Singing man, aquaplanes and flips car (caught on inside camera)


I was traveling from Indianapolis to Whitewater, WI for a practice weekend with Machine Ultimate. I was going 70mph (speed limit) on I65 north. I travel the 3-4 hours by myself every time and use singing as a way to pass time, and critique it later. At this point I was practicing a nasal type voice on a Casting Crowns song when the crash happened. I was watching the road and saw nothing that caused me to worry. Simply hydroplaned in a heavy rain. My car slid sideways, and then was completely backwards by the time I slid off the road and went down a small hill. I hit a mile marker sign (230) on my way off the road. Here are two of the most amazing parts: I sustained NO injuries. Not even a scratch. And my car took NO mechanical damage and is completely driveable. Only body damage.

Playing vinyl albums with an Aussie dollar note!


We heard that the new pound note can do this trick... well, the Aussie dollar has been the vinyl-playing currency of choice since 1988!

The new $5 note brings up the sweet sounds of BRIT'S BLUES (1958) by Red Norvo and his orchestra (composed by Elmer Bernstein) beautifully, as demonstrated by NFSA Education Manager Cris Kennedy
