You’ve probably heard by now that there is a school bus driver shortage across the country. Some parents are getting creative with how they are getting their kids to school.
Like this dad in Columbus, Ohio who started taking his kids and their friends to school in a STRETCH LIMO! Apparently his family owns a limousine service, so he borrowed one for the early morning trip. Last Monday he took 25 kids to school and then 42 on Tuesday! Those kids must’ve felt very fancy rolling up to the front of that school.

Halloween is 20 days away and between now and the 31st you will hear and see a lot of ghosts saying “BOO”. But why? And where did that come from?
The Oxford English Dictionary says that the term “boo” came from the Latin term boare and the Greek word boaein which mean “to cry aloud, roar, shout.” So when Halloween comes and you hear a ghost try to be scary and say “boo,” just remember that by definition they are saying “I’m yelling,” which is hilarious and very Casper like.

If you follow me on Instagram (@KevinBegley) you’ve probably seen that every October I celebrate #Socktober by posting daily photos to my story of whatever fun socks I’m wearing each day. It’s a fun bit I’ve been doing for the last couple years.
The movement has clearly caught on because now there is a boy named Jackson in Greenwich who is also celebrating #Socktober but his mission is to help as many people as possible.
He’s collecting socks all month long. This will be his 3rd annual sock drive. Over the last few years of doing it he has already collected and donated over 10,000 pairs of socks for local homeless shelters. Now with a new goal of getting even more sock, he has launched a website jacksonssocktober.com and an Instagram page @jacksons_socktober.
Love it! Go Jackson! And happy #Socktober everyone
