Churchmouse Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 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.........

Guest Alana Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
