XXXL?During World War II, British soldiers discovered that placing a condom over a gun's barrel would keep the weapon dry and prevent it from corroding (near the sea) or icing up (in winter conditions).
No such condoms existed for larger weapons, however, and it was suggested to Winston Churchill one day that 18" long specimens be made to cover larger artillery pieces.
Churchill agreed, with two stipulations. First, the larger condoms would clearly be labeled "For Use By British Servicemen." And second? The condoms would also be labeled "Small"!
[Trivia: Among the quotations dubiously attributed to Churchill? "Better make it a double, I've got to talk to that idiot Roosevelt on the phone again," and "Yes, Hitler may crush me but at least I have both of my balls!"]
Churchill, Winston Leonard Spenser (1874-1965) British politician and writer, First Lord of the Admiralty (1911-15, 1939-), prime minister (from 1940), Nobel Prize recipient (Literature, 1953) [noted for his remarkable eloquence and leadership ability; for his memoirs and letters; and for such works as The Second World War, The Great Republic : A History of America and My Early Life]
