Senator Kerry is going to use Senator Kennedy's cane after 2nd hip operation.

Damn, what did he do to his hips? Was it all that hockey he played?

Oh, does this mean another beard, too?

1. Touching but :-( about the surgery

Also the comments at the link are beyond pathetic.

2. Hockey, running, biking, skiing, snow boarding, wind surfing and any other

sport I forgot to name. (I wonder if any war injuries might have had some impact as well.) Given that he had planned to go to Afghanistan, the problems must have been sufficient to get him to cancel his plans and have the surgery.

3. Probably. Is there a sport this man HASN'T played? lol

Too bad he has to have another surgery, though. Ouchie. :(

Isn't Vanessa getting married next month? I wonder if he will do it before then.

I wish him all the best with it!

4. He also is speaking of going to Afghanistan in October

I wonder if there is a Senate break long enough to do all three. I would guess that he would prefer not to be on crutches at her wedding, when I assume he will proudly walk her down the aisle.
