TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: We’ve got a real life Footloose happening in Norwalk
It all started last year when the Junior Prom for Norwalk High School got canceled because of COVID and this ongoing pandemic. Then this past spring the prom got canceled for a second season in a row. Fast forward to Fall 2021 and Norwalk High School’s senior class president Olivia Mattera had enough and wasn’t going to let it happen again.
Olivia and some of her classmates went in front of the Board of Education last week and pleaded their case about the decision to cancel yet another upcoming dance next month. They made some pretty valid points about students mental health over the course of the last 18 months. There has been a lot of depression, anxiety, and kids just feeling disconnected from their friends and peers. There’s nothing like a school dance to raise spirits and bring everyone together right?
Right! It worked! A few days ago Superintendent Alexandra Estrella broke the news to the students that they will in fact be able to have their upcoming dance. As long as they follow specific health guidelines put in place to keep everyone safe. Which is what most events are doing now anyway.
Go Olivia!! Well done. Dance on, kids.
If you missed it this morning The Anna and Raven Show had Olivia on the air to talk about the whole thing. Here’s the podcast of their interview with her:

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why do pilots have to always eat different in-flight meals?
This is one of those weird things you never think about but totally makes sense. Almost every airline requires their pilot and copilot to eat different meals while in-flight. The reason? In case there’s something wrong with the food they can’t have a scenario where both pilots can’t function to fly.
Smart!

Raven’s Earth Animal Pet Pals – Meet Zorro!
Zorro is looking for his person and being one of the longest residents at the shelter, he can’t wait to find his furever home! He is a 70 lb., four-year-old shepherd mix – we actually had him DNA tested and his results were quite interesting! Surprisingly, Zorro is 25% German Shepherd, 25% Catahoula Leopard, 25% American Staffordshire Terrier, 12.5% Boxer and 12.5% other. What a combo!
This handsome boy enjoys being active, spending time outside hiking or playing, and going on adventures. He loves to run around the yard but also enjoys cuddling on the couch. He already knows basic commands and is very smart! He takes treats gently and would be a highly motivated student for more training.
Zorro will require an experienced adult-only home as an only pet. Adopters that will provide further enrichment, training, and exercise are a must. If you can open your heart and give this special dog the family he deserves, please email [email protected] to set up an appointment to meet him.

Anna is a big fan of Halloween decorations and this year her theme is spiders! But you won’t believe what she plans on building to put on the top of her house! (:30)
What if Facebook never came back? Facebook and Instagram were down for 6 hours yesterday and it made Anna and Raven wonder what the world would look like if it never returned! (3:37)

How do you feel about mustaches? Some people find them creepy, but Raven is pretty sure that the contractor he hired uses his mustache as an intimidation technique! (10:55)
Where do you stash your money? The Pandora Papers have revealed all the myriad places that the world’s elite hide their money, but Raven has a hiding place with a surprisingly feminine touch… (18:42)
Do you in a haunted house? The house that inspired the horror movie “The Conjuring” just sold, but one caller’s real life experience with a demon on her baby monitor is even scarier! (29:38)
Lots of people believe that no major decisions should be made during Mercury Retrograde and Kate is definitely one of them! But her husband Ben thinks that putting off the sale of their home based on astrology is going way too far! Whose side are you on? (40:33)

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Couple strikes it rich while on vacation in a State Park
You just never know when you’re going to strike it rich.
Like this couple from California who went on a trip to Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas a couple weeks ago. It’s the only diamond mine in the U.S. that’s open to the public. They were hoping to at least find something… and in just 40 minutes of being there, they struck it rich!
They came across a 4.38-carat yellow diamond which is the largest gemstone discovered at the site this year. They haven’t found out how much it’s worth yet, but I’m guessing it’s a lot of money.
