Ouch – but it’s worth it?

March 19, 2010

Thousands of guys get vasectomies in March.  Guess why?  Is it because they are suddenly feeling responsible as heads of families?  Or because they are going to focus on adoption rather than fathering more children of their own?

Actually the increase is because the guys want to be able to sit on the couch and watch the March Madness basketball games.

Across the country, urologists like Dr. Stephen Jones of the Cleveland Clinic find that the number of scheduled vasectomies tends to jump by 50 percent the week that the tournament begins.

Here’s a really blatant audio ad for the 24 prime seats at an Oregon urologist’s office.  Snip City

Isn’t there an easier way to get a few days off work to watch the basketball finals?  Couldn’t you come up with something more creative than this?  And what are you going to do next year?  Get a reversal or just go for another body part?  Let’s see – the tonsils and appendix should be good for two more years.  Then those questionable knees might need some work – oh and the gall bladder’s been acting up.

Or you could create your own work like these folks and structure your work schedule any way you want it.
