Phil Vassar is back in the spotlight with new music, a new album and a brand new record label. For Phil and his team, releasing the song “Let’s Get Together” as his new single was a no brainer. “Duh! [Laughs] It was kind of that. It was like ‘Well…yeah…Uh, let’s put that out today… Okay!’ You know, you play it for folks, and everybody, of course, is always going to have their opinion, you know. But ‘Let’s Get Together’ was just sort of a… across the board, everybody said ‘Man, that’s just…That sounds like you having a good time.’” Get ready to pick up Phil’s new album sometime this fall and don’t miss him on the Peace – Love – Music tour and at the CMA Music Festival in Nashville next week.

What state is surrounded by the most water?
Hawaii. All of it is surrounded by water. Most people, amazingly enough, get this one wrong. They either say Maine, Florida, Alaska, or California.

Our Hometown Hero(’s) Today is/are Nick Segal
My hero is Nick because he grew up in some hard times, but he found a great wife and had four children and owned different businesses like a laundromat and a lottery both. He also re-built a Model A car. He is still thought of even though he has passed on. I'm proud to be his grandson and that is why he is my hero.

HEALTH MOMENT
Eating baked goods that contain milk may help children get over milk allergies, a new study suggests. Allergic children given cooked milk, baked into muffins, over the course of months or years saw their symptoms disappear faster than children who simply avoided milk products. The researchers say their results have the potential to change how kids are treated for milk allergies -- which affect as many as three percent of young children, according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease.
Milk allergy is not the same as lactose intolerance, which is an inability to digest milk products.
Kids with allergies can react to the proteins in milk and cheese with symptoms ranging from mild itching to potentially deadly anaphylactic shock.
In the study, milk-allergic kids who were able to tolerate the muffins from the start were also much more likely to eventually grow out of their milk allergies - hinting at the possibility of a muffin test to distinguish transient allergies from more severe ones.
Among children who eventually outgrew their milk allergies, the ones who received the muffin therapy did so faster than the kids who avoided milk - suggesting that the exposure also helped to hasten the process.
BREAK TIME CHATTER
#1.) According to a new study, the key to being rich in middle age is . . . NOT spending your 20s just getting to know yourself. The study found that the best way to make $200,000-a-year by age 35 is to make six figures before that age. In this ultra-competitive market, being in a good job makes it easier to get a better one.
#2.) In England, a hypnotist wrapping up a stage show tripped, fell, and was KNOCKED OUT . . . leaving three volunteers stuck in a hypnotic state. Paramedics eventually revived him and he was able to bring his volunteers back to reality. His manager says the whole thing, quote, "damaged his ego."
#3.) In New Jersey, a man was getting a haircut and ended up arguing with his barber over how long it was taking. Things eventually escalated and turned physical . . . and the barber ended up BITING OFF half of the customer's EAR. The customer was rushed to the hospital for surgery . . . and the barber has been charged with aggravated assault. Sounds like a Mike Tyson moment.
And I leave you with this thought…
"Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses."
