Old Ladies Rule



Old ladies rule country probably this world dos not matter—be they anglo, Indian, asian, white, hair, jet-black or blue hair or bald and wigged. My mom runs the show where ever she is at and regardless of who thinks they are incharge of the vent what ever the event. You can try to move these folks along as fast as you can but whoa be unto you if they do not want o be moved.

This was most evident with the second act at this weekend’s Japanese Festival. This was the most venerable Bernice and her Japanese child dancers. Dianne and I were sitting to the left of the stage right next to the master of ceremonies(announcer), the guy who was trying to keep the whole events schedule on schedule. These program had given Bernice 10 minutes t have her kids do their musical numbers about three. True to form Bernice began changing the whole format of her act. She figured she did not have enough kids, or maybe more kids in kimonos just appeared but she immediately incorporated them into her act…When Bernice had finished her first three songs, she felt this was not enough, especially after she her the applause. The announcer thanked her and her kids for their musical renditions and as he began introducing the act Bernice and company launch into another song, to my delight. It was only after the third attempt to clear the stage the Management finally confront this darling Asian senior and her dancing kids. Bernice was not happy as she left the stage.
