The Whistler


Chris' department got to use the companies sky box tickets to Wednesday nights Iowa Cubs game, so we attended.

On an evening when the pregame ceremonies honored jurors and featured speeches that cited the Constitution and our Founding Fathers, the I-Cubs chose someone to whistle the National Anthem.

Farting the anthem must be next, because either way it's just blowing wind out an ass.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.

By definition, anthems are patriotic musical compositions that evoke and eulogize the history, traditions and struggles of its people.

The Iowa Cubs failed miserably with this selection, after holding auditions for this honor(?).

I guess I shouldn't be surprised as a one time President of the Ragister & NBC News, Michael Gartner, is their Chairman.

The I-Cubs also show their appreciation for those renting sky boxes by charging them $5 for Frosty Malts that their concession menu says should be $4, and I've purchased at the grocery store for $1, plus they added a $2 service charge for 2 malts.

I guess that's how he can afford to contribute $50,000 to the CommieTommie Harkin Institute for Public Policy.
