Scholarships For New Grads, A Record Setting Guinea Pig, And Money In A Free Couch
A Boston suburb is using some of its leftover stimulus money to help young people heading off to college. The mayor gave a speech at an awards ceremony on Tuesday, and people expected him to announce the winner of a $1,000 scholarship. But instead, he said EVERYONE won it. All the students and parents in the auditorium went nuts.
A guinea pig named Molly that has her own tiny basketball hoop just broke a world record by doing four slam dunks in 30 seconds. And she might break it again soon. Her owners say
she’s done twice that many before.
A woman in California got a free couch and matching chair on Craigslist . . . found $36,000 hidden in the cushions . . . and gave it back. The guy who put it there recently passed away,
and his family had no idea. The woman had also been looking for a fridge, so they gave her $2,200 of the money to buy a new one.
