Great Stuff: This is True
Published: September 23, 2005
Earlier this week I talked about Kidwarmers, an excellent free weekly newsletters to which I have been subscribed for years.
Kidwarmers deserves a mention in Good News Blog’s Great Stuff because it fits in so nicely: the stories are true and uplifting.
Randy Cassingham’s This is True is similar in nature. It is guranteed to put a smile on your face when you receive your weekly issue.
In This is True Randy paraphrases weird yet true news stories. How come? “Truth is stranger than fiction as fiction has to make sense”.
Before signing up (free!) you can have a look at some samples or browse the online online archive. Of course, in the end it is Randy himself who, in his unique style, best answers your question; why should I subscribe?.
Loads of stories, including ones that never made it into any newsletter, have been bundled by Randy in excellent, keep re-reading and laughing books such as This is True: Deputy Kills Man With Hammer : And 500 Other Bizarre-But-True Stories and Headlines from the World’s Press and This Is True: Cost of Being Poor Rising and 500 Other Bizarre-but-True Stories.
To finish this recommendation, here’s an example of just one out of the many stories each email contains:

The True Stella Awards : Honoring real cases of greedy opportunists, frivolous lawsuits, and the law run amok
