Balls R Us

2007 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

62-year-old, Russell Daniel Angus, was ailing. And he felt it was a pain that he felt there could be only one remedy for.

Testicle removal.

He asked his doctor to remove his dangly bits, but says the doctor balked at his request...so he hired "2 or 3 professionals" to do it for him. 2 OR 3? I want to make it very clear that if I had hired someone to remove my reproductive organs I would have an accurate count of participants.

The Pros, 2 OR 3 of them, went to work on their client's nether region on a makeshift operating table on the upper level of Mr. Angus' home where his daughter found him bleeding on the 28th of July, 2007.

Police found bright lights, medical equipment, and a camera (for that Kodak moment?), There was blood in the living room, hall and bathroom as well. removed 3 specimen jars...(3?)No word yet if they contained the offending bits of Mr. Angus.

They also say that Mr. Angus has refused to name this crack team of quack neuterers. He doesn't want to "get them in trouble". It is noted that his wife says he spends a great deal of time on his computer, and has limited mobility, and his daughter "didn't want to search" his home.

St. Paul police spokesman Tom Walsh said he has seen a lot in his years on the force, but, "I have never in my life seen anything quite like that."

Methinks there is more to this then meets the eye...but two things are for sure...

1) He rendered himself unable to procreate further. & 2) He did so in a particularly questionable way.
