Would anyone like some good news? Thought so.

The other night, NBC anchor Brian Williams made a plea to viewers: "We're looking for good news."

Since then, he's been flooded with e-mails. Here's the story.

Another exciting update: Max has a new feature on his communication device which he surprised us with today. It makes farting noises. I guess the speech teacher at school must have recently uploaded it. I was in the middle of making dinner when Max pressed the button and started cracking up at the sound. I wasn't looking and automatically said, "Dave!!!"

But, no. It was the Dynavox.

Happy Saturday!

    Max is so lucky to have a "cool" teacher!! That is SO neat!!!! We're awfully fond of the good ole fart noise around here, the PULL MY FINGER jokes, and the "Better oil that door hinge, something's squeaking" type jokes!

    Max is such a little comedian! Just imagine all of the fun places he can put his new feature to good use - while standing in line at the grocery store, in the middle of class... oh, this one is going to be fun! Ah, the bodily functions stage - I think it lasts from 4 to 97 for boys. Keep up the potty humor, Max!
