TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Community rallies together to help pizza delivery guy who saved kids from burning home

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Community rallies together to help pizza delivery guy who saved kids from burning home

This story out of Indiana from last week was absolutely insane. A 25-year-old pizza delivery guy named Nick Bostic happened to see a burning house while driving his route and no one was there to help yet. He decided to run in to the burning house over and over to to save four kids and an 18-year-old who were stuck inside until the fire crews showed up

As you can imagine he suffered some pretty bad injuries while being a hero. So now a GoFundMe page was set up to support him and his medical bills. It’s raised over $550,000 so far! Unbelievable.

Here is a video of Nick and the whole story.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why do people wear wedding rings on the fourth finger of their left hand?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why do people wear wedding rings on the fourth finger of their left hand?

With weddings a lot of the traditions have been set in stone for hundreds of years and we just all go along with them. But sometimes it’s neat to dig into why they started.

As for the wedding ring placement, left hand fourth finger. The story goes all the way back to the ancient romans and Egyptians. They believed at the time that the left hand fourth finger was a direct connection to the heart. Meaning the ring should go on that finger since that’s where all your emotion filters through.

Obviously over time with advancements in the medical world we learned more about the heart’s function. But the tradition stuck even up until present day.
