You know it's alright, it's ok,
I'll live to see another day

Today, I am bemoaning my missing the second season premier of Eli Stone on Tuesday, as well as attempting to dodge coverage of last night's (equally scripted?) U.S. Presidential debate. And while trying to distract myself from the former (and wait for the episode to download from iTunes), I stumbled across this story: Disco tune "Stayin' Alive" could save your life.

The article talks about how the rhythm of the Bee Gees' song from Saturday Night Fever nearly matches the recommended rhythm for CPR (Stayin' Alive is 103 beats per minute; the American Heart Association recommends CPR at 100 beats per minute). It just made me smile....

But now, I will let iTunes download the new Eli Stone episode in peace. Hasta...


Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive
