Well, if this individual hasn't reproduced yet, it seems less and less likely.

By the way, I read this a couple of times and concluded that the Police Chief wasn't really suggesting that the femoral artery runs down the penis -- I think he meant "down there" in a more geographical sense, as in "In the general vicinity of where the schwazola is located, if you catch my drift."

I think he took his job (air conditioning repairman) a little too literally.

Apparently he wasn't paying attention in basic training when we were taught the "This is my rifle...THIS is my gun" chant.

I hope he's learned two valuable lessons: first, this is why people use holsters; two, this is why you don't put your finger in the trigger guard until you're ready to shoot. Third lesson, kevlar jock strap.

So he had a discharge in his pants? Odd, so did Jenny McCarthy's dentist.

Perhaps he was practicing for his new career: Organ grinder.
