SpookyKid Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Just saw a stoy on the new senator from Montana, Jon Tester, and it mentioned he was a very gifted saxophonist until he lost several fingers in a farming accident, then switched to trumpet. He earned a degree in music education and was, fora short time, a music educator before returning to farming. The story also mentioned he was good friends with one of the members of Pearl Jam. Made me wonder if any other politicians had a music background or actually marched with a corps? I might have to watch C-Span to watch the changes Tester makes. "Senate Republicans! Can you dress that freakin' desk line already? House Democrats! I swear if you don't all learn to vote in step correctly, I'm replacing you with the Green Party! At least they will try hard. Ted Kennedy! That's the third time you've been late! Take two laps! Speaker of the House! Are you chewing gum? Ten push-ups now! And I'm calling your parents at the end of the session!"
