Demi Moore's millions of Tweets have finally saved a human life.

After a short furlough, Monday Morning Good News is back, brimming with happy and clenched tightly in the jaws of the Joy Kitten, the purring spirit of goodwill, and attacking plastic shopping bags:

As the law of probabilities would dictate, Demi Moore's millions of Tweets have finally saved a human life.

An online chain of posts involving the Twitter empress prompted California police to go to the aid of a woman who was having suicidal thoughts, the Associated Press reports.

San Jose Sgt. Ronnie Lopez says the department received a phone call early Friday morning from a person in Dallas who was tipped off to a supposed suicide attempt through the social-networking site.

Moore, a popular celebrity Twitterer, was involved in a discussion on the site that began when a user sent the actress what appeared to be suicidal notes.

Lopez says officers made immediate contact with a 48-year-old female resident of San Jose and transferred her to a local hospital for "psychiatric evaluation."

He says there were no injuries.
