British man born without penis will have new one made using skin from arm
WITH his good looks and charming patter, its easy to see why Andrew Wardle is a hit with the ladies.
But while he has slept with more than 100 women, there is a secret he has kept from all his admiring pals he was born without a penis.
Andrews birth defect has caused him mental anguish, even driving him to the brink of suicide.
But now he is preparing for ground-breaking surgery which will see him become one of the first men in the world to have an entirely new penis built from his own arm.
Speaking to The Sun, the 39-year-old said: I never thought this day would come and I still cant believe it is possible for me to actually have a fully functioning penis.

Should have thought that through BEFORE calling 911!
Woman calls 911 to report abandoned baby - actually a puppy. Operators think human.
Candice Salvatore Called 911 To Report 'Abandoned Baby' - A Puppy Baby: Police
Police in Staten Island, N.Y. received a call from a woman Tuesday afternoon reporting an "abandoned baby" outside her home, and were less than amused when they discovered it was an abandoned baby pit bull.
Candice A. Salvatore, who made the 911 call, told the Staten Island Advance that she frequently refers to animals as "babies."
"I wasn't thinking that they would think it was an actual infant," the 27-year-old told the Advance. "I didn't tell her it was a human baby. I just said it was a baby."
The police report, however, quotes Salvatore as saying she called the animal a "baby" because "I needed to spice it up to get you guys to come faster.

From the same article, Newt's position on child labor in 1996:
Hypocritical piece of crap to the very core. He is not fit to be our commander in chief.
Newt Gingrich on child labor laws today:
Former House speaker Gingrich last month described some child labor laws as "stupid" and argued that low-income children would learn critical values by working at a younger age. He then outlined his proposal to replace "unionized janitors" with a "master janitor" and several students.
"It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children in child laws which are truly stupid," Gingrich said during a speech at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. "Saying to people you shouldn't go to work before you're 14, 16. You're totally poor, you're in a school that's failing with a teacher that's failing."

From the same article, Newt's position on child labor in 1996:
But in a 1996 ad titled "Cookie," Gingrich slammed his then-congressional opponent, Michael Coles, former CEO of Great American Cookie Co., as an "unscrupulous businessman" partly because of a 1993 violation of child labor laws and accused him of using children "for hazardous labor," according to a transcript of the ad in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
