It Is Vasectomy Monday,
Anticipation for today's topic has been at a fever pitch. It is four weeks and counting until Dan's vasectomy. Today we will cover some statistics and we will have a little joke at the endThere are amazingly few statistics pertaining to the vasectomy but here are some of the more interesting ones.
* Each year there are over a half million procedures performed.
* The actual procedure for a no scalpel vasectomy takes only 20 minutes and can be performed in a doctor's office. I just hope my physician does not feel the need to be hasty. There is no need for any record breaking going on.
* Despite being oft-called "getting snipped" the most common procedure does not require a scalpel nor any rusty scissors.
* There is no reduction in virility or sex drive. Amazingly enough my wife was not really concerned with this possibility.
* Men are typically described as recovered after 48 hours and are able to return to work.
* Most insurance will cover this procedure. This is a real no-brainer since the cost of a pregnancy and delivery are generally well over ten thousand dollars. I think they should actually pay me to get this done.
I owe the vasectomy joke of the day to vasectomy-information.com and it is titled Redneck Vasectomy.
After having their 11th child, an Arkansas couple decided they could not afford a larger bed and they needed to call it quits.
So her husband went to his veterinarian and told him that his cousin did not want to have anymore children. His doctor told him there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem but it was expensive. A less costly alternative, said the doctor was to "go home, get a cherry bomb, light it and put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to your ear and count to ten."
The Arkansas man said to the doctor "I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I don't see how putting a cherry bomb in a beer can next to my ear and counting to ten is gonna help me."
"Trust me" said the doctor. So the man went home, lit a cherry bomb and put it in a beer can. He held it up to his ear and began to count:
"1"
"2"
"3"
"4"
"5"
At which
point he paused, placed the can between his legs and resumed counting on the
other hand.
