australian Vasectomy  (from a Kiwi)
	
	
		After having their 11th child, an Australian couple decided that that was enough, as they couldn't afford a larger bed. So the husband went to his doctor and told him that he and his wife didn't want to have any more children..  
The doctor told him there was a procedure called a vasectomy that would fix the problem but it was expensive. A less costly alternative was to go home, get a large firecracker, light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10.  
The husband said to the doctor, I may not be the smartest guy in the world, but I don't see how putting a firework in a beer can next to my ear is going to help me with my problem." 
"Trust me, it will do the job", said the doctor.  
So the man went home, lit a cracker and put it in a beer can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count:  
"1, 2, 3, 4,  5," at which point he paused, and placed the beer can between his legs so he could continue counting on his other hand. 
This procedure also works in Ireland ..
