    I have cancer. I found out last week and it's a bit of a shit really. I saw the surgeon today and he was pretty positive, he'll operate tomorrow if they can fit it into the schedule or shortly after. Then its more tests to look for any secondary cancer and hopefully that'll be the end of it. Who needs two balls anyway? :)

      Oh yes[^] - just like Mastectomies affect women's mental health, but only noticeable to the man rather than the whole world.

      Quite. Men must have fragile egos if they need the comfort of having an artifical bollock dangling around.

        I'm not sure it is a "fragile ego" question - I still have the original equipment so I can't be sure - but I would suspect that the big C and having strange men cut you about in private areas is bad enough to cope with, without adding an extra worry of "will it look normal?" "will it repulse her?". It is (apparently) easy enough to get "performance anxiety" without adding unnecessary crap. Perhaps you should ask someone who has had a mastectomy if missing a breast is a sign of a fragile female ego? But I'd wear a cricket box first if I was you.

                  Actually going by the name of the game snooker would be dull even with two balls. Trying to snooker your opponent with just two balls on the table is quite impossible. ;P :-D Cheers!

                      Hope it goes well. The surgeon sounds positive and the results are normally excellent if it is caught early enough!

                        You could hide one behind an ornament on the mantelpiece? Not in the rules, I admit, but you'd have to be a bit flexible with only two balls to play with...

                          2 balls left on the table is a common thing. You can't hide the ball to create a snooker - but the player can miss. And you can create long distance situations between the 2 balls - so plenty of possibilities to play.

                          regards Torsten I never finish anyth...

                              And around Christmas time, you could put little bells in, instead. How cool would that be? Notice how I carefully avoided the obvious joke?

                                If only to avoid freaking out the ladies. Of course, there are ways around it. "Yeah, but my brother has three, so it evens out." Thought about this a lot this year. I'm not entirely convinced the doctor is right and, admittedly, the symptoms have abated. Still...

                                        Thanks. I narrowly missed spraying Diet Coke over my $3,500 touch screen just now :laugh:.

                                          I have cancer. I found out last week and it's a bit of a shit really. I saw the surgeon today and he was pretty positive, he'll operate tomorrow if they can fit it into the schedule or shortly after. Then its more tests to look for any secondary cancer and hopefully that'll be the end of it. Who needs two balls anyway? :)

                                          Good luck, man :rose:. Makes me feel like a real sissy for worrying about two patches of skin cancer I've had removed in the last six months. Hmm. This reminds me of something I always wanted: a picture of Lance Armstrong in the yellow jersey, with the caption: Imagine if he had two. ;)
