Hey, I found this article about Joe speaking in PA.

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/09/25/politics/fromtheroad/entry4478020.shtml

"It was one of the few times I was away from their beds for a couple of hours, and I came back, and they looked like they had lighted up like Christmas trees," explained Biden.

"My one little boy was in traction, but other boy had a serious fractured skull, and, um, they were happy. They each separately had a football in their bed. And, uh…"

Biden then looked down and went speechless for eleven seconds, amidst complete quiet from the audience, until some crowd members started to clap and brought him back.

"And um…anyway, I said guys, where did you get the ball? And they said Rocky Bleier gave it to us."

I really love this man.
