Yesterday was Animal Day on Good News Now

I do not know why this happens. Maybe it is just that once I get a story topic in my head as I look through the hundreds of stories a day I scan and read that is what I see… the topic of the day. Sometimes it is diet stories or weird people doing unusual things… or music. Yesterday it was animals.

We discussed that for while and she told me her favorite news story that week. It was about a Panda in China. She told me she AWAYS reads the animal stories. As the webmaster I listened because I want to know what people like to read. I think of her whenever I post those ever so interesting animal stories…
