[Fmpro] FUNNY...........FMPRO Digest, Vol 39, Issue 8

[LesHurdle]

It would be funny James if it were not for the realization so many  
PRO members simply will not and refuse to see the light of day.

I recall a conversation with a FMPro lister who is a PRS member.
The utter joy of getting one's first PRS cheque [UK spelling since  
PRS is in the UK], then the heady elation with income from the  
USA...... 'someone over there likes my music'.

Then as the decades pass and one realizes maybe that £100 should have  
been perhaps £10,000 bites deep in to the psyche.

Then as more time passes, one gets a little older and sees  
unaccounted for 'shifts' in money, millions of dollars [SAF], the  
mind boggles.

Fortunately mirth takes over at the absolute hypocrisy of the entire  
entertainment industry distribution machine and a good laugh takes  
some of the pain away.... yes, thank you Vic.
