the large sofa at the hall....
Pls bear with me for a moment .......she says, as she went inside.... im just back....
Our hero gets impatient.... he cant wait... he takes off his clothes and sits ready expecting the heroine to come for him to " rock"...
Trrrrrrrrrrrrr...
Opens the large curtain of the hall and hero looks back from his sofa in expectaion... but gets a shock of a life time......
There is his whole family....His wife..sons..daughters..son in laws..daughter in laws..grand kids.. the whole brigade...
Happy birthday to you...they sing and sing as they advance into the hall.....
And then they see him naked.....
Close up of the hero.. and a punch on his nose...
The caption appears..... XYZchocolates... "expect the unexpected".......
Oh God.... it is simply amazing.... the crowd seemed to be agreeing unanimously......
foot note : Idea..... it can come on anyone ..but not every one can accept it....
