Yep. B Wal-Morts got 'em, all right! Look at the article I found. Associated Press Bentonville, Arkansas Wal-Mort CEO Lea Scott says his behemoth-like company is looking forward to the challenge of conquering the Folk Music market. Setting itbs sights on the market currently dominated by St. Paul based B RedHouse Records, Wal-Mort is announcing a breakthrough deal with the Preeminent Singer-Songwriter of the New Folk Movement, John Gorka. Wal-Mort will be stocking the New Folk starbs CDs in virtually all of their virtual 4,000 plus stores. In order to meet Wal-Mortbs enormous production demand, Gorka's staff has started overtime production in several sweat-shops set up on the Angle Indian Reserve on the Lake-of-the-Woods in Northwest Minnesota. B Gorkabs team will be driving the CDs into the Northern Minnesota metropolis of Warroad by way of a fleet of recently leased GEO Metros where they have to sneak the product past Pete Seeger and load them onto the local Fed-ex flight into Minneapolis and on to Wal-Mortbs Chicago terminal for distribution. Gorka plans to cover production costs by using seed money provided by St. Paul based entrepreneur Garrison Darth-Keillor. They are paying the native residents who work in Gorkabs sweat shops each a nickle per month to hand chisel the CDs out of US banned Canadian White Pine. B When asked what effect the ban would have on Wal-Mortbs ability to successfully market the CDs, Mr. Scott snickered and auto-dialed a number on his cell phone and said bHey there Georgie, can I talk to The Great White Hunter?b Wal-Mort is also in contract with Gorka to release three new CDs on the Wal-Mort Only imprint. B These releases would be available only at Wal-Mort. According to Mr. Scott, Gorka is held in such high esteem by the Ojibwa Tribe, B presumably for jump-starting the local economy with his sweat-shops, that the Red Lake Junior College Football team has named their mascot, the "Funny Little Polish Guy", in his honor. Gorka expressed surprise on hearing that the NCAA has banned Red Lake Junior College from any post-season tournaments until they change the name of their mascot. ------------------------------ End of good-noise-digest V9 #5 ******************************
