This story is pretty awesome.

You guys here about Batkid?

The live updates are fun to scroll through. They got him a freakin' Lamborghini in black with Batman decals to play the Batmobile and they're estimating they had 7,000 people either involved or present at the bigger events for the kid, when they were hoping to get around 200 or so. Just freakin' amazing that people can still come together on that large of a scale for something that's literally just about making a kid's dream come true.

Seriously cool.

Ya that is super cute. I was bummed out earlier cause I learned one of our agents died today at the ripe ol' age of 49z. Reading that cheered me up a bit.

I saw that on the news this morning. Really awesome and it actually brightened my morning before a 1.75 hour commute to a satellite office. Yeah I was feeling sorry for myself before I saw it.

Really awesome stuff
