Some Good News Would Be Nice

I would like to blog about something, anything, uplifting, but can not seem to find a whole lot. Instead, the news is covered with such great stories as these:

A blast in a Georgia sugar refinery has at least 3 dead with 3 more missing.

Another shooting on a college campus; this time in Louisiana. (3 more dead.)

A shooting just outside of St. Louis, MO at a city council meeting. (5 dead and a couple more in critical condition. )

Soldiers returning from Iraq are charged with murdering another returned soldier and this may not be the only one they've killed. (This is apparently an old story that I just heard this morning. )

The Bush Administration is still screwing over the soldiers it professes to love and appreciate. (Which probably caused the story just above this one)

And

Per the American people, Bush and Congress stink! (Ok, maybe that is, sort of, good news.)

At least it is Friday! Have a frosty, cold one for me and I will do the same for you!

Yep, it all stinks.

But I have some personal good news to share with you - my bone scan was excellent. Cancer has not spread there.

Definitely worth a 'woo-hoo"!!!

Hi. Having seen you so often on Andante's site, today, 14 Feb, I finally got around to visiting your site. You seem not to have put anything on it since the 6th. Maybe you're like me -- more a visitor than a stay-at-home -- online that is!
