Okay John, it's good to have you back...I think. You're kidding though, right? Is it just me or is this story missing something? Did the man's thingy need thawing first? Wow, talk about freezing someone's assets -no pun intended. Let me guess, the nurse just happened to be Lorena Bobbitt? I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. I think I'll check on 'BD' now.Thanks for checking in...

A former US soldier is suing a hospital claiming that excessive ice-pack treatment on his groin led to the amputation of his penis.
Michael Nash claims that a nurse repeatedly put ice packs on him after surgery, causing frostbite and gangrene.
Mr Nash sued the federal government, responsible for the service veterans' hospital, in US District Court in Kentucky, seeking 10 million dollars in damages for what he calls medical malpractice.
Nash went to the hospital in Lexington for the surgery. His lawyers said a nurse packed his groin in ice for 19 hours afterward and a significant part of his penis later had to be amputated.
They said Mr Nash will require reconstructive surgery.
Something like this happened to a friend of mine. It was really tragic. I found out they did some really radical surgery on him. We met for lunch a few weeks later and he explained that the radical surgery was that the doctors had grafted a baby elephants trunk onto what was left of his penis. I was flabergasted! I was even more flabergasted when an elephant trunk reached up from below the table and grabbed a hard roll and disappeared! My friend grimaced, and I did not know what to do when another hard roll was grabbed off the table by the mysterious new penis/trunk! My friend was tearing up and I told him not to worry, that these types experiments took time to work themselves out, and he said "Thats not why I'm crying! I just don't think I can fit another hard roll in my rectum!
O. K. I admit I just made that up and pieced that together from a joke I heard in 4th grade. Prayers sent to the unfortunate fellow.

In one of my first sessions as a therapist some guy was telling me all about his impotence problems. I was trying to use what they taught in school. I was thinking "I need to be empathic and use reflection." I stated "that sounds really hard." It wasn't the right response.

Okay, ya'll did it ... ... ... you managed to turn an otherwise great morning into a 'cross my legs' kind of day ...
Thank you very much for the wonderful 'mental pictures' I have right now ... Mr. Happy is acting like a turtle now ... he's gone into hiding and I probably won't see him for a while ... so much for 'happy endings' ... ... ...

Yesterday in a meeting, a bald guy came in and said he was called to say he was one of 2 chosen to win this big prize. Later, he was called to say he did not win, but his conciliation gift was a free haircut. I thought that was pretty awesome that he had the balls to share that! Moral of my story - a penis is nothing without some balls LOL!
