Witty Wednesday

Happy hump day everyone!  Here is a lighthearted post to help propel you through the rest of your week!  Thank you to Katelyn Reist from Western University for the laughs!  What a clever analogy!

'COVID: School was closed, businesses were shut down, and band members couldn't play in the games! All everyone did was stay indoors with their family who drove them crazy and whom some wanted to murder after the quarantine! Some went out with their gang of friends; most wore a mask, but those who didn't could easily get a fever! How many species of animals were mentioned?

If it was rewritten, it would read like this:

COVID: Fish were closed, ferrets were shut down, and gorilla members couldn't play in swans! All everyone did was stay indoors with their otters who pigs them crazy and whom some wanted to crow after the quarantine! Some went out with their buffalo of friends; most wore a mask, but those who didn't could easily get a stingray!'

Icelandic Beauty

Thank you to Lisa Weikert, our first Volume 55, Issue 4 winner, for her photography submission!  We love that you were able to capture the bright colors and raw beauty of nature!
