When i took my preschooler for the eval they have to take for Kindergarten, they had on the paper work a question about guns and how many, plus if any one in the house drinks and how often. So i just wrote in None of your business.
I read other people's emails

Wow, when I was in high school we had guns in the car on the school parking lot. :?

Daughter was proudly wearing her gun safety blaze orange hat at the DR's one time and a new nurse asked the question.

daughter, tapping the front of her hat, which said "Hunter safety Graduate" or something similar, said. "uhhmmmm Hello? Duh?" as only an exasperated 12 year old girl can. They had a photo wall in the Dr's office, I think besides a few early hockey pics, the only ones my kids posted were of them with dead birds, deer, or hogs,

No but I helped prove the theory that walls are tougher than hands.

It's not the walls you need to worry about. It's the studs. How did that work for you? Adequate release of frustration? Feel better now? :P

My response is simple. "That's really none of your business." It's one of those questions on a rather long list that I refuse to answer unless I personally know the person asking it.

Me; What are you looking for? :P

SAM: So doc, would you like me to yank your nuts out of your nose ?

THE END, quite simple actually. :|


This reminds me of a hilarious true story that happened about 10 years ago when I went in to get a vasectomy at age 50. The doctor starts working away, looks up, and says:

"Gee, it's really easy to work on you OLD GUYS :( :( :( because everything is hanging down where you can get at it. You get some young fat kid in for one of these, and his balls are all the way up in his throat, and it's practically impossible to get at anything."

You may now return to your regularly scheduled B.S. session.... :P

When my doctor asked my answer was a question to him. I asked have you ever had sex with another woman other than your wife since you got married. He never asked again...

I’ve discussed this topic with one or the other of my medical consultants a time or two, but only when I needed to raise the question. I wouldn’t allow them to open the topic at all.

I would like to remind the group that the files they keep on you are NOT confidential. The ones your attorney has are; those aren’t. Even your pastor can be made to cough up. Usually they won’t but they could.

Regards, Porkie

I can't pass up this opportunity to tell my vasectomy story. I ended up having it done twice because the first one didnt' take. I was much more relaxed about it the second time around. When they had me go into the office I pulled out a couple of hose clamps and put them on the desk. When the doc comes in I tell him, "Hey doc, I put some hose clamps on the counter...perhaps they'll work a little better".

So later he's down there doing his thing and he looks up and asks, "So how are you feeling so far?". I replied, "Well I feel pretty good and all, but every time you pull on my testicle I can feel my eyeball getting pulled back into its socket."

He got a good laugh out of that and had to wait a minute before he could continue. I'm glad he didn't accidentally cut off a nut when I said that.

I have been asked and my answer was," Yes I do and am damn proud of it and my wife and kids have been trained on how to use each and everyone of them." Oh yes I have a permit to carry would you like to see it.
There was no further comment from them.
