Never posted to this room before, but this is just too amazing.
Not sure how many of you remember - this girl was grabbed at gunpoint from her SLC home last summer - about the same time some other kids were missing from So Cal.
9 months later - she's found. Unreal. Hope is always alive...I'm not close to these people, I don't live in SLC, I don't have kids - but to see this end with this girl being re-united with her family, after 9 months - its amazing.
Very cool.
Here's a link to Drudge, and the story. The Drudge headline will change throughout the next few days so it may not be at the top when you get there.

PS: I was just thinking about hope. That's powerful stuff. I've loved this song since '77.... I found myself humming it as I read all the news stories this afternoon.
Hope
(John Woloschuk)
Hope is like a lighthouse keeper's beam
Hope the master cobbler of our dreams
For Hope believes in desert streams
The mightiest of stars
The microcosm in a jar
Vast or small they all revolve on Hope
Hope the guardian angel of the dove
Hope a gift of guidance from above
For Hope is the heart in mother's love
No plans could be conceived
No ships could fare the seas
For there would be no courage were it not for Hope
Now the path before us lies before our very eyes
Don't you see?
And it leads up to the gateway - lead me through
Don't you see....
Then come and take my hand, raise up your head
And dry your eyes - for up ahead I see
A ray of peace - shining on me
So let us feel Hope
And feel the sunrise in our minds
To give Hope is to enlighten all mankind
Ah but lose Hope and life seems black as blind
When faith gives way to fear
When motivation disappears
All is lost if one abandons Hope
All is lost
If one abandons Hope...
