Tasmanian Vasectomy
After having their 11th child, a Tassie couple decided that enough was
enough, as they could not afford a larger bed.
So the husband went to his doctor/veterinarian & told him that he, & his
wife/cousin, didn't want to have any more children. The doctor told him
that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem,
but that it was expensive.
A less costly alternative, said the doctor, was to go home, get a huge
firecracker, light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his
ear & count to 10.
The Tasmanian said to the doctor "I may not be the smartest man in the
world, but I don't see how putting a huge firecracker in a beer can next to
my ear is going to help me."
"Trust me" said the doctor.
So the man went home, lit a firecracker, put it in a beer can, held the can
up to his ear, & began to count:
"1"
"2"
"3"
"4"
"5"
?..at which point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs, &
resumed counting on his other hand.
This procedure also works in Ireland, & New Zealand.
