This post isn’t going to be easy at all. However, I’m going to go through all of the good news I posted this year and selected my top ten that really stood out for me. We’ll start with out usual image and then get to the news. The links in the date take you to the original post that I shared the news in.
Okay, so, allow me to go into the archives. And, again, all from this year. So, this will include Good Friday posts, Daily Good Stuff posts, and Daily Good News posts.
Derrick Hogan is a police officer who helped an 86 year old woman in a great way. First, the police station sent him to her house as she wasn’t able to drive. Relatives who usually helped her had passed, including her son. So, Hogan goes in and it turns out that the lady needed a way to get food from the local church.
Dogan decides that maybe the church wouldn’t help. So, he went to the grocery store himself and bought the little old lady food…with his own money. She gave him a list but he bought more than what was on the list. He bought her some tasty ham as well as decorations for her house.
Welp, don’t ya just hate when you have a funeral for a complete stranger? Well, that’s what happened in Philly as a service was held for a woman…a woman that was apparently still alive. Now, the casket had a body in it which was identified by relatives as the correct woman. Oops. The woman showed up two weeks after the funeral. Mmkay. Seems it was an honest mix-up; no faking death. But, in the end, there’s no details about how this all could’ve happened. What happened to the woman for people to believe she died? They thought she died…what did they say the cause of death was? Is she mentally stable (she showed up at a mental institution)? This is one of those stories I’ll be keeping an eye on so hopefully I’ll have an update for you soon.
Oh man…here’s a great story. Lego calls this kid a hero for his charity work. And, it’s Lego so you know legos are involved. They built a life size statue of the 10 year old. Stay classy, Lego.
Like I mentioned last week, Daily Good Stuff has moved to just Monday-Friday instead of the usual 7 days a week. Weekly News and Weekly Funnies round out the weekend so you’re still getting good stuff everyday. There is one issue I need to address. I told you how each day of DGS would have a certain video and image associated with it. On Sunday there would be a Demotivational photo and a short sermon. Tuesday was Meme and TV bloopers. I never did have anything slotted for Saturday so I have six days of material with only five days to work with. So I’m going to have to drop a video type and photo type: Funny signs and funny spoofs/parodies. Now, this doesn’t mean they are gone forever as they can still show up on Weekly Funnies. It just so happens that those two features were both on Friday so it’ll be easier to shift things around. Here’s the list you can expect to see now:
Images:
Monday: Demotivational
Tuesday: Comic strip
Wednesday: Meme
Thursday: GIF
Friday: Funny texts
Videos:
Monday: Short sermon
Tuesday: Stand-Up Comedian
Wednesday: TV bloopers
Thursday: Fails/Wins
Friday: Funny Pranks
And of course you have the scripture, quote, joke, good and weird/funny news. Did ya get all of that?
Let’s get started.
Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart. Psalm 119:111
Just to be clear, “Your” is referring to “God”.
Honor lies in honest toil. Grover Cleveland
Yup. She’ll end up frenching bit-er we better move on with that video:
Great stuff there. Okay now for a joke:
A plastic surgeon invented a radical new face lift procedure and was explaining it to a prospective patient. He told her, “I’ll install a special screw in the top of your skull. Your hair will cover it so it will be unnoticed. Whenever you need a little tuck, we’ll just tighten the screw a little,… and the wrinkles will disappear!” The woman was enthused and told the doctor to, “GO FOR IT!” The surgery was a resounding success, and the woman went home happy.
A few months later, the woman returned in a great state of agitation. She pointed to her face and said, “Just look at these bags under my eyes! Where the heck did they come from?” The surgeon looked at her closely and said, “Those aren’t BAGS under your eyes. Those are your breasts. And if you keep messing around with that screw,… pretty soon you’ll have a goatee!”
Oh…that is just SICK! If you didn’t get that one, then good for you. If you got it, high five! Let’s see what’s going on with the latest news, shall we?

It’s the inaugural post of Good Friday. I just share a few stories each week that make the world seem not as bad.
Our first one is about sisters who reunited with each other through Facebook. These types of stories prove that Facebook isn’t the bad thing; it’s how you use it that counts.
In the story, we see that the sisters were 130 miles apart. They had lost each other during WWII and were separated for 72 years. Now, the sisters are 88 and 82 and are looking for a brother who apparently could be in the U.S. (the sisters are in Bosnia). I hope they do find their brother, but considering their ages…ah never mind.
