This story was passed on to me and I thought you vets would particularly enjoy:

This is a great story, I wish I was closer to Montana!

The radio station America FM was doing one of their "Is anyone listening" bits this morning. This first one was, "Ever have a celebrity pull up and say 'Do you know whoI am?' routine."


A woman called in and said that a few years back, while visiting her
cattle rancher uncle in Billings, MT., they had occasion to go to dinner at
a restaurant that does not take reservations. The wait was about 45 minutes.


Lots of other rancher types and their spouses were already waiting.
In comes Ted Turner and Jane Fonda. They want a table. The hostess says they'll have to wait about 45 minutes. Jane Fonda asks the hostess if she knows who she is."Yes, but you'll still have to wait 45 minutes" Then Jane says, "Is the manager in?"

The manager comes out, "May I help you?" Do you know who
I am?" ask both Jane and Ted. "Yes, but these folks have all been waiting already and I can't put you in ahead of them" Then Ted asks to speak to the owner.

The owner comes out. Jane again asks, "Do you know who I am?" The owner says, "Yes, I do. Do you know who I am? I am the owner of this
restaurant and a Vietnam Veteran. Not only will you not get a table ahead of all of my friends and neighbors here, but you also will not be eating in my restaurant tonight or any other night Good bye."

Only in America, what a great country! This is a true story and the name of the steak house is :


Sir Scott's Oasis Steakhouse 204 W Main MANHATTAN, MT 59741 (406)
284-6929 If you ever get there, give this fella a sharp salute, buy
a steak and tip the waitress!


We should never forget this unprosecuted
traitor!

And let's not forget what "our gal" Hillary said to the troops in
Iraq, "This war has no support from the American public"!!!!

I thought it was a shame when Ted and Jane broke up, I thought it was a match made in Heaven..........A Slut and a Mutt.

Cool Cool Cool

Great story. Parrott.
Wish that every maligned Vietnam Vet had the opportunity
to slap-down Hanoi Jane!

I love this story, been hearing it for a couple years now. However, the truth of it has yet to be determined. Nothing would please me more than to know that Hanoi Jane was indeed slapped down.
