OMG what a HOOT!! The NRA is calling... [View all]

Okay, a few years ago the NRA called and asked for MR tosh and would not speak to me. Didn't matter, we both share the same views on whatever the NRA might want to talk about, but they weren't having it.

So just now, NRA shows on the caller ID so I answer just for fun. They actually ask for ME - MS tosh!! Cool!

Young woman tells me that Wayne La Pierre has some words for me and she will come back on the line to get my reaction so will I hold? SURE!!

Recording of Wayne spouting all of that paranoid, poor us BS and naming names (Obama, Hillary, Bloomburg) and "we don't have the media on our side", "we don't have billions", and on and on.

Then some guy comes on and asked me if I heard it. Why, yes, I did. Well, what did I think? I told him enthusiastically that it was the most hilarious stuff I'd heard in weeks!

Guess what? He HUNG UP ON ME!!!

Delicate flowers, those.

Thanks for letting me share!
