0:03 Kalaroga Shark Media. Hello Johnny Mack with five good news stories. A painting that had been looted by the Nazis during World War II has been turned over to the police in Argentina after a years long search. A Dutch investigative news outlet contacted the real estate agency, who called the cops. But when the cops showed up, the painting was gone. So one of the people at the house was a descendant of a Nazi party official who during the war transported large quantities of hard currency, diamonds, and artworks that had either been stolen by the Nazis or sold to the Nazis under duress from their Jewish owners. That party official fled to Switzerland that eventually moved to Argentina, bringing with him portrait of a lady. Anyway, so the cops show up. The descendant of the Nazi had tried to hide a portrait of a lady before the police raids.
0:58 When the cops showed up, there was just a picture of a horse on the wall, but walmarks and even a hook behind it showed that a painting may have been moved. A descendant of the original owner said it's encouraging that the painting is now with the authorities and that it's no longer missing. I'm relieved that it's now in a safe and secure place in Michigan. They have found the wreck of a mysterious ghost ship, the FJ. King sang in eighteen eighty six off the coast of Bailey's Harbor, Wisconsin, but for decades they haven't been able to find it because of conflicting reports from its captain and a lighthouse keeper. Fishermen have claimed to have netted parts of the wreck, but nobody could find it. A team of researchers from the Wisconsin Underwater Archaeology Association and the Wisconsin Historical Society located the ghost ship on June twenty eighth. You see what happened was the captain thought they were about five miles off the coast. The lighthouse keeper thought they were far closer. So the scientists set up a two mile grid around the area identified by the lighthouse guy, and using side scan soner they picked it up pretty quickly. One of the researchers said, a few of us had to pinch each other. After all the previous searches, we couldn't believe we had actually found it and so quickly. Congratulations to a twenty nine year old woman. She became the first to cross the United States on a skateboard. She was honoring her stepfather, whose ashes were carried in a necklace. Brooke on a skateboard three two hundred and twenty six miles from Santa Monica, California.
2:20 Her journey ended when she walked into the Atlantic Ocean on Virginia Beach after one hundred and nineteen days on the road. She lifted her skateboard over her head and couldn't help but think about her stepfather, Roger, who made it all happen. Late in life, brook stepfather had broken one of his vertebrae and became a quadriplegic. As his health got worse, stepfather and daughter talked about Brook's dream of cross country skateboarding. Originally, she had planned to push him across the finish line in a wheelchair. Roger passed away, Brooke had more motivation than ever. She raised money for Wings for Life, a nonprofit dedicated to spinal cord research. She shared her feet on social media and included a voicemail from Roger that she had randomly found Roger said in the voicemail, Everything's gonna be fine. We'll get through it.
3:02 Brent has become the first Canadian to receive an osteo odonto care prosthesis. Hopefully I got that right. That translates to a tooth in eye prosthetic. Brent's tooth has been surgically implanted into his eye to act as a lens fixture, which has enabled him to see again. He had already been through fifty surgical transplants and procedures. He had received a rare reaction to ibuprofen when he was thirteen that left severe burns on his cornea. Why a tooth, It's made of the hardest material produced by the body. A hole is drilled through the canine tooth and a high tech lens is fitted inside. The tooth is then attached to the cheek through the eye, and an aperture to the retina and optic nervous created so the light can enter the lens and reach it with glasses. He now has about twenty thirty vision and good news for me.
3:51 I'm gonna leave right now. My wife just texted me. This is a real thing that happened in Warren County, New Jersey, not too far from my lift. Thousands of bags of eminem can have been spilled across Interstate eighty. So I got to hop in the car because Johnny Mack likes his M and MS. Now, I'm not being a jerk. I don't do these stories when anybody's injured or something horrible happens. Everybody's fine, But apparently a tractor trailler carrying a full load of M and ms has been in an accident, and there were dozens of boxes of M and ms spilled onto the roadway. Again, I gotta go help the police clean this up. And you know I might pocket a couple long the way. And oh, so your five good news stories for today? And also why I'm late for work and not recording more episodes of the podcast Johnny Mack Loves em and M's all right, have a great day.
