"Shrapnel in left arm above elbow. Shrapnel removed and appl bacitracin dressing. Ret to Duty,"

LOL indeed! I've done that numerous times in my life! I wonder if I can get some special government grant or the like, perhaps the civilian equivalent of a medal so that I can get out of the Social Security program, not even Vietnam!

I wonder if getting tucked in with some warm milk, cookies, and some TLC was in the Rx too.

Ya'll are being too tough on Sen. Kerry. That stuff really stings when you put it on a boo-boo.

It takes a real man to know they are going to apply the "stingy stuff" and still go in for a second and third treatment. Especially when your Mommy isn't there to kiss it and make it better.

My eight year old bo even cried once when I sprung it on him. Next time I'll give him a Purple Heart to make him feel better.

I have gotten worse wounds than that using a weed-eater on my lawn.
