50-words, bookkeeper

The Bookkeeper

I help do the books for a voluntary organization.

One day they came in and said, “Thank you for doing the books and please take care of the goats in the basement?”

“No,” I said, “I do books not goats. I quit.”

Then I woke up, I had been dreaming.

50 words, Trump

Since the inauguration, President Trump has uttered over 9,000 lies, some trivial, some profoundly dangerous. These have been deployed as a Churchillian “bodyguard of lies” to protect his central claim: “No collusion.”

That lie, we are told, was no lie at all. How unnecessary were those 9,000 plus falsehoods! Sad.
