I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer. The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking
on various topics. Finally I thought about an age old question:
Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?
Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts.
Well, after another beer, and some heavy deductive thinking,
I have come up with the answer to that question.
Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby; and here is the reason for my conclusion.
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say,
"it might be nice to have another child."
On the other hand, you never hear a guy say,
"You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."
Kicked playing footy, nut was size of grapefruit, as much morphine as they could give me before they operated 7Pm Sat niight,,,,,,,,,, the memory lives onnnnnnnnnnnn, 49 years later.

Now that's a memory I can well do without, thank you very much, Baz. However, I do remember standing on the pedals of my Speedwell Flash with 3-speed chain gears when a gear slipped and my nuts were introduced to the crossbar. Oh dear...
