Brother, I considered your idea, but in the end I was worried that he could "Houdini" his way out. And as entertaining and suspenseful as that would be, the problem would still remain unsolved.

Besides, I have plenty of other grandsons to carry on the Hatchet name.

A wise choice Brother, a wise choice, and I am sure that there is more than coincidence involved, Praise Him, in that I am admirably situated to help and advise you in this matter.

My experience on Godless New Zealand farms as a child during school-holidays, means that I am well-acquainted with just the equipment that you need for this job.

You are no doubt aware that sheep and cattle are emasculated on farms, but perhaps not so well aware that the method described by our dear Sister Mrs Rogers is often used -- specially made rubber rings are placed over the animals testicles with a special tool, and within two to three weeks the naughty bits fall off.

Here is an image of the tool needed. I have arranged to have one sent to you immediately. I have included one of the surgical appliances pictured as well, but recommend that it not be used unless the ring method fails. Surgical removal has disadvantages -- bleeding, the possibility of infection, etc -- that the ring method circumvents.

There is information about the use of these tools here:

I will heed your Godly advice and elastrate before I emasculate. To demonstrate my gratitude, I am sending you a loaf of my wife's delicious spiced prune bread. Bless you, dear Brother.

Just what sort of True Christian do you consider yourself to be, with an attitude like that?!!

I'm afraid that the poor child Iksy (and her family) has yet to find the Lord, Sister. It is clear that the demon of licentiousness has them in a vice-like grip and they have abandoned themselves to their carnal desires, let the lusts of the flesh run rampant in their lives, and embraced all manner of debauchery. Despite their youthfulness, whoredom and harlotry has become the rule rather than the exception in their sad lives and they are on an ineluctable course to the raging sulphurous flames of the pit lest they see the error of their ways, repent, accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, and check into the main office at Landover to arrange a tithing regime.

Let us always remember these poor children in our prayers.

I remember we once recommended this paraphernalia and associated protocol to Liberal Edwards (for his personal use only), and we haven't heard from him since.

Brother Hatchet, you may find this link to be useful, if your decision to castrate the boy isn't already set in stone:

Victorian Anti-M'ing Devices






I don't know if they're available for purchase, but I'd be happy to try to rig a similar device(s) for your grandson, in my basement workshop. I like to tinker, and I have plenty of odd components (wires, battery packs, PVC pipe, thumb tacks, etc.) laying around, I'm sure I could fashion something to prevent the child from going blind, mad, and ultimately, to hell.
