Breaking news from my Reliable Source from Pearl: Mr. M has discovered a new and improved way to gather eggs. His method includes talking charmingly to the hens and then putting a bucket over their heads. At least, I think he puts the bucket over the chicken’s heads, not his own, but I don’t know that for sure. I have asked for a photograph, but one has not been received as of this writing (I think Mrs. Mc was not in favor of sharing such as she felt she might have to sleep in the chicken coop with said birds). Now, I may have recently been named in a lawsuit for mentioning Mr. R. McD’s name again, so I must be vague to protect the innocent (namely me)! Therefore, I am not mentioning Mr. Ron McD’s name in order to present the new name which the aforementioned is now known: The East Gatesville Chicken Whisperer! Folks, my Reliable Source (whose last name may or may not be “Ray”) has assured me that this is not Fake News. Only in Pearl…and sometimes in East Gatesville!
This week’s Bible verse comes from Proverbs 15:18—Hot tempers cause arguments, but patience brings peace. Good News Translation
