Bad News with Happy Music/Daily Check-Ins

Back to the grind.



After another busy weekend, here we are…at work. Again.



Not only that, but I must have slept wrong and my shoulder is all out of whack and in a ton of pain.



Had a very successful charity golf outing on Friday. Spent Saturday morning doing laundry & mowing the lawn…ran a few errands…went to the Speedway for the Smash-O-Rama. Then we had another parade yesterday with the Oktoberfest Grenadiers.



I'm pooped!



In the news this morning, a news anchor from Iowa quits live on-air, a new Miss Wisconsin is crowned, an airline passenger bit another person on the plane and was allegedly trying to fight everyone on board, another idiot tourist got too close to a bison at Yellowstone Park,



In sports, the Brewers dropped two out of three to the Braves this weekend but managed to get a 9-4 win yesterday, Pat Murphy is getting a couple of procedures in the next few weeks, Team USA beat Australia on Friday & is on to the round of 32 in the World Cup, Corey Heim got his first NASCAR win yesterday at the Naval Base, and Wyndham Clark won his second U.S. Open this weekend after leading the tournament wire to wire.



We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and Brian started watching a couple of shows on Netflix this weekend, including "Michael Jackson: The Verdict" and "Trust Me: The False Prophet"



Are Dogs > Cats? Some new research may show that cats don't relieve stress as well as dogs can.



Elsewhere in sports, Brady Tkachuk is headed to Florida to play with his brother, Jonathan Toews retires from hockey, a former U.S. Olympian is arrested after allegedly vandalizing the Reflecting Pool in D.C., and a fan climbs over the fence at a NASCAR race to have a chat with one of the drivers.



An injured sea turtle was saved by some vets and is now back in the ocean and doing well…a man in Louisiana heroically saved a family that was in danger of drowning, and a woman who recently got married was walked down the aisle by the man who received her father's heart in an organ donation.



We talked about some of our snacking habits, and we discussed the new number to shoot for when you're trying to retire.



And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about an 85 year-old man who was racing his Nissan while smoking a cigarillo, the Governor of Massachusetts declared haggis "legal", a food delivery robot that got caught in a S.W.A.T. operation, a #FloridaWoman who assaulted a man with her pickleball paddle, and another #FloridaMan tried to steal a med-vac copter.

Back to the grind.
