humanity isn't a totally lost cause

as a pick-me-up in the midst of today's horror show in newtown, conn., i offer this:

the pictures brought a few smiles to my face, anyway.

 

Thanks, shockey. Millions of such deeds take place all over the world every day, far outnumbering acts of cruelty. We sometimes forget that.

 

The one about tiger bread is so wonderful. And the baby and cat together are as cute as puppies. Well, almost. There's this existentialism in that kid's eyes. Kind of shakes me.

Thanks for sharing. Buzzfeed is becoming an essential site.

 

thanks Shockey... I know my condo needs cleaning, but didn't realize how dusty it was...

 

Good work, Shockey.

 

Wow. Thanks.

Thank you, shockey. I'm crying like a baby.

 

This is great.

 

I don't know why but the Guatemalan girl got to me.

 

My sister's family was watching The Bourne Legacy tonight when I stopped by. It's a great movie, but I didn't stick around that one scene in the lab. That scene bugged me when I saw it in the theater. Didn't need to watch it today.
And pardon the attempted thread jack, but I was wondering what are the go-to movies when people need an emotional "pick-me-up."
I've always like The Princess Bride and Big Fish.
