King Arthur
King Arthur was in Merlin's laboratory where the good wizard was
showing him his latest invention. It was a chastity belt...except it
had a rather large hole in the most obvious place.
"This is no good, Merlin!" the king exclaimed, "Look at this opening.
How is this supposed to protect m'lady, the Queen?-"
"Ah, sire, just observe," said Merlin as he searched his cluttered
workbench until he found what he was looking for. He then selected his
most worn out wand, one that he was going to discard anyway. He then
inserted it in the gaping aperture of the chastity belt whereupon a
small guillotine blade came down and cut it neatly in two.
"Merlin, you are a genius!" said the grateful monarch, "Now I can
leave, knowing that my Queen is fully protected."
After putting Guinevere in the device, King Arthur then set out upon
his Quest. Several years passed until he returned to Camelot.
Immediately he assembled all his knights in the courtyard and had
them drop their trousers for an informal 'short arm' inspection. Sure
enough! Each and every one of them was either amputated or damaged
in some way. All of them except Sir Galahad.
"Sir Galahad," exclaimed King Arthur "My one and only true knight!
Only you among all the nobles have been true to me. What is it in my
power to grant you? Name it and it is yours!"
But, alas, Sir Galahad was speechless.
