A surgeon was retiring from his long and rewarding career as a specialist in circumcision.Throughout his career he had kept the foreskins of his patients in specimen jars as momentos, and now wished to fashion them as a souvenir.
He took his hundreds of specimens to a leathersmith, and asked him to craft an article of fine artistic quality.
\"I\'ll see what I can do\"said the leathersmith\"Come back in a week\".
The surgeon returned one week later, eager to see what the leathersmith had made for him.The leathersmith presented him with a wallet.
\"All those foreskins and you only make me a wallet\"exclaimed the surgeon.
The leathersmith replied\"Yes, but if you stroke it, it becomes a briefcase.\"
