Tuesday again

Time to start those Advent Calendars

And start cooking!

Scientists recently did a study on the effects the right side and left side of a brain had on counting. They first took out the left half of a man’s brain and asked him to count to 10. He says, ‟2, 4, 6, 8, 10”. They put the left halfback in and removed the right half, asking him to count to 10 again. He says ‟1, 3, 5, 7, 9”. Finally, they decided to just go for it and removed the whole brain. They again asked him to count to 10 one more time. He says, ‟Look. I’m great at counting to 10, ok? I love numbers and I have the best numbers. No one has better numbers than I do. My 4th-grade math teacher – and let me tell you, she was the best and smartest math teacher in the country at the time – my 4th-grade math teacher said to me that I am the best counter she is ever seen. The best. So if you want me to count to 10, let me tell you I can count to 10 alright. That’s no problem. I’ll do it. I’ll. And I will do it better than any has ever done it before, ok?”

And this…

Musical Moment

On this day in 1968, Glen Campbell started an eight-week run at number one on the charts with ‘Wichita Lineman‘. However, since I always found Glen Campbell to be really annoying, I’m going to point out that today is also the birthday (in 1953) of June Pointer of the Pointer Sisters who had, among others, this great hit.

In November of 1981, during their long musical tour of the US, the Rolling Stones went to see Muddy Waters perform at the Rosemont Horizon in Chicago. There was this song…

Today is the birthday (in 1940) of Percy Sledge. He was born in Leighton, Alabama and worked a series of agricultural jobs before taking a job as a hospital orderly and singing on weekends. A former patient introduced him to a record producer who auditioned him and offered him a contract. This is the first song he produced under the contract – a number 1 hit and a gold record for him.
