Hello, I am W.E. Newman, and I am a Clapper

~ 150 Words ~

I can’t help it, I have taken a turn in my medium life. I am now a clapper.

I have always left a clap.

However, I have noticed on many of my articles, I am getting more and more claps.

Then it dawned on me. When I used to take my parents out to eat…

I would pay the tab and leave a tip. My step-dad would dig in his pockets and also leave a tip of a dime or two.

I am not suggesting what anyone else needs to do. I just don’t want to be a short “tipper” like my step-dad.

Also, for me it is an addiction. I can’t stop clapping, and it’s free.

Back in the day the saying at the video rental store was,” Be Kind Rewind”.

Let’s change that to:
“Leave a Clap, a Lot of Claps”.
