Boy we sure are lucky! We get to have a ball every day laughing, telling funny stories, talking to the greatest group of people on earth, our Q102 listeners, and we actually get paid for it!!! When I say that we have the best listeners ever here at Q102, I mean it! I’ve had the chance to work in a lot of places, but here in what we call Shenandoah Country, folks welcome you no matter who you are, and extend such wonderful, honest friendship. You all have become a real part of my “family”, and that’s for real. It’s awful hard to roll out of bed every day and have fun, unless there’s someone like you to share the morning with! So thanks for getting us started while we help get you started!!

A new study finds that the color of your bedroom matters when it comes to sleep quality.
The research was done by Travelodge, and found that those who sleep in rooms colored yellow, blue, or green get the best night's sleep.
The hotel chain investigated two-thousand homes across the UK to find out which colors were equated with great sleep. Those who slept in bedrooms colored purple were found to sleep the worst. Study authors say this may happens because purple is a very mentally stimulating color. Other bad-sleep colors included gray and brown. One sleep expert says, "This is an amazing result, as there are specialized receptors called ganglion cells in the retina part of our eyes, which are more sensitive to the color blue." He explains the ganglion cells feed information to the brain in the area that controls our internal clocks and affects how we perform and feel during the day. (Daily Mail)

MOST SWIMMING POOLS ARE CONTAMINATED BY POOP!
New scientific research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds that more pools are contaminated with poop.
Scientists they found the genetic material from E. coli bacteria in 58-percent of public pools they tested during the summer of 2012.
Researchers say the fecal material in pools comes from swimmers not showering before getting into the water, and from incidents of defecation in pools.
Michele Hlavsa, chief of the CDCs Healthy Swimming Program says, "Chlorine and other disinfectants don't kill germs instantly. It's important that swimmers shower before getting in a pool, not swallow the water they swim in, and avoid swimming if they have diarrhea."
MAYWEATHER IS HIGHEST-EARNING U.S. ATHLETE: Boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. is the highest-earning U.S. athlete for the second straight year, according to Sports Illustrated's annual list out Wednesday (May 15th). The estimates, which combine salary, winnings and endorsements, project that Mayweather will make $90 million this year. Coming in second place is Miami Heat star LeBron James, at $56.5 million. Rounding out the top five are New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees with $47.8 million, the L.A. Lakers' Kobe Bryant at just under $47 million, and Tiger Woods with $40.8 million. That's the lowest spot for Woods, who'd been Number One through 2011, since the list started in 2004.
The top 50 includes 25 baseball players, 13 basketball players and eight football players, with no female athletes.
