A Little Bit of Awesome: 1/16/19 Edition

Spider-Man = Awesome. ‘Nuff said.


Nike unveiled their new pair of self-lacing shoes, and not gonna lie, they look pretty awesome. They’re called the “Adapt BB,” they cost $350, so there’s that. And you can control them with an app. The future is now!


I want one. Of course I think I’d need a few more leaf blowers to move my back side across the snow. Just sayin’.


In spite of what you may see around you, there are still awesome people out there. Like Mr. Peoples. He’s 62 and he who works at an elementary school in North Carolina. His car broke down last month, and he spent Christmas Eve in the hospital. So people at the school banded together, presented him with a check for $2,500, and gave him a new SUV that someone donated. Awesome. Check out his full story RIGHT HERE.
