So many news items these days are so hurtful and divisive. But today, to brighten your weekend, I thought I’d share a couple of feel-good stories, from the ridiculous to the sublime. The first is from L.A. – see on Instagram, here – where Lady Gaga’s two French bulldogs were returned unharmed after a dog-napping last week in which a dog walker was shot and seriously injured.
Koji & Gustav @ beach. Reward for their return was a cool half-mil.

The second story comes from half a world away on the border between Kosovo and Serbia. That’s where a man-made lake is being renamed and centuries-old tensions are being eased by a certain former POTUS. I’ll leave the lake’s new name out of it. But you are welcome to get the full story here if you wish. Ya just gotta love it when the flash-point for so much national bitterness becomes a touchstone for international reconciliation.
WHAT???
Happy weekend, folks!
