Still more You Tube!
The reason you never want to yell "BASS SOLO" at any concert
Band Aid? USA For Africa? Give me Hear 'n' Aid (with 20 times more guitar solos and twice the umlauts)
And the original for comparison
Not to be left out, our Canadian neighbors gave us "Tears are Not Enough, Eh?"
I can't seem to find "Sun City"

This is why I quit eating at McDonalds
Student finds toilet water cleaner than ice at fast food restaurants
New Tampa, Florida - 12-year-old Jasmine Roberts is a seventh-grade student at Benito Middle School in New Tampa.
When it came time for her to choose a science project, she wondered about the ice in fast food restaurants.
Jasmine Roberts, 7th-grade student:
"My hypothesis was that the fast food restaurants’ ice would contain more bacteria that the fast food restaurants’ toilet water."
So Roberts set out to test her hypothesis, selecting five fast food restaurants, within a ten-mile radius of the University of South Florida.
Roberts says at each restaurant she flushed the toilet once, the used sterile gloves to gather samples.
Jasmine Roberts:
"Using the sterile beaker I scooped up some water and closed the lid."
Roberts also collected ice from soda fountains inside the five fast food restaurants. She also asked for cups of ice at the same restaurant's drive thru windows.
She tested the samples at a lab at the Moffitt Cancer Center where she volunteers with a USF professor. Roberts says the results did not surprise her.
Jasmine Roberts:
"I found that 70-percent of the time, the ice from the fast food restaurant's contain more bacteria than the fast food restaurant's toilet water."
Roberts' graph shows the toilet water, shown in red, had less bacteria in most cases than the ice inside shown in blue, and the ice from drive-through windows shown in green. Roberts' teacher says he wasn't surprised either.
Mark Danish, Honors Science Teacher:
"It does concern me and I think with any restaurant you have to think twice about what you may get there."
Roberts says she'll think twice before getting ice at fast food restaurants again.
Her project won the science fair at Benito Middle School, and she hopes to win the top prize at the Hillsborough County Regional Science and Engineering Fair, which starts Tuesday at the USF Sun Dome.

You Tube!
Man, do I love You Tube! Why? Because I'm convinced EVERYTHING is out there. My newest example is a music video I haven't seen in over 20 years:
Nick Lowe, "Cruel To Be Kind"
I've been looking for a copy of this forever, and there it is! The other day, we were talking about some SNL skit, and there it was on You Tube. If this is the future, I'm looking forward to every new day!
