Dear Reader,
2020, 2021 and 2022 has been an absolute nightmare, but it also has had its moments. In the spirit of ECHO’s theme this month (celebration), I’ve compiled a list (of sorts) of all the events worth celebrating and all the events not worth celebrating (you decide which category each event falls into). Also, to be a tad bit more extravagant, this has to be sung to the tune of Billy Joel’s 1989 song “We Didn’t Start the Fire”! You’ve either listened to this song before or you have questionable music taste. Nevertheless, if you haven’t heard this song, it’s not too late to start now.
So here’s Maybe We Did Start the Fire?
