Daily Good News 28: Man Gives $20k, Employees Return Lost Wallet, and Athlete Overcomes Odds

We have yet another batch of goodness. Instead of an image; I’m going to share a song. Mixing it up a little. This is a song that has been one of my favorite for years. It’s really helped me emotionally in a few cases too. Listen to it without tapping your feet. I DARE you.

I guess I’m all alone here? I’m the only one that likes this thing? Meh, well you came for good news anyway, right?

First, we have a bunch of good employees. A man left his wallet in the restaurant. It had $2,500 in it. That’s quite a bit of cash. Anyway, here’s what happened next:

We gotta survive the rest of the week, y’all. We got this.

Yo…my mom does this to me all the time. All. OF THE. TIME. Terrible. I’m not kidding.

A man who had spent his whole life in the desert visited a friend. He’d never seen a train or the tracks they run on. While standing in the middle of the RR tracks, he heard a whistle, but didn’t know what it was. Predictably, he’s hit and is thrown, ass-over-tea-kettle, to the side of the tracks, with some minor internal injuries, a few broken bones, and some bruises.
After weeks in the hospital recovering, he’s at his friend’s house attending a party. While in the kitchen, he suddenly hears the teakettle whistling. He grabs a baseball bat from the nearby closet and proceeds to batter and bash the teakettle into an unrecognizable lump of metal. His friend, hearing the ruckus, rushes into the kitchen, sees what’s happened and asks the desert man, “Why’d you ruin my good tea kettle?”
The desert man replies, “Man, you gotta kill these things when they’re small.”

That was good.

Next time you go grocery shopping, it could end up being paid for. Kinda. Just look:

It appears a kind soul has been leaving cash in various stores around the Salem, Ore., area, including a Fred Meyer grocery store and a Wal-Mart, where customers have so far found more than $2,000 worth of $100 bills. They have reported finding $100 bills inside egg cartons, candles and inside boxes of cookies and ice cream cones at multiple locations.

Yup. The whole story is here.

Okay that’s it. Enjoy your weekend!
