There is a cruel musician joke about drummer Buddy Rich who despite great musical reputation was equally known for throwing hissy fits at the musicians he employed. I think about that in light of the Ontario Conservative  leaders resigning for sexual assault accusations because I keep re-watching the news footage, and enjoying  it.

moments later, phone rings
