He Still Has Shrapnel?

I just read this posting at Stark Truth - one of the funnier sites in the blogosphere - about how Little Johnnie Edwards stuck up for his boss (don't go there!) and actually said that Kerry is still carrying shrapnel!

Must be in his briefcase.

I used to just love Little Johnnie jokes - does anyone else out there remember those? Before the Language Gestapo busted everybody?

(Of course, I could be totally off-base on this issue, and if it turns out that John Kerry does, indeed, have sharpnel in his body, I will humbly beg your forgiveness)
