Curves Moves to a New Building..

This morning I opened my paper only to be greeted with this headline.

The thing I am having the most trouble with is why is this a headline? Why is it that this is the best thing the newspaper can talk about? Do we not have bigger problems in this area? If you cant think of any let me point some out....


Our infrastructure is failing at many different levels. A high number of young people are viewing suicide as a logical choice.But, at least you know that Curves is in a new building. People cant afford gasoline, groceries, health care, medication, or much less a vacation.
But, at least you know that Curves is in a new building.Basic services like public safety are being threatened by irresponsible public officials and lack of proper budgeting and oversight. But, at least you know that Curves is in a new building. Corruption is being swept under the rug at all levels of the local government.Teen pregnancy is at a drastically high rate. Kids are dieing from illegal drugs like heroin all over our streets. But, at least you know that Curves is in a new building.


Yes, things in this community may be on the down turn. Faith can no longer be placed in public officials, your money may not be safe in any bank, our youth is being misguided from the get go, but hey look at the bright side:
At least you know that Curves is in a new building.
