Daily Good News 26: Donations for Toys for Tots; Predicting the Next Global Epidemic

It’s Friday and you know what that means. At least I hope you do because I have no freaking idea. What I do know is that I have some good news for you. So come on in and take a seat. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride.

First we have some odd news that, if things work out, would be in the good news category. Scientists appear to have found a way to predict global epidemics. This can lead to stopping serious diseases from spreading too far and out of control. The link has an awful lot of pictures. SO MANY PICTURES.

And then, a pod full of toys for the Toys for Tots organization was broken into and emptied. So, the local community came together and have sent in donations of toys.

The Danvers Fire Department, which annually collects Toys For Tots with a drop-off spot at the High Street station, went into action. Firefighters and a fire engine showed up at Walmart on Saturday and Sunday collecting donated toys. And they went around the town picking up donations from several locations, including the Police Station on Ash Street, where people had left a growing mountain of donations.

That’s just one instance of donations collected. More in the link, y’all!

See ya!

*realizes he can’t see he viewers*

Uh…farewell!

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.

Sleep texting is becoming a big deal. Man, the human body call be crazy sometimes.

So we got a guy offering a homeless man…who apparently is pretty darn smart…to code.  It looks like this could grow into a diamond in the rough.
