Sometimes, when it comes to the content on Medium Happiness, I feel like a nutritionally clueless/lazy parent who only feeds their child junk food. But then to make up for it, there are days like this one, when by chance some produce at the internet-news market catches my eye and I decide to go home and cook up some [...]

Thanks CNN.COM.

This song was in my head for months–literally–before I finally heard it a few days ago in some movie credits, took note of some of the lyrics, and with the aid of the Googles, tracked down within 2 minutes. For all intents and purposes, Spirit In The Sky is the only song for which Greenbaum [...]

PHOENIX (Reuters) – Authorities in Arizona are stepping up a program to put mosquito-gobbling minnows into the stagnant pools of foreclosed or abandoned homes to prevent an outbreak of West Nile virus. Read the whole article.

So, I am out in Chicago; happy to report I didn’t get the flu while I’ve been here, unlike last year.
Anyhow. I didn’t plan on blogging today but I found this amazingly pitiful story on Cnn.com and I had to share it with you all.
A wretched woman in San Francisco has taken it upon herself [...]
