I Agree with Kermit

October 31, 2020 ~ Buddy McElhannon ~ 3 Comments

There’s a cute image of Kermit the Frog floating around the internet.  He’s laying on his back shouting, “I’m not turning my clock back on Sunday.  The last thing we need is an extra hour of 2020!!!”  I agree with you Kermit.  I refuse to give this year one more freaking hour. Of all days, … Continue reading I Agree with Kermit

October 9, 2020 ~ Buddy McElhannon ~ 2 Comments

With Halloween just two weeks away, I am beginning to get the urge to shout “BOO” to 2020 in hopes it will go away.  This year feels like a daily reliving of Groundhogs Day and Halloween as we wear a mask EVERY day.  Come to think of it, 2020 feels like one of those haunted … Continue reading A Ticket of Grace
