12/30 Commentary

December 30th – Counter Measures

Since all the news outlets are bombarding us with all the gloom and doom top stories for 2009, I want to counter their negativity with our top great and good stories of 2009. Between everyone in the group, I’m certain we can far outnumber the gloom and doom with great and positive stories. Here is what I propose. Send me your good and positive news today, as many as you want, for 2009, and I will compile them and send them out tomorrow along with posting them on my blog and on Facebook. We can show the world through technology just how many great and positive things happened just in our small little group.

Here are just a very few of my positive stories for the year.
