He might not die from his wounds, but he won't be continuing his bloodline either...
LONDON (Reuters) - A Welsh rugby fan cut off his own testicles to celebrate Wales beating England at rugby, the Daily Mirror reported Tuesday.In potentially related news the creator of Dolly the cloned sheep has gotten a human cloning license.
Geoff Huish, 26, was so convinced England would win Saturday's match he told fellow drinkers at a social club, "If Wales win I'll cut my balls off," the paper said.Friends at the club in Caerphilly, south Wales, thought he was joking.
But after the game Huish went home, severed his testicles with a knife, and walked 200 yards back to the bar with the testicles to show the shocked drinkers what he had done.
Huish was taken to hospital where he remained in serious condition, the paper said.

You know how some mental illnesses or manisfestations of mental illness may at one time be rare but become more and more common? For example: anorexia/buliemia or cutting. I wonder if cutting off genitalia is also gaining in popularity.

That's what 35 beers will do to you.

I wouldn't blame the beer. It was the shoddy workmanship on the leather straps -- watch for news of him suing the straitjacket manufacturer.

First its self-emasculation, then Rob Hackney's suggestion of female circumcision in the comments to the sex-crazed teacher story. Sexual mayhem gaining in popularity? I need a vacation.

I know the story says he said, "If Wales win I'll cut my balls off," but aren't you just sure what he really said was, "If Wales win, I'll cut me balls off, I will."
