This week’s Kindness Challenge comes directly from the comedian Ellen DeGenres: Be funny but be kind. Ellen states, “Most comedy is based on getting a laugh at somebody else's expense. And I find that that's just a form of bullying in a major way. So I want to be an example that you can be funny and be kind, and make people laugh without hurting somebody else's feelings.”.
The track team will be heading to Durand tonight. Early release at 2:20
