The children of Fort Campbell Mahaffey Middle School will indeed have a new construction project to look forward to in the coming year - just maybe not that new schoolhouse they were expecting. Instead, they might get a border wall - or a fence, or barbed wire, or something like that - about 1,000 miles southwest of their school, which sits on a military base straddling the Kentucky-Tennessee line. "I would say it's better for the middle school kids in Kentucky to have a secure border," Mr Graham said on CBS News' Face the Nation.

Now that the whole world has gone digital, VHS tapes feel like a relic from another time. But for the few people who still own a VCR, there's something magical about their tactile quality, the way you have to lift the lid and blow on the tape before watching the machine eat it, and the way the grainy footage crackles like a low fire.Nowadays, no one makes VHS players anymore, and they can only be bought on eBay. Which is probably why this heartwarming letter from an elderly gentleman on how much his VCR means to him is currently going viral.The 86-year-old wrote that he had recently found several VHS tapes and wanted to see what was on them when he realized he had nothing to play them on. So he went on eBay and found a great offer, and wrote the seller a beautiful letter about all of the memories it yielded once he remembered how to work it."I watched tapes of my retirement party from 25 years ago which I had never seen before," he wrote. "Jeez, we were young. Then a tape of my wedding with all the family and friends, many of which are no longer around. Then skiing trips, kids growing up, travels, and most importantly the gentle maturing of my family. Each one more than the last. All thanks to your generous selling of the VHS player."The letter was shared by Twitter user @OriginalYoni, and it got over 62,000 retweets in just two days.

I put some action figures on eBay, a mom bought 2 but not the other 28 I had. She mssged to say her autistic son was excited to get them. She wished she could have bought more. I sent her all 30 of them, got a phone call, she thanked me and cried.
