The Shark Deck. I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. Hey,
good news. If you're a pet that hates flying coach, I'm with you.
Well, you can now fly Luxury K nine jets as a luxury Gulf
Stream jet that seats no more than ten passengers with their pets and offers routes
between the East coast of the US London, Harris and Lisbon. Tickets.
The cost and round eighty five hundred dollars and includes space for one human and
their pet, as well as private terminal fees, luggage and taxes. The
service is mostly for cats and dogs, but if you're a parrot or a
rabbit, you're welcome as long as your paperwork is in order. Speaking of
airports, Joshua Clark, he's fifteen, he reached his dream of being an
airport announcer. He recently did this at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport. He expertly
called customers to the boarding gate. He told the easy Jet passengers one and
where to go, what priority boarding customers should do, and some extra details
about the flight. At the end of his announcement, josh got a round
of applause from the assembled at staff and customers. Connor McSorley is one of
the teachers at Saint Vincent's School, and he told the Daily Mirror it was
a fantastic experience that Josh and the other pupils will never forget. I can't
say enough good things about Liverpool John Lennon airport staff and the VIP treatment they
gave us throughout truly amazing. The smile on his face when he finished the
boarding call and all the passengers clapped something. It'll stay with me too.
There's a real life for a punzol of sorts, she says. Men keep
offering her like a quarter million dollars to cut her four feet long hair.
Jasmine Larson. She's in her late twenties. Her hair's four foot three inches
long. She said, I always like long hair since I was a little
girl. I always felt sad after getting haircut, so I let my hair
grow after my last one in late twenty seventeen. Many people want to know
my hair growth secret. I keep telling them it's a combination of things like
sticking to a consistent haircare routine. She says. Some people give her a
hard time. They call me selfish to keep all this hair when there's people
with cancer and need a wig. It's funny to me that they accused me
of being a gross narcissist for having long hair. She also hears from men.
She says, the hair fetish community is pretty big on Instagram. I
used to receive a lot of requests to cut my hair from money. I've
also received many dms from guys wanting personal hair videos for a sum of money.
Let's move on, Nice job, Tyler Perry. He's donating two point
seven five million dollars to older homeowners in Atlanta this to help ensure that they
get to stay in their homes. Perry reached out to the mayor and he
wanted to provide assistance for residents on fixed incomes who could lose their homes as
a results of rising real estate taxes. Perry's going to cover any increase in
taxes over the next twenty years for one hundred low income older residents. He's
already donated seven hundred fifty grand for the first year to cover the back taxes
and any increase in property taxes, and he's pledged five hundred thousand dollars each
year for the next four years to ensure the residents don't pay any more in
taxes. Nice job, Tyler Perry. I am Patty Callahan Henry, I
