Do you know who I am!
This is a great story! The radio station America FM was doing one of its 'Is Anyone Listening?' bits this morning. The first question was, 'Ever have a celebrity come up with the 'Do you know who I am?' routine?' A woman called in and said that a few years ago, while visiting her cattle rancher uncle in Billings , MT , she had occasion to go to dinner at a restaurant that does not take reservations. The wait was about 45 minutes; many ranchers and their wives were waiting. Ted Turner and his ex-wife Jane Fonda came in the restaurant and wanted a table. The hostess informed them that they'd have to wait 45 minutes. Jane Fonda asked the hostess, 'Do you know who I am?' The hostess answered, 'Yes, but you'll have to wait 45 minutes.' Then Jane asked if the manager was in. When the manager came out, he asked, 'May I help you?' 'Do you know who we are?' both Ted and Jane asked. Yes, but these folks have been waiting, and I can't put you ahead of them.' Then Ted asked to speak to the owner. The owner came out, and Jane again asked, 'Do you know who I am?' The owner answered, 'Yes, I do. Do you know who I am? I am the owner of this restaurant and I am a Vietnam Veteran. Not only will you not get a table ahead of my friends and neighbors who have been waiting here, but you also will not be eating in my restaurant tonight or any other night. Good bye.' Only in America , is this a great country or what? To all who received this, this is a true story and the name of the steak house is: Sir Scott's Oasis Steakhouse 204 W. Main , Manhattan , MT 59741 (406) 284-6929 If you ever get there, give this fellow a sharp salute, buy a steak, and tip the waitress. Keep passing this on. We should never forget our national traitor! = ___________________________________ |

Here in Montana we call it "Fun with Ted and Jane". They aren't the first celebrities to pull that here and probably won't be the last (it disgusts most of us). We just don't think we have to kiss anyone's @$$ here! But we sure will kick it if necessary!
Galatians 6:3 "For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself."
LOL you guys are awesome!!! Good for you. I've never been to Manhattan, Mt but going to your restaurant is a good enough reason for me to go. Kudo's to you!! If they don't stand with us, I BOYCOTT ALL THEIR MOVIES.
SNOPES reported this story as untrue. SNOPES, however, has a reputation of UNTRUTHS.
It is such a moving story that really touches my heart.
