Default The Good News Is......

Unemployment is at a 26 year high. The stock market feel over 200 points yesterday. Consumer confidence plunged last month. If Afganistan young people are dying on both sides.

The good news is....What? You tell us . It doesn't have to be of worldwide or national importance, What is the good news where you live or even in your personal life. This isn't a debate, just something to brighten the Independence Day weekend or the weekend in general for members in other countries. So, The Good News Is.........

Andy Murray is through to the semi finals in Wimbledon. If he wins he'll be the first Briton to reach the finals since 1938.

(Oh..and Congrats, Funkytown)

I made 10,000 dollars today on the stock market (VSM: vitual stock market) If only I had invested real money! So despite stock market plunges you can still make money...So good news If I were in a virtual world.

My sister saw him play last week. She was in London and got tickets. She saw Roger, Venus, Serena, Andy, Andy, and Novak.

We're actually watching the Federer-Haas match right now.

The good news is that tomorrow is the 4th of July!!!


Also, yesterday I took my 5 year old on a date and on the last hole of mini golf he got a hole in one and won a free game!


The really good news is that the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk has 75 cent night during the summer, Monday and Tuesdays after 5pm. Rides, hot dogs, drinks and cotton candy are 75 cents. We'll go almost every week.
