[Dixielandjazz] castrti

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

aha  well though out Bill me mate:  however I would still think that 
this would require a closer look  if one were indeed to rediscover the 
family jewels  if indeed they were actually proven to have been shoved 
into storage  :))

I am going to see Bob Romans tomorrow and I have heard that he is an 
expert in these matters since he often refers to some of his sidemen as 
having or was it playing with No Balls. :))

Snicker snicker snort snort !!

    Could it be that in some cases the disappearance of the testicles 
was actually caused by pushing them up into the original body cavity 
 from which they came, giving a very clear impression that the young 
male was indeed castrated?. This would still raise the male voice - -I 
know it would with me. Much later in life, one of the gems popped out, 
allowing fatherhood ( At which moment, they shouted Fi-gar-o!, 
equivalent to our "Eureka, they've found it!). Yet another possiibility 
is that young girls, with the voices the choir masters desired, were 
snuck into the castrati choirs, until they were booted out, or ran away 
with one of the fellows whose voices had dropped at the same time as 
the body part. In these cases, the offspring could indeed be from 
"castrata".
