Original Vince G of Philippine Radio at the Krispy Kreme Green Lantern Preview

After moving back to the Philippines just over a year ago, I somehow fell into a wonderful job of being a radio announcer / DJ. I wasn’t very creative with my radio name nor did I really do any research, and just used my real name of Vince G, with the “G” just being short of my last name, Golangco.

Months after my stint in radio had begun, I found out that my radio name of “Vince G” had actually been used before by former radio DJ Vince Garrucho.

Fortunately, no angry mails had come my way from fans of, or from the original Vince G himself.

Anyway, I hosted a Krispy Kreme exclusive movie screening of the new Green Lantern movie to also promote their new Green Lantern Kreme Doughnuts.

The cool part about tonight was meeting this very friendly guy named “Vince.” I could sense a radio voice when he introduced himself and I immediately asked if he was indeed, “Vince G?” To my surprise, he actually was!

This original Vince G was really nice and we even chit chatted about his past radio career and his current hobbies like photography and diving. Original Vince G also spoke of his new Helo-Diving business, where scuba divers first jump out of a helicopter when they get to their destination.

Anyway, just really excited to meet this Vince guy! He has a really cool name! =)

Also, do try the really yummy Green Lantern Kreme Doughnut!

Mr. Know it All (useless info of the day)

Did you know you share your birthday with at least 9 million other people in the world.

Fact or Fiction

Some red food colorings are made from ground-up beetles.

FACT

Many food items, including fruit juices, candies and flavored gelatin contain cochineal, carmine or carminic acid to give them a deep red color.  These pigments are derived from the shells of the female Dactylopius coccus beetle, which is found in South and Central America.  The dye has been used for centuries and dates back to the Aztecs.  It is safer than most synthetic red dyes, apart from the rare allergic reaction.

Reason to party today – coz it’s happy hour somewhere in the world.

Happy Birthday To YOU!!!

June 27, 1859. The melody of probably the most often sung song in the world, “Happy Birthday to You,” was composed by Mildred J. Hill, a schoolteacher born at Louisville, KY, on this date. Her younger sister, Patty Smith Hill, was the author of the lyrics, which were first published in 1893 as “Good Morning to All,” a classroom greeting published in the book Song Stories for the Sunday School. The lyrics were amended in 1924 to include a stanza beginning “Happy Birthday to You.” Now it is sung somewhere in the world every minute of the day. Although the authors are believed to have earned very little from the song, reportedly it later generated about $1 million a year for its copyright owner. The song is expected to enter public domain upon expiration of copyright in 2010. Mildred Hill died at Chicago, IL, June 5, 1916, without knowing that her melody would become the world’s most popular song. See also: “Hill, Patty Smith: Birth Anniversary” (Mar 27).

Mr. Know it All (useless info of the day)

The sentence “the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” uses every letter in the English language.

Fact or Fiction

If you cut a worm in half, each half will grow back into a complete worm.

FICTION

If you cut a worm in half, you will most likely end up with two halves of a dead worm.  However, some species of worms can re-grow a new tail if it is cut off (or more likely, eaten by a bird).  While it is possible that the head half of the worm may grow a new tail, the tail half will not grow a new head — so you’re unlikely to end up with more worms than you started with.

Human Genome Mapped

June 26, 2000. Biologists J. Craig Venter and Francis S. Collins announced that their research groups had mapped the human genome, a strand of DNA with three billion parts that spell out our genetic code.
