Lead With Good News

"Soooo, good news-"


"What's the bad news?"


"What?"


"Not a single person starts a sentence about solely good news with that many Os in it. So whatever the bad news is, tell me now, the good can wait."


"Fine, we're heading towards a waterfall."


"YEAH, LEAD WITH THAT FIRST!"


He threw a backhand at me and before I could form a reply he began to paddle furiously, bringing the canoe to the shoreline before breaking it in accidently on rocks.


"OK. Good news?"


"Oh, that I know where we are, and after heading down an easily traversed waterfall we'll arrive."
