The Grinch Who Stole Taekwondo

Then he got an idea! An awful idea! THE GRINCH GOT A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA! He noticed that the few civilian Whos that were training in Taekwondo were making lifetime commitments to the art. Recognizing that money could be made from such commitments, the Grinch made plans to capitalize on the situation by stealing control of Taekwondo; however, he needed to do it without the Whos becoming aware of what was happening.

"I know just what to do!" The Grinch laughed in his throat and he made a many striped black belt. And he chuckled, and clucked, "What a great Grinchy trick! "With this black belt, I'll look just like a Taekwondo grand master!"

The Grinch crept into Who-ville unnoticed, took over a few Taekwondo schools, made himself the supreme grandmaster of Taekwondo, gradually took control of the Taekwondo organizational structure, and moved the organization headquarters to the top of Mount Crumpi. By requiring that each Taekwondo school be registered with Mount Crumpi, he insured that all the schools would have to obey his commands if they wanted to register and certify their student black belts. The Grinch required all the schools to send him a portion of their student fees and he sat back with his faithful, but dim, dog Max and enjoyed all the riches.
