I was hungry for a peanut butter cup so I stopped at Bronco
Krakowski's candy store next to the high
school. I pulled out some change to pay for it and realized I had a Sakagawea
dollar among my other coins.
"Just give me that other quarter," Bronco said.
"It's not a quarter it's a Sacagawea dollar," I
said.
"Don't be a sack of shita," Bronco said."
Just give it to me."
I pulled out a dollar bill and handed that to Bronco.
"Why'd you do that? Bronco asked.
"The Sacagawea dollar was created to honor the Native
American woman who helped guide Lewis and Clark on their expedition to see the
Louisiana purchase."
"You mean they made a dollar after some Indian?"
"Yeah without her and her ability to get along with
various Native American tribes, Lewis and Clark might never have made it."
"Sounds like a lot of bull shit. Are you talking about
the Lewis and Clark that appeared at Trump's party?"
"Didn't you study American history in high school?"
"Nah. The teachers union was always having special
meetings or trying to get rid of the principal, so we played dodgeball.
"Why didn't they like the principal?"
"She wouldn't bow down to the head of the teachers
union, so they were trying to get her fired," Bronco said.
"So you didn't learn a lot in high school?"
"No. But I got really good at dodgeball."
