Good News First

All the best ideas have already been thought of...but not necessarily perfected.

We were watching the news last week and, after learning of more deaths in Afghanistan, an oil spill in BC, another potential election, and two seperate transport accidents, we decided that no news is better then just hearing the bad news and shut it off.

Over the weekend we got to thinking that maybe there is a market for a news show that only shows the good news. Simple enough; we only show stories with positive endings and thereby paint the regular news as the "Bad News". One channel shows our programme at 6 right before by the regular news and another channel shows it at 6:30 right after the regular news. That way everyone is happy. I actually thought we were on to something and I found my purpose in life. Of course someone found it before me.

I was actually intrigued enough with the idea that it was the first thing I looked up when I got to the office this morning, and sure enough, several people beat me to it. This looks like the best of the bunch.

There is still hope though...I think there might still be a market for professionally reported good news. I get the impression those sites are maintained by mental patietns on Prozac or old women with houses full of cats.

I'm Simon Pacey and that the Good News.

See it writes itself....

Pace out.
