You can’t be too careful. I’ve heard that saying many times, but I’m not so sure I believe it anymore. Former shuttle commander Alan Poindexter was killed over the weekend in a jet-ski accident with his son. Poindexter was commander for two separate space shuttle missions and survived them both. Now he’s gone at the age of 50 because of a freak accident.
Former U.S. Congresswoman Gabrielle Gifford was almost killed standing on a street corner talking to constituents when a crazy person opened fire killing several in the crowd. Meanwhile, her husband Mark Kelly was a lot safer on the space shuttle’s final mission a few months later.
Comedian Steven Wright once told the joke, “I’ve heard most accidents happen within two miles of home…so I moved.”
We hear many stories of people surviving underneath piles of rubble for days and other people dying quickly after falling down the stairs at home. What’s the point? I guess there isn’t one except you shouldn’t be too careful because that might be dangerous.
The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, it is another gorgeous Monday, fit for another great show at the Crystal Corner tonight.

Hey everybody, we were thrown for a loop by the twist this week, but were able to make one of our "oldie but a goldie" songs fit the mold.
We have a few songs that we have played consistently over the years, and we are very happy that we will be...
We just received word of what this weeks twist is, and...oh boy. We need to take our "signature song" and cut it to only 2:30 without going over. Amberstein does not simply play 2:30 versions of our songs...so this could be interesting.

In 1984, Rockwell rose to number 2 for 3 weeks in 1984 with "Somebody's Watching Me." The backup singer for the song was Michael Jackson. How did Rockwell get Jackson to help him? Well, Rockwell's real name is Kennedy William Gordy and he...
Have you heard the song "Rumble and Sway" yet on Triple M?
The singer sounds like a raspy blues dude who's definitely been around the block a few times....but surprisingly, Jamie N. Commons is only 23 years old!
He was born in England, but...
Last week, I decided I would try one new, healthy food a week, and asked my facebook friends to make some suggestions.
The first thing I tried was mango. I'm sure I've had other mango flavored things, and mango as part of something else, but...
There's only one thing that might be worse than the Neil Diamond/Barbra Streisand duet "You Don't Bring Me Flowers." And that's Jonathan Suttin doing his best crooning...doing both parts. Most unpleasant.
A lot of people liked this song...
