Of Good Report - January

This newsletter is to help spread the Good News of the World. With all the bad news that is everpresent in today's media, here is our small attempt to make sure the Good News doesn't get lost.

MINNEAOTA, MN
Self serving and serving all at the same time. That is what one Minneaota man is doing.

Darrell Nelson wanted to lose some weight. 50 pounds to be exact. He struggled sticking to a diet and exercise program. That is when a new idea struck!
Darrell decided to offer his services as a lawn mower in order to force himself to get the exercise he felt he needed to lose weight. After putting an ad in the online 'Craigslist' Darrell is now mowing 5 lawns a week not including his own.
Darrell says his life has changed dramatically since he started this new program. "My life has been turned upside down, man, unbelievable," Darrell said. He has even been approached by women asking for dates.
His generosity isn't unlimited however, "I won't bag and I won't do any trimming." Darrell said.

AMERICAN FILM INSTITUTE
The AFI has come out with it's list of the top 100 most inspiring films of all time. It's a Wonderful Life, the thought provoking Christmas film, tops the list. Other films that made the list include, Hoosiers, Sound of Music and Rudy. See if your favorite inspirational movie made the list.

MONTREAL, CANADA
Kyle MacDonald went out on a limb. A year long internet journey so bizarre it has to be true.

A year ago the blogger from Montreal decided to try and trade to get himself a house. He started with one red paper clip. Garnering more and more attention along the way MacDonald finally got his wish and was rewarded with a home in Kipling, Saskatchewan. In some very strange twists MacDonald traded for a fish shaped pen, a snowmobile, a walk on role in a Hollywood movie and even an afternoon with rocker Alice Cooper!
Now who said life wasn't sometimes stranger than fiction?
