One would think that a great military leader had balls of brass that clanged when he walked and a penis of steel beyond compare. Napoleon for example, the little corporal had to have a set the size of a prize bulls to lead an army against so many enemies.

I thought the Catholics had some strange rituals when it came to relics, but the French. Gawd almighty. They severed and saved his penis at his autopsy? It’s now in a private collection.

It was an unusually cold June in Waterloo.

“The Little Corporal” was of average height (at the time), about 5’6", but the French inch was larger and thus using those units he was a little over 5 feet. He beat up [a bunch of giants](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potsdam_Giants).

But the difference between flaccid like this and fully erect --------- I’m just saying. He could have just had one of those turtle-peckers for all we know. 😃

and 2 strikes, so he really had to guard the plate. The pitcher wound up and let loose with a high heater, Hitler couldn’t lay off. He took a mighty swing aaannnndd…missed. Strike three! His third strikeout of the game, and 57th in his last 100 at bats, to go with only 11 hits. Later that day he was cut from the team, which pissed him off no end. The rest, as they say, is history.

And here I was going to come back with  
Göring has two but very small,  
Himmler has something sim’lar,  
But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all.

So all in all I would say you win. 😉

Just thinking about having my penis cut off at autopsy and preserved has caused it to shrink…

I’m willing to cut the guy a little slack. 🙂

No thanks, I’ve already got a small one, but I prefer to call it a “sport model”.
