My only criticism of your article is the comparison of Trump to a feline. This could be taken as insulting to that intelligent, and generally loving, species.

I connected with you through your display of art at the Central VT Hospital. You never fail to impress me on all counts. I am amazed at the lengths some people will go to make a spectacle of themselves. You captured that perfectly.

Thank you. He is truly appallingly, grotesquely horrid.

Great read. Maybe he’ll come back to Burlington this time around and you’ll have another chance to bask in the glory.

You were very brave. And I have never read such a detailed account of the event. But it makes me think about something Mark Twain said at Hells Gate in New Zealand. I can't find the exact words right now but he said he would gladly have paid a large fee to never have seen it.

There are many things that scare the crap out of me--some real, some neurotic--but i actually enjoy confrontations with bullies. So no bravery involved. Overcoming boredom was more of a challenge.
