| Abe goes to his doctor and says, "Doc, I want
to be castrated. I'm seventy years old, I've lived a full life, but now I feel that this
is what I need to do." The doctor replies, "Abe, at your age, this is a serious operation.
You should talk to your wife and your Rabbi, think about it some more."
"No," Abe adds,
"I thought about it and I want you to do it."
"Abe," replies
the doctor, "This is serious. I want you to think about it for another week, and if
you still want me to castrate you, I'll do it."
A week goes by and Abe
comes back and says, "let's do it!"
Following surgery, the
doctor is at Abe's bedside as the patient wakes up. "Abe," says the doctor,
"All went well, but it will take a couple of weeks for you to recover. You should
live out your days with no problems. By the way Abe, I always thought that you were
Jewish."
"What do you mean,
doc?" Abe replies with a puzzled look on his face.
"Well, you are not
circumcised" the doctor states.
"Oh yeah," replies Abe,
"That's what I wanted!" |
