Barter? Not a good idea.

Saw this on Craigslist:

Computer repair services for vasectomy

Would like to trade personal computer hardware and software repair, upgrade, restore, and rebuild services for vasectomy procedure.

Once your computer is repaired I can make you a bootable CD or DVD to restore your system back to the day it was fixed.

Thanks for looking.

Have a great day.

Any doc who would barter surgery is not someone I would hire. I sincerely hope this was a joke.

This about sums it up

A concise description of the vasectomy procedure from "Brian", as quoted by his wife (hey guys, anything you say can and will be used in your wife's blog--in case you didn't already know).

You go in and they blah, blah, blah, they make a small incision, and then remove, burn, and clip the blah, blah, blah, and after 15 minutes you’re done.

Brian's wife goes on to describe the post-vasectomy obligation to flush out the pipes, so to speak, to clear any hangers-on out of the spermway. At In Mother Words.
