Where's The...Sausage?

That's what Ruth Holladay, late of the Indianapolis Star, is asking.

There's a long-running rumor that a, ahem, certain portion of the infamous outlaw's anatomy is kept in a jar at the Smithsonian (cos that's how they roll). And so on. Go ask Ruth, I'm too busy alternately blushing and snickering!

    "The Attack Of The Fifty Foot Johnson!"

  2. There used to be the same rumor a while back, but it was about Al Capone.
