Ted Kennedy Recovering

From surgery for blocked carotid artery. Doctors say he is fine and "eating ice cream".

Which is their euphemism for saying he's sipping Chivas in preparation for the Red Sox-Cleveland playoff game.

How is it that all his brothers get struck down in their prime yet the runt of the litter always manages to take a licking and keep on ticking?

Have you seen Teddy lately? I think he exchanged the Chivas for ice cream several years ago, which means ice cream may not be the best choice of snack. Anyway, he's not the runt of litter anymore.

My Grandfather was a mean, hard drinking, chain smoking, SOB.

He lived 89 years.

I suspect Ted "the Swimmer" Kennedy will "grace" us with his prescence for some time.

A classmate of mine at Holy Cross, Rich Cambria was the one who did the operation on "The Swimmer" Kennedy so it would come out fine. Still hope he ends up like his old man Joe.
