Good vs Evil

I often have small periods of time at work in which there is no work to do. I fill these gaps with CNN.com. I have a kind of love/hate relationship with the news. I love it when it makes me feel good about the world and I hate it when it makes me feel like our future is too bleak to comprehend. And so, for your reading pleasure (just in case you're board at work too), I give you:

The Good:

• Fraggle Rock is going to be made into a movie! I grew up watching Fraggle Rock and then was really excited as a teenager when whoevertheywere did a punk cover of the theme song, so heaven knows I'll be seeing that movie!
• A Colorado town awoke to streets filled with intact pumpkins. Hooray for the Halloween spirit and not making a huge mess with smashed pumpkins!
• A manatee swam to Memphis. Experts are a little confused about why he chose Memphis, but I know a fellow Elvis fan when I see one.
  

The Bad:

• The Chinese are refusing free hugs. What is this world coming to??
• Donald Trump is in trouble for erecting an American flag in his yard. Say it with me: Huh?
• Tupperware has become an art form. Heaven help us all.

Ok so obviously I avoided posting the articles about death, politics, and Iraq (the fact that people refuse hugs is depressing enough). Hope everyone is having a most excellent Wednesday!
