Thompson Square has sold over one-million copies of their single, “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not”. The RIAA recently certified the song Platinum. The #1 song has been a blessing to the duo’s Keifer Thompson who says they knew it would be a single from the start. “The weird thing about that song is like, when you’re in Nashville when you’re…especially when you have a record label, everyone’s got their opinion on, ‘Is it a hit song or not?’ You know, and usually it’s uh…some don’t like it, some do like it. For this song in particular, everyone’s like, ‘Yeah, we love that song.’ So, we were lucky enough to be able to have it.” “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not” and Thompson Square’s latest single, “I Got You” is on their debut album, available now!

Our Hometown Hero(’s) Today is/are Rob Young
My Hero is my son Rob. He has just arrived in Afghanistan, where he will be stationed for possibly a year. He is serving in the Army. Rob has spent his whole adult life, trying to be the "best he can be". With his steadfast determination, he has overcome many obstacles that came before him in his path. He will be 38 yrs. old on April 19,2011, which is only a few days away and he will be far away in a strange place, but he will be fine, because he's him, and I know he makes the best out of any situation. He has a wife and two very young (5&6) children at home, that he loves and cherishes. He is such a great Daddy, and a the only part of his going away that bothered him, was having to be apart from his family. He looks at going to Afghanistan, as his duty and as an opportunity to give to his country and to make life better for everyone. He is my son that I love and admire so much...he is My Hero!

HEALTH MOMENT
It’s easy to forget about summer skin care when you’re enjoying yourself outside. While spending time at the beach or poolside, on the biking or hiking trails, or playing pretty much any outdoor sport, regularly applying sunscreen is probably the last thing on your mind. However, summer skin care is something you should definitely pay close attention to.
It’s no secret that the sun has UVA and UVB rays that are extremely damaging to your skin, which makes it hard to believe that so many people ignore the damage that the sun can cause to their bodies. Sun damage causes aging and, of course, various types of cancer. Taking appropriate summer skin care precautions is the only way to go.
Choose your sun protection factor (SPF) level carefully. SPF indicates the amount of time you can stay in the sun with that particular level of sunscreen. While using an SPF of 15 is a good start, you should use an SPF of 30 if you are planning on spending longer periods of time outdoors.
Sunscreen only works if you use it properly. Follow these summer skin care guidelines to protect your flesh and your health:
–Be sure to put sun block on 30 minutes before heading outdoors.
–Apply sunscreen every two hours, regardless of the SPF level. Over time, sunscreen wears off by being touched, rubbed off with towels or by sweating.
–Use protection on all parts of your body. Don’t forget your ears, head, hands, and feet. Use a lip balm with sun protection to guard your lips.
–Remember that cotton clothes often protect less than an SPF 15 sunscreen. Even if you have a T-shirt on, you should use sunscreen.
–Only use baby-formula sunscreen on babies
BREAK TIME CHATTER
#1.) Don't believe the hype . . . Facebook ISN'T making you socially crippled when it comes to interacting face-to-face. A new survey found that active Facebook users have BETTER real-life social skills: They have more close friends, they're more trusting, and they're more politically engaged. Also, the emotional support from Facebook is about 50% of what a SPOUSE can provide.
#2.) America took another step forward today in the DEEP-FRYING RACE, which is like our generation's version of the Space Race. DEEP-FRIED KOOL-AID has hit the county fair circuit and it's an instant hit. Flour, water, and cherry Kool-Aid are rolled into balls and deep-fried, making a Kool-Aid-flavored type of donut hole.
#3.) A snake handler in Miami died at age 100 last week. He'd been bitten by lethal poisonous snakes 172 times in his career, and he died from . . . natural causes. He'd been bitten so many times that he developed an immunity to snake venom . . . and his blood was actually used in transfusions to save the lives of 21 people who'd been bitten and WEREN'T immune. All I can say to that is, WOW!!!!
And I leave you with this thought…
"A friend is a present you give yourself."
