Hug a penis today.
You know, there are days I'm reminded that I just should not be allowed to bitch about the quality of my life at all. An anesthetist friend of mine called me to tell me she participated in a penilectomy yesterday.
Fifty year old man had penile cancer and had to have the whole thing removed. All of it. Gone.
*Shudder*
I really ought to be thankful that a) I have a penis, and b) I don’t have to watch ANYONE have theirs removed.

Ouch!

I once saw a medical procedure where a woman had a penis attached to her body.
It was called an Adadictomy.
(rim shot) Thanks, good night, and drive safe!

I know you're still reeling from the operation, but unless your friend is working in some crack-house back alley clinic in Tijuana, they're probably an anethesiologist. ;)
and p.s. what a GREAT friend to have!! Everyone should know a vet, a mechanic, a tattoo artist, and an anesthesiologist. THAT is a party, my friend. Even by Jimbo standards.

actually, she is an anesthetist, a master's level nurse with a whole boat load of extra training.

Reminds me of an episode of NYPD Blue. Some guy gets his penis cut off by a prostitute. Later in the episode, they get a call that a man found a "thumb" at an atm machine.

There really should be a National Penis Appreciation Day.
I am writing my congressman.
