Sure ask me! The internet is a wonderful tool (no pun intended) for finding out medical info on people. And since Ira's was readily availible, well, here's what his condition is known as...

Peniminimustinylitis: A condition where individuals named Ira are (ahem) 70% short of of the "distance" which males achieve at puberty. Symptoms include living in trailers located in certain south Florida towns, building wooden rides to compensate for "shortcomings", and peeping out from, and photographing unsuspecting women using portholes. This leaves them with only 30% of capability of other males. However, it should be noted that achieving fatherhood is still possible from intercourse via "splash pregnancy" which does not require the other 70% to reach the bottom and achieve fertilization.

oldy --your scientific research has achieved the usual inaccurate results Big Grin

71spud - 2009-02-05 20:49

That is how we roll in WI!!!!

It is funny how many of those actually apply to me.....

Actually all of them do except the snow-mobile. I don't own one. All the rest I have done on a regular basis (seriously!!!) In fact just a couple of weeks ago my daughters were selling Girl Scout cookies door-to-door and it was below zero out side, probably close to -10. Laugh Out Loud
