Insignificicant Federal Holiday JOW #835



I am starting to get a handle on the two candidates for the Presidency.  I made an analogy for how things were in high school.  Donald would be the big man on campus - just ask him.  He would swagger down the hall with his sycophants in tow, lording over the other kids.  He would not study particularly hard but, hey, they can’t fail him; he’s on the football team so he gets by academically.  Hillary would be the informal head of the mean girls.  She would be determined to be Valedictorian and studies relentlessly.  Not only that, she sucks up to the teachers for extra credit.  Then she sneaks into the Science Fair and sabotages other kid’s projects.

 After a few moments a man, name unknown, at the back of the room, slowly raised his hand.
 "Yes?" said the Instructor.
 "I was just wondering if it would be all right, if she carries a golf bag?
