Maybe he should've taken some aspirin

Joe had been suffering from terrible headaches for 20 years. He
finally decided to go to the doctor, who gave him a thorough
examination. After Joe got dressed, the doctor came in and said: "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 up against the base of your spine and the pressure
creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is
to remove the testicles."

Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if, at age 45, he had
anything to live for. He couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but
decided he had no choice but to go under the knife.

When he left the hospital he was headache-free for the first time in
over 20 years, but he felt as if he was missing an important part of
himself.

As he walked down the street he realized 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, "Hey, that's what I need, a new suit."
The elderly salesman eyed him quickly and said "Let's see, yeah, you're
a size 42 long." Joe laughed and said, "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 tailor asked, "How about a new
shirt?" Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure, why not?" "Let's
see, 16 and a half neck, 34 sleeve." Joe was surprised. "How did you
know." "Been in the business 60 years." The shirt fit perfectly.

As Joe looked at himself in the mirror, the salesman said, "You could
use new shoes." Since Joe was on a roll, he said "Yeah, sure." The man
eyed Joe's feet and said, "91/2 E." Joe was astonished. "That's right.
How did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years." Joe tried on the
shoes and they also fit perfectly.

As Joe walked comfortably around the shop, the salesman asked, "How
about new underwear?" Joe thought for a second and said, "You bet, let's
have it." The man stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see,
size 36." Joe laughed. "Finally I've got you! I've worn size 32 since I
was 18 years old."

The tailor shook his head. "No, no, you can't wear a size 32. Size 32
underwear would press your testicles against the base of your spine and
give you one hell of a headache."
