My surgeon was speaking to me with a heavy lisp... telling me not to worry, and that soon I would wake up and be drinking chicken soup after the surgery" I laughed at him and said something along the lines of, I know you are joking and that you'll do a good job.... I later discovered that he had a cleft palate and that is in fact how he speaks... I often wonder how my life would have been different had I not have laughed in the face of the genetic disorder that the guy that operated on my nuts had.....
... In other news, thanks for this thread, actually pleasant to not feel I am alone on this one... At least we now have somewhere to point people who ask "who has the biggest balls in aviation"... right?
