Is there anyone who reads this here blog that's unaware of my status as the unabashed King of Sappiness? If there is, this little item should get the point across: high school students in suburban Chicago give a beloved, struggling cafeteria worker a car and presents for her grandkids, saving Christmas.

Two slightly Grinchy notes on the above:
  1. Only straight, honest sap gets to me, not fake, overwrought glurge. And I only like it when I stumble on it myself, so please don't send me any.
  2. Normally I'd never link to a story in what my late grandfather Cas always referred to as the "Scum-Crimes," but the Trib version of the story requires registration, and what the hell, it's Christmas.
