8. The Kennedy Center Board will come up with an excuse

The last one was that the tarp was covering work to repair damage done by removing Trump's name.

These people are -- in addition to being Trump ass-kissers -- are mean, evil, and petty.

Many years ago – early 1950’s – my two cousins, their parents, and their beloved cocker spaniel named Susie moved into a new housing development in XXXXX Mississippi. A couple of streets over lived a guy who rode a motorcycle to work every day, passing in front of my cousins’ home. Susie the cocker spaniel sat in the front yard, along the road, and barked at the guy as he passed – did not chase, just sat there and barked.

After a couple of weeks of this, the guy had a shotgun with him and shot Susie. She survived.

In response, all us kids lined the road when we heard the motorcycle coming and, as he passed, we shouted “There goes that mean old man who shot Susie!!” We did this for a few days then he changed his route. We figured out his new route and lined that route, too. Finally, our parents intervened and dragged us away. Cops had arrested the guy and he had to pay Susie’s vet bills.

What’s the purpose of this story? Maybe we need a crowd to follow the Kennedy Center Board members around town, pointing and shouting . . . . . does anyone know where they live???
