Man, that Blue Oyster Cult & Foghat concert I went to in the early 80's. I'm sure it's where I got Tinnitus...
Every darn one of you! But I like it....

Mine was from the Ted Nugent/Blackfoot concert back in the 80's.Man, that Blue Oyster Cult & Foghat concert I went to in the early 80's. I'm sure it's where I got Tinnitus...
It's funny for mocking politicians, but it's also the exact complaints the First Nations communities in Ontario (and presumably elsewhere) legitimately voice on a regular basis.A politician visits a remote Native American community …
… with news crews following him around as they tour the place.
He asked the chief if there was anything the people need. “Well,” says the chief, “we have three very important needs.”
“First, we have a medical clinic, but no doctor.” The politician whips out his phone, dials a number, talks to somebody for two minutes and then hangs up. ”I've pulled some strings.Your doctor will arrive in a few days. Now, what was the second problem?”
“The second problem is we have no way to get clean water.The local mining operation has poisoned the water our people have been drinking for thousands of years.we've been flying bottled water in and it's terribly expensive and not eco-friendly.”
Once again, the politician dials a number, yells into the phone for a few minutes and then hangs up.
“The mine has been shut down and the owner is being billed for setting up a purification plant for your people.Now, what was your third problem?”
“We have no cell phone reception up here,” the chief says.
Ummm....4 out of 5 of those are permanent members of my gear, with the 5th making regular "guest appearances"....
