There was a young kid who was born with a large brass screw in his bellybutton. He grew up with this shiny screw and was ashamed to have people see it, so he kept it covered at all times.

As he reached his teen years he was afraid to get too close with girls, although there were many beautiful ones that smiled at him and would approach him. He was afraid they may discover the brass screw in his belly.

One girl finally came to him and asked, “Why don’t you join us at my house Saturday for a swim in our pool? There will be about 10 others there and we will have refreshments. If the party gets going good we may just have a skinny-dip party.”

The idea intrigued the young man, then he remembered the brass screw. He said, “It would be very nice and I would love to come, but I can’t. I have to work Saturday.”

The very sexy girl said, “Then come over Sunday afternoon and just you and I will do a skinny-dip.”

Damn brass screw!!! He tried to come up with an excuse not to go, but wanted to so bad he almost cried. “I’ll see.” he said, and sadly walked away.

This encounter upset him so badly that he went into his father’s garage and procured a large screwdriver. He bared his tummy and tried to turn the screw. It would not turn. Then he thought it may have a left hand thread, so he tried turning it the other way. No luck. He just could not turn it.

He searched his father’s shelves and found a can of WD-40. “Aha! Just the thing!” so he applied a liberal amount. Again he tried the screwdriver. No luck. That big brass screw just would not turn. He ran into the woods and fell down under a tree and cried...

After a long cry the young man stood and looked up at the heavens, stretched his hands upward and prayed, “Dear Lord. I beg thee, Oh God. Please, please, remove the brass screw from my belly button!”

Something happened. He felt a strange feeling and looked at his belly. Sure enough, the screw began to slowly turn - round and round. Suddenly that ugly, hated big brass screw fell to the ground!!!

And his butt fell off...
