Enough Of The Craziness Already!!!
The Good News 2011-11-30 18:46:53

Today's headlines read " Three dead in Thanksgiving incident."  "Teen may have died in a dare."  "Man sues couple, that he took hostage."  Enough of the craziness already.  I think it is time for a culture change.   If our young generation is to survive then the change has to start from within.  Therefore, instead of filling the news with negativity we should also focus on positive things that will challenge the idle minds  of our brilliant children.

If you have a positive story that you would like to share, please email me at marcus@marcusaustin.net.  Let's talk about some "Good News For A Change!"
