This is too good not to share.
Politician makes a joke using Bob Hope and Johnny Cash in punch line.
Johnny Cash's daughter, Rosanne Cash, objects, calling politician an "a**hat".
Family with the name (pronounced as•shat) objects!
Who's next to object?! Fortunately, not Bob Hope's children, who seem to (rightfully) view the whole situation with proper perspective....
You could make this stuff up, or just wait for the next Facebook or Tweet!

3G Mobile Internet Comes to Mount Everest
Nepali mobile network operator Ncell has installed the first 3G base station at the summit of Mount Everest, giving visitors, climbers and people living in the Khumbu Valley the ability to make calls and wirelessly connect to the Internet.
To test out the new facility, Ncell also made the world's highest video call at 17,388 feet.
So far, visitors of Mount Everest had to depend on satellite phones to make calls, but now they can do so through a standard GSM, 3G-enabled network. "The coverage of the network will reach up to the peak of the Everest," Ncell Nepal chief Pasi Koistinen said to reporters in Kathmandu on Thursday.
Ncell is a joint venture between private investors and Sweden-based telecom TeliaSonera. Ncell's network currently covers less than one-third of Nepal's population, but TeliaSonera said it planned to invest $100 million in the next year to extend coverage to more than 90% of the country's population.
"This achievement is as mighty as the altitude as 3G high speed internet will bring faster, more affordable telecommunication services to the people living in the Khumbu Valley, trekkers, and climbers alike," said TeliaSonera CEO Lars Nyberg.

People are more violently opposed to ...
@GiggleFlower: People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs.
