Humor in lieu of actual content

Kamala Harris visited a remote northern Native-American reservation. With news crews following her around as they toured the place, the Vice President asked the chief if there was anything they needed.

"Well," the chief said, "We have three very important needs. First, we have a medical clinic but no doctor."

Harris whipped out her cellphone, tapped a number into it, talked to somebody for two minutes and then hung up. "I pulled some strings. Your doctor will arrive in a few days. Now what was the second problem?"

"We have no way to get clean water. The local mining operation poisoned the water our people have been drinking for dozens of years. We've been flying bottled water in and it is very expensive."

Once again, Harris tapped in a number, yelled into her cellphone for a few minutes, and then hung up. "The mine will be shut down, and the owner is being billed for setting up a purification plant for your people. Now what was that third problem?"

The chief looked her straight in the eyes and said, "We have no cellphone reception up here!!"

  5. Very good one Joe. I'ma gonna use (steal) it. That said, when I was working Alaska in the early 2000's cell coverage was sketchy so we took satellite phones with us. Worked every time. Just saying. I still think she is a dummy load.
