Or, What Jon Does When Sandra Prattles Forever On About Something or Other
“Jon, we’re so lucky to have window views like this.”
Jon, sipping his coffee, agrees.
“But that morning mist has me worried.”
“Why’s that, Sandra?”
“With the bomb threats in New York and LA schools, I worry about our kids.”
“They’ll be fine,” Jon reassures her.
She looks out the window prattling on.
“And I don’t think that’s mist, but haze from pollution. And it hasn’t rained in 37 days. I think the climate’s changing bad here. And what if Donald Trump is right and not crazy….”
Jon leaves.
“Where you going, Jon?”
From the distance, she hears, “To board up the windows!”

I was going along with this story until you got to the bit about someone not being crazy… 🙂
Feel like boarding up a window? Maybe throwing a brick through a window – or better yet, at somebody’s head?
Randy
Dear Randy,
The Trump comment has grimacing, making faces and searching for boards and nails.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Jon could use some help – and then maybe the two of you could find some other Trumpant windows to move on to.
Randy
Will Jon board up the windows from the outside, I ask myself. lovely dialogue.
Internal window boarding is impossibly difficult – water boarding, on the other hand, isn’t and is always done externally..
I just threw that in just for the heck of it. Whaddya think?
Randy
Ha, sounds like a wise move!
Jon says that a wise man says wise move.
I’m just relaying his message.
Randy
Delicious. >
Mmmmm.
Very amusing, and great dialogue.
Wait, what? Donald Trump not crazy?? What is she thinking???
Poor Jon.
Jon appreciates your sympathy.
Asks for you to send extra wood and more nails…
Randy
Donald who? Been in bed with flu – have I missed something?
Very funny.
Wanna quack up?
It was Donald Duck.
Very entertaining.
So is your comment.
Da-da-dump!
Randy
She’s onto something. I hope Jon has enough boards for everybody.
Why?
Do you like to go boarding?
Are you board?
😉 Randy
I think Donald Trump is very right… A brownish shade of right (and maybe crazy too)
Yech….
The comments are just as funny as the story!
We try our best when we can see the forest from the boards!
😉 Randy
If the fog and Trump get much worse, not even boards will keep them out. Well done, Randy. 😀 — Suzanne
I like how you think!!!!! 😉
