Good News: New Jobs Now Tout TVs Made In America

From Denny:  With 31 million new jobs required to get this economy back on track it's good news to finally see an electronics manufacturer come back to America.  It's easily been at least a couple of decades since American TV manufacturers closed shop and either moved overseas for cheaper labor or, worse, went out of business.

Someone new is willing to take the gamble and hire American workers once again.  These larger TVs are assembled by American workers in hard hit Detroit, Michigan.  They just started up production in March and are competitive with China.

Video: Transforming Inner City Blight

From Denny: I really like these kind of stories where people go into inner cities and turn city blight back into thriving communities by building new AND affordable homes. Listen to their story of those who did well for themselves and then came back to give back to the community! From NBC News' Making a Difference segment.

This Week: Roundup of Sunday Funnies - Sanfords GOP Outreach and More!

Mark Sanford -- He's Back! (Photo credit: Mike Licht, NotionsCapital.com)

From Denny: With so much seriousness in the world these days, we all can use a good laugh. Besides, who can stay up late to watch these guys when we have to start our work week? :)

Here's a roundup of the late-night comics, enjoy. Also, was laughing over at YouTube yesterday and included this little video gem.

Update April 2013:  Since Mark Sanford is crazy enough to step back into politics after trespassing and snooping around in his now four years later ex-wife's home, we might as well give another round of the jokes that drove him out of office in the first place.  This guy is such a loser and, women, well, we have no use for such a manipulative loser.  What was this guy thinking?  Really?
