There are many things that every American should be doing today. One important thing is to find out more information on how to keep our world as clean and healthy as possible. There are many ways to do this.

One of the most important things we can do is to take action. Saying you will recycle and then forgetting all about it next week is not the answer. Saving energy and recycling need to be done every day by everyone.

Even people who are not all that religious join in and celebrate Easter. I think it is a great holiday. It is all about happy things, baby animals, candies, coloring eggs and a big ham dinner with family or friends.

It is hard to top a holiday that is only happy and good, with no pressure about buying gifts or wearing costumes or feeling guilty about its history.

I hope you like Easter as much as I do and have a blessed Easter today with family or friends.

This time of year everything is blooming and there is pollen in the air. The pollen from the pine trees is the worst. Pine tree pollen lasts for about 2 weeks in the Spring and it covers everything. There is no point even trying to run your truck through the car wash and get rid of it. The very next day after you wash it the truck will be covered with the light green pollen all over again.

This time of year I sometimes sneeze and get a bad headache from all the pollen, and I’m no known for having any allergies. But when the pollen is this thick, I guess everyone suffers from the lack of air quality. Hopefully we will get a good rain storm soon that will blow all the pollen down and wash it away.

Last night I wanted to buy some cold drinks for the house and remembered seeing a sale price on Coca Cola products at the Walgreens. I am pretty sure that the sales brochure listed the price of sodas at 5 of the refrigerator case size boxes for fifteen dollars. So that was simple math making the price of each box three bucks.

The normal price of a refrigerator case of soda is right around five dollars, so that was some good savings and worth a special trip to Walgreens. I figured I would buy the 5 cases and end up saving ten bucks. That’s not exactly half price, but when you stock up and buy five of them a savings of ten dollars is not something to sneeze at.

But when I got to the closest Walgreens and found the grocery aisle with the sodas, there were little signs on the shelves saying that the sale prices as advertising were incorrect due to a printing error and the sale price could not be honored. That totally disappointed and angered me at the same time. I can understand that sometimes you might have a printing error, but that was not drastic like saying the sodas were only a penny. I know that I can find them on sale for under $3 a case at the grocery store.

I think the store should have honored the sale price on at least one case, even if they limited the purchase to one case instead of five cases. After all, that is the main reason that I drove all the way past my grocery store to get to the Walgreens any way. I left the Walgreens without buying any of the rest of the items on my list. I feel cheated and will not be spending my money at a store that cheats me.

Because my father was in the music business, I was exposed to all the different kinds of music while I was growing up. My father played the piano or keyboards for several local bands over the years, and he could play any kind of music.

I think the music that I liked best was the country music, even though most of my friends seemed to like rock and roll. There was just something about country music that seemed more genuine and soothing. Sometimes I even like bluegrass music, but mostly I just like something with a good beat that I can dance to.
