The GOOD NEWS Thread
 
Sometimes, I wonder why I watch the news.....in our sensationalized world, it's a bit overwhelming at times.....

So I thought it might be refreshing to share GOOD NEWS.....these are the stories that warm our hearts....good people doing good deeds....'paying-it-forward' stories....heroes....

ENJOY!
:angel:

Remember that convenience store owner ~ was it in NY? ~ who stood up to the robber? And when he did, the robber went down to her knees.....and the shop owner gave him a loaf of bread and $40.

WELL.

The robber just wrote the store owner....it seems he got his act together....his wife just had a baby, he got a job and sent the store owner a fifty dollar bill, and thanked him for helping him.

I love that story!

What an awesome idea for a thread, Diva! I haven't heard any good news today, but I'll let you know when I do. :)

OHHHHHHHHHHH and you ladies didn't tell me ya'll liked Wal Mart :redcard:

Gemme 12-06-2009 09:48 AM

Wal-Mart is the home of Satan and his minions, but it's cheap, and this girl is on a budget.

I imagine the relationship of Wal-Mart to its customers like this ----> :sado:

My good news for today? I don't have to get up before the sun for ONE MONTH, starting tomorrow!!!! Woot! I can sleep in and stay up late (night owl here) and get started on my holiday :loveletter: without falling asleep with the pen in my hand. :1femme:

Oh, and it snowed, but only a little bit and only at Wal-Mart. :furious:

Have You heard about Nonja (pronounced: NOHN~ya), the orangutan in the Vienna Zoo, who was given a camera and has been taking some neat pictures of herself and her buddies? She has learned that, when she twists the knob, a raisin pops out.....she gets the raisins....but we get these neat pictures!

I've been disappointed in Tiger Woods and so, I've found this kid. Bonus? He's only 2 years old, so he's got YEARS to go before he thinks girls are not filled with cooties!

Anonomous donor feeds more than a thousand. link

What impresses me the most is that the donor apparently saved for several years with the express intention of providing this feast! :cheer:
