"No one really knows what I'm talking about
Yeah that's right my name's Yauch
Ponce De Leon constantly on
The fountain of youth not Robotron
Peace is a word I've heard before
So move and move and move upon the dance floor
I'm gonna die gonna die gonna die one day
Cause I'm goin and goin and goin this way
Not like a roach or a piece of toast
I'm going out first class not going out coach"

you know how i hate cutesy shit, but i just finished watching this for the 4th consecutive time and it just gets funnier.

if you could bottle the look on his face when his song comes on, you'd have the fountain of youth.

In the beginning there was a fountain
But it wasn't just any fountain
It was a fountain of light
It was a fountain of truth
It was a fountain of dreams
It was a fountain of youth

It was a magic fountain

And we were never told
That the fountain was a trophy for the kingdoms of old
A treasure a plaything a Trojan in disguise
And in the last great war the secret burned up in the fire
So the peasants stormed mountain tops pretending to be king
While the king sailed off in their balloons pursuing idle things
? Hit the Himalayas in the night

It was a magic fountain

And so it was some motley crew who found it in the night
One of them a lunatic told me of his plight
One dived to the left of him two went to the right
But he remained he said he saw he said he saw the light

And it was magic fountain
Magic fountain

I've heard this before but not in such detail. It reminds me of the study of traffic that shows that users who zoom ahead in an ending, merging lane help traffic move faster. Interesting stuff.

Let's see the study. I absolutely refuse to believe that.

http://blog.videosift.com/lucky760/Merging-Late-Speeds-Traffic


First of all, you misread the blog. It discussed a series of signs which encourage a single merge point and taking turns. Your quote refers to "zooming ahead" being beneficial, which is highly doubtful. See, just by reading that blog (and not the entire study, since it's not cited), I can think of multiple reasons why "merging late" and a system set up with signs to inform drivers of the optimal time to merge are completely different things.

For one, "merging late" only reduces travel time for the people who skip the line, so it might be mathematically better, but it's not better on average, nor is it fair. One of the first replies to the blog also indicates that it's probably having a single merge point rather than multiple is the mechanic which is making traffic smoother. Because face it, if everyone merged at the first available opportunity and took turns, it would be exactly the same as using both lanes up until the merge point and taking turns. It's the uncertainty, randomness, and speed of the merging which requires people to use their brakes a lot, hence slowing traffic.

Just because some headline agrees with whatever stupid thing you're doing doesn't mean you have to latch on to it as justification for whatever. It's like when there's some headline about scientists playing with genes that affect the aging process and every newspaper/nightly news headline is FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!!!!

Use your brain.

So Mecca is the fountain of youth...

Billy Idol must have found the fountain of youth, cause that dude barely ages at all. He was 46 (born 1955) when this was recorded (2001). He barely looks over 30.

Hm not to me. First 2 seconds into video, I was struck by his age.

Nice performance - love Billy Idol.

Hey Ponce, hope you found your damned fountain of youth by now, cheers!

Am I the only one thinking, "Who the hell cares?" You'd think they'd discovered the fountain of youth or something.


Thank god I'm not the only one! thank you!

I think andy Dick should play him. He's got a big nose too.

^this.

Also, this kid is creepy. He looks like one of those bad guys in movies for kids that hunt for the fountain of youth, only to end up in oversized suits after drinking too much.
