I was castrated by Dr. Spector on April 5, 1997. THANK YOU, DR. SPECTOR!!!
It just occurred to me a few minutes ago, it was only a year and a few days later, April 28, 1998, that I was sworn in as a US Citizen. No, castration was not one of the requirements, but I can't help wondering how many eunuchs before me have become citizens of this great country.
But perhaps more important to those who will read this post, THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME when I regretted becoming a eunuch!
