Now we know, thanks to Ron Hoffman one of cranial enhanced listeners, Ron tells us “How He Do That”?
I just saw your “Fast Bug” video…I hate to sound like the guy who tells you there is no “Santa”; but there is a good reason how this is possible.Since I know what that reason is, I thought I would try to impress you with this (Seldom used) knowledge…There exists a force in nature called the “Boundary Layer”…This “Boundary layer” is simply the layer of “Stagnation” that forms between two surfaces in motion.
Think about a golf ball, if it were not for the “Dimples” acting like “Ball-bearings” the ball would not fly nearly as far…This (Boundary Layer) is what allowed the bug to ride the window at high speeds.He was in an area of stagnant (Relatively still) air caused by the friction on the surface of the car (Eddy Currents).This is also why wind tunnel testing is so important nowadays.The lower the “Boundary Layer/Drag Coefficient” of a vehicle, the lower the friction, and the better the gas mileage…
Now you know that I am not only a “Rocker”, but I can also pass for one of the “Geeks” from “The Big-Bang Theory”…
Below is a clip you likely have never seen. The recording of ‘Get Back’ for the ‘Let It Be’ album.
In their early days, The Beatles played in clubs for hours most nights, but by 1967, they stopped touring. This single was advertised
as “The Beatles as nature intended.”
McCartney:
“We were sitting in the studio and we made it up out of thin air… we started to write words there and then… when we finished it, we recorded
it at Apple Studios and made it into a song to roller coast by. The character “JoJo” was based on Joseph Melville See Jr., Linda McCartney’s first husband. He was from Tucson, Arizona, and killed himself there in 2000.
The missing verse from Get Back: “Meanwhile back at home there’s nineteen Pakistanis, Living in a council flat/Candidate for Labour
tells them what the plan is/Then he tells them where its at”. (”Council flat” is the British equivalent for “housing project”).
Early versions include the line “I dig no Pakistanis.” The song began as a commentary about immigration, telling people to “Get Back” to their own countries. It was meant to mock Britain ’s anti-immigrant proponents. Paul McCartney thought better of it and made the lyrics more obscure.
Paul looked at Yoko in the studio when he sang the line “get back to where you once belong.” John thought he was disrespecting her. There
was a rare quote by Paul that said “I don’t take any notice of her. She’s John’s wife so I have to respect her for that, but I don’t think she’s the brightest of buttons. She’s said some particularly daft things in her time. Her life is dedicated to putting me down but I attempt very strongly not to put her down.” They eventually became friends even if it did have to be after John was murdered. Ringo was the only one who would accept Yoko in the beginning when she first came into the picture, during and after The Beatles.
Billy Preston played piano and became the only guest artist to get a credit on a Beatles single - “The Beatles with Billy Preston.” George
Harrison had left the recording session one day and saw Preston in concert with Ray Charles. The Beatles had met Preston back in 1962 when they were both playing in Germany , but they hadn’t seen each other since. Harrison asked Preston to come by the studio the next day. Having him in the studio eased the tension and made it easier for The Beatles to put personal conflicts aside and record the album.
On the video clip you can briefly see a young Mick Jagger & Charlie Watts from the Rolling Stones in the booth. Phil Spector is the guy wearing the glasses (now he wears prison stripes).
I am so tired of hearing that Perez Hilton is upset!He is just looking for some PR for his gossip web site that I’m sure he’s getting, and ALL of the TV time as well.Miss California, Carrie Prejean was asked her opinion on a personal & political question about gay marriage, and she gave it!It does NOT matter what Perez, other judges, you or even me personally believe, Miss California answered the question along the lines of her personal beliefs, and was penalized for it.Do they want contestants that just look hot and pander to the judges whenever they can, or are the wanting strong, smart & bold women? Many on the media are saying the Miss California, stumbled in her answer; I still don’t understand why she is being compared to Miss Teen South Carolina Lauren Upton and her brilliant answer last year. You remember…
If you ask a volatile question, you should be prepared for an explosive answer!Suck it up if you don’t like that answer, that’s one opinion
While warming up for the 2009 Masters Tournament, Phil Mickelson told reporters that he has come up with ‘the perfect comeback’ to use if Tiger Woods cracks a joke about his left-handedness. “Tiger likes to tease me, but this time I’ve got something ready for him—and let me tell you, it’s a good one,” Mickelson said during a press conference as he struggled to stop himself from laughing. “It’s not corny or lowbrow or anything, either. No, I spent a lot of time thinking up the best possible zinger, and it’s gonna get him right where it hurts. I bet he stops in his tracks and says, ‘Ya got me.’ And he’ll be right, too.” The exact nature and phrasing of Mickelson’s comeback is not currently known.
Frustrated TV producers announced Monday that they have nearly exhausted every combination of people that can be made to dance with each other in televised competition. “We’ve had professional dancers performing with everyone from movie stars to former NFL players to people from other reality shows, and we’ve had amateurs who thought they could dance but more often than not discovered otherwise,” producer David Celino said. “Take any kind of person you can imagine, and I guarantee we’ve had them dancing on TV.
We’re running out of options here, and we’re desperate. Help.” Celino said that television producers were exploring several new variations on dance-based reality programming, including one show in which naked people are filmed having sex with each other.
