What makes me DOUBLY glad that it wasn't my scrotum is the fact that the
wiring fell apart and they had to cut my pectoral (chest) muscle and stretch
it to help hold my sternum together.

If it had been my scrotum, I shudder to think of what they would
have had to cut (and OWWIE... stretch) to hold it together.
