And they talked about seeing each other and Jimmy was excited to tell him that we got real Navy pilots to do the flyover at the top of the Oscars. Jimmy was really disappointed he didn’t come.

Water Bottles Have More Bacteria Than Toilet Seats
A new study by Australian Catholic University reveals that reusable water bottles have more bacteria than a toilet seat. Researchers swabbed different parts of a water bottle before swabbing toilets. They found the water bottles hold 40,000 times more bacteria than the toilet seat.
Dr Simon Clarke says, “It’s not necessarily dangerous .I’ve never heard of someone getting sick from a water bottle. Similarly, taps are clearly not a problem: when did you last hear of someone getting ill from pouring a glass of water from a tap? Water bottles are likely to be contaminated with the bacteria that are already in people’s mouths.”

Dear Fonseca
My 19 year-old son got arrested this morning at 1:00 a.m. in South Padre Island. He is on Spring Break. I was working a 12-hour shift at the hospital so he knew to call my husband. My husband slept through the call. I am writing to you because I need to vent. My husband and I are furious that our son got himself into trouble when we told him not to. He is now asking for bail money. My husband and I are thinking of letting him sit in jail for several days. My mother-in-law thinks it's cruel. My husband and I think it's tough love. I can also see her point. God knows what kind of trash he is locked up with. Should we bail him out or not?
