staying alive to bite the dust
I read an interesting article about a woman who went hiking with her husband in the woods not too long ago. He had a heart attack on the trail, far from help, and she remembered a public service announcement that advised her to do CPR in time to the tune Staying Alive (oh come on, hit the link, I know you want to. It's the BEE GEES!).
She did as the PSA advised, kept her head and sustained her husband's life long enough for the pros to keep him that way more permanently (go ahead and click that link, who can resist a title that reads "Disco Tune Saves Man's Life").
And all that was pretty interesting to me, but the most interesting part came at the very end of the article. While the PSA advised viewers to pump at 100 beats a minute (the pace recommended to maintain a life) to the tune of "Staying Alive," the doctors themselves apparently sing a different tune. It also runs 100 beats a minute.
It's called "Another One Bites the Dust."
Talk about the glass being half full or half empty.

Awesome story! ( yes I couldn't resist the story. I managed to resist the Bee Gees link, though. :P )
I'd go for that one, ANY DAY.
