This one comes from Randy.
In the early 20th Century, Thomas Edison was spreading the word about electricity.
Once, while vacationing out West, he stopped at the Sioux reservation. Edison was shocked to learn that there was no indoor plumbing, and that he would have to use an outhouse. In fact, he was told, the Sioux had to use the outhouse regardless of the weather.
To help the Sioux, Edison installed lights in the outhouse. With this kind act, he became the first person to …
… wire a head for a reservation.
For those of you not familiar with nautical terms, sailors call the bathroom a head.
Andf I was expecting something about an electric injun.
Holy shit. This is a Utah Phillips routine:

When I was 16 (1946) I was an usher at Radio City Music Hall. There were a lot of returning GIs. One walked up to an usher (not me) and asked where the head was. The usher pointed to the head usher. The ribbing in the locker room was unmerciful.
At least this wasn’t one of your “crappy” puns.
It wasn’t?
Hahahaha. Loved it.
