Can't get up, Can't get out



An elderly gentlemen went to the local drug store and asked the pharmacist for the little blue Viagra pill.

The pharmacist asked how many?

The man replied, just a few, maybe a half dozen, I cut one into four pieces.

The pharmacist said; that’s too small a dose. That won’t even get you through intimacy.

The old fellow said, Oh, I’m past seventy years old and I don’t even think about intimacy anymore.

I just want it to stick out far enough so I don’t pee on my new golf shoes!

I don't find this humorous at all. It is vulgar humor and insensitive to anyone who has experienced difficulty due to the complications associated with prostate cancer treatment.

I am disappointed in you, Dan.

This is beneath you, HB

Guess I don't really know you. It isn't even funny. Reminds me of gradeschool boys who are just discovering the physical side of sex and the attraction of girls. They find humor in anything that comes under the title sex.

You may tell me to chill, but obviously you have not had to deal with the complications associated with the treatment for prostate cancer. IT IS NOT A JOKING MATTER. And I still stand by my criticism. For a physician to make light of erectile dysfunction, is insensitive and in bad taste.

As a prostate cancer survivor, the road is a bumpy one. First you have to deal with the big "C" word. And then you have to deal with everyone telling you that you are lucky to have gotten prostate cancer instead of a different kind. To those people I say, put it in your body and then see if you feel lucky. Then after reviewing which of the treatments is best for you...none are without complications. You have to choose which one you will live with. ALL result in erectile dysfunction and some kind of urinary continence problems....just varying degrees.

There are a lot of jokes out there... that one should not have been chosen by an MD who has patients that have this problem. It is not funny if you are the one whose life has been altered.

Anon 2:47,
My dad had prostate cancer and he was almost the first one to make a joke like that or on anything else for that matter. However, I do understand your feelings. Some Irishmen like Irish jokes and some Irishmen don't.

I think it falls under, "different strokes, for different folks."

First off, there is no mention of prostate cancer anywhere in this posting.

You people would find fault with anything he says or does.

You are a bunch of pitiful people.

Aging has its complications and this is one of them.

It was posted as humor, he said he does something light on friday, so get over it or quit reading.

I know urologist who have endless jokes about this topic. It does not make them a bad doctor any more than a priest making a joke about pediphile clergymen.

Grow up!!!!!!!

Wow! I am shocked at the thin skin of some. It was simply a joke. There was no mention of specific illness...it was intended as humor. Good luck in your recovery AND in lighteneing up.

Why didn't HB delete anon 11pm posting? I thought no more hospital business..hmmm he let that one slide...slippery...leave comments in there when it benefits him directly, or rather, deflects criticism to another party off of himself. And "insensitive"? Heck, he's been that for the past two years, why suprised now 9/21 840AM anon??

For anonymous 6:37, I didn't catch up on postings until this morning and it was deleted once I read it.

Some of us have lives outside of blogging and continuing ad hominem fallacies.
