Remember that Christmas depression?
On the one hand, this is incredibly depressing:
There's a GoFundMe set up for the family of an Idaho lineman who died yesterday near here, falling into the Columbia River from a transmission line. Pretty sobering to see this guy was my age, and leaves a wife and five kids. https://t.co/qQHTW6lFBu

On the other hand, I’m more than a little cheered up by the GoFundMe page: right now, they’re at $119,205 out of a $25,000 goal. Maybe there are good people in the world after all.
(Hattip to Dean Bradley. And, no, I’m not asking y’all to donate, but please feel free to do so if the spirit moves you.)
