    Now all we need is Billy Bunter to take the trifecta!
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    Pomegranate juice is good for prostates apparently. It's the rubbing it in that's the problem...

    Pomegranates, hmm.

    Aren't they the things with demon seeds? Thinking about my kids, I wonder whether they've eaten some at some stage....

    I reckon. My kids are 18 and 14 - that dismissive Dad's being a buffoon again stage where you lose complete credibility unless something has been run past their spotty mates.

    It does offer lots of windup opportunities...

    I don't know but I can ask the doc who's going to "do" me when I get to that certain time for a compulsory checkup age.

    You're a brave soul, My doctor is always suggesting the rollover exams; I tell her that I have an agreement with my bum, " As long as it leaves me alone, I leave it alone"

    I've noticed that when we get into our 7th or 8th decade; the kids remember all of those embarrassing moments and start telling on us

    Oh, my room has been booked for a long time.

    If there's only one question all christians agree on - it's me going to hell!

    Yes, I have a 19 yo who's been throught that, plus we had his mate living with us from age 15.

    I set them up one night and told them I wanted to have a serious word with, took them into the office, sat them down, looked them in the eye and said, "Right, man to man stuff here. I want to talk to you both about masturbation!"

    They both just about swallowed their tongues.

    The plot stopped there, as Mrs Atheist, who was listening in behind the door, dissolved into hysterics.

    First off, we are not women, we do not have "compulsory check ups".

    Second, the best tip I can give to any bloke is to find a Chinese woman doctor. NEVER, ever use a male doctor who used to play rugby for Caernarvon, whose dad died in the pits and has hands like sides of mutton.

    Seriously, while unpleasant, it's not painful.

    Yes, women can escape the home invasion most of the time, but after birth, I wonder how any woman has enough dignity to care about such trifles!

    Nah, I'm going to be one of those really crotchety old geezers who carves them up as useless layabouts!

    I think here in blighty they've started screening for prostate cancer from 55.

    I think it was suggested by women after all they have to go through.

    Or, more likely: started by some unscrupulous NHS ivort tower-builder seeking to build another administration arm.

    Fact is, prostate screening is a terrible idea. In a whole universe of medical problems, widespread prostate screening is both financially irresponsible and medically hypocritical.

    If your prostate causes trouble, have it checked, otherswise, by far the best plan is to ignore it. (Ignore medically, that is; it should certainly be given a good workout frequently!)
