Good morning. I don’t have a lot of time. I don’t care to get into why, and neither do you. Anyway, I’m thrilled beyond words that the carnival barking snake oil salesman is no longer a Washington State University employee. If ever there was a state government version of a Sopranos-like “no show” job, Ernie Kent lived on that Pullman corner for five long years. And since fellow empty suit Bill Moos gave Kent one of the most coach-friendly contracts in the history of ever, Big Ern’s spirit will be on that corner for years to come.
Info note: I picked that photo for two reasons.
