The new design is intended to prevent bigger kids from tormenting younger ones by decapitating them as they ride, leaving smaller kids unharmed. Kelda Bullie, from Safe Playground, Inc. said, "This was in response to our customers who have had increasing problems with bigger kids dominating equipment made for smaller children. This new design has received lots of positive feedback, and has effectively removed several bigger kids from the equation." Bullie went on to explain that they are already working on a revision which will include a mechanism for catching the decapitated heads to keep the playground cleaner.

Round and round and round in vicious circles,
Repeating the same thing 'til your face turns blue,
One of these days you'll live to regret this,
You and your little dog, too!

Unfortunately for restaurateur Bruno Basiltoff, budgetary constraints forced him to make what proved to be some unwise cutbacks on the design for the al fresco dining area at his new establishment.

Round and round, what comes around, goes . . . SPLAT!
Madison's summer music festival season kicks off this weekend with Brat Fest at Willow Island, where there are more bands than you can shake a bratwurst at! Check out the Brat Fest website to plan your itinerary.

John Fogerty is making the talk show rounds this week, stopping in to see David Letterman Tuesday and Wednesday, and the ladies of "The View" on Thursday.
He's promoting his new album, "Wrote a Song For Everyone" which comes out next Tuesday...
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, it is another gorgeous Monday, fit for another great show at the Crystal Corner tonight.
Through locking ourselves in the barn on Irish Lane, tossing some ideas around, as well as a few choice beverages to...
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...
