On the Road


Every Friday, the CBS evening news concludes with a segment called On the Road.  It's almost always a "feel good" story designed to make you feel like maybe the world isn't so bad after all.
The other, darker, side of On the Road, this week concerned the South Texas Trail Ride, currently on the way to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.  Two of their horses died this week after someone put antifreeze in their drinking water at an overnight stop in San Antonio.  Police are treating it as an intentional poisoning.
Yesterday, the CBS story was about an entire neighborhood that is taking ASL classes so they can communicate with a cute and outgoing toddler who is deaf.
Just to maintain our sanity, we need a lot more stories about cute little deaf girls and a lot fewer about dead horses.
