I guess I have to give up my card. After twenty-something years with a
pacemaker (I got it in my 20s), mine was removed for good a couple of
months ago. That was just after an abandoned lead eroded through my
chest wall & eventually lead to open heart surgery to correct, a few
weeks ago. I am now metal-free for the first time in decades (except for
the wire they put my breastbone back together with.


Eep.

I'm still not certain they farked up and sewed a VW Bug in there...
Big enough lump, and I have vague, drug-fuzzed memories of them
showing me something the size of a fat MP3 player with a good 20 yards
of garden hose attached. And I swear I can hear the thing over my AM
radio.

Still waiting for the "I'll tase myself, Bro!" t-shirt...
