Help your cat look like they just had their nails did! :)
Written by Eric Matthews
I stopped at the pet store earlier today to get some food for Buttercup. I happened to walk down the aisle with treats and other accessories - and found these!
They are marketed to help your cat not get their nails caught on furniture, your clothes, help prevent scratches to you, etc. But to me it looks like something you'd put on your cat like nail polish! If your cat has that special night planned out on the town...put these on her so her nails look amazing! hahaha
I'm sorry, there is NO WAY in H - E - DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS you are getting me to even attempt to put those on the cat! You're going to end up with so many scratches on you there will be no reason to put them on the cat to protect you from a scratch because it'll be too late!
If you'd like to try them, more power to you my friend.

The biggest recycling fail in the U.S. is pizza boxes. A pizza box — that is stained with grease or food is not recyclable unless you remove all of the soiled portions.
How Do - Mary Chapin Carpenter - 1989 - (Album - State Of The Heart)
Mary Chapin Carpenter sold a ton of albums in the 1990's. She is perhaps one of the more underrated singers of that remarkable decade as sometimes, time is not overly kind to some of our past stars. In the long run, MCC was not traditional country, she was not pop, but what she was, was a very interesting mix of a few kinds of music, and much of it was for the thinking person. This song was not her biggest hit by any means. But this was her very first successful hit single. And this is among the most savvy debut songs in all the years I've been doing this. More artists should follow this formula. This is short, concise, uptempo, fun and hard not to sing along with, or at least tap your toes. When introducing yourself to someone, many times less is more, and leaving them wanting more is a key as well. That's exactly what this song does, and even though she was not traditional, this song is. It checks every box for a proper introduction, and after this, she was on her way for a decade of big hit songs. Smart, slick and perfect for an introduction. Young artists - listen up!

WYNN - #33 - I Hope You Dance - Lee Ann Womack - 2000
Written by Scott Wynn
Well the 90's were over and it was a new century. Lee Ann Womack was a terrific country singer with a great look and a wonderful voice that gave real emotion to much of her material. This ushered in 2000 and was perhaps the first gigantic country hit of the new millennium. It was universally loved by about everyone on the planet, winning about every award a song can. Grammy's, ACM, CMA the list goes on and sold millions. This written song is about perfect. It speaks of every parents hope for their own child, taking every parent, grandparent, uncle, aunt, or Godparent to the vision of the children in their life and their dreams for them. But a song this good needs a voice and it ended up where it should have, with Womack who was a young mother herself at this moment, which gave it real credibility. This is a confluence of many great things that spawned a huge hit song. Then toss in the wonderful background vocals of the Sons Of The Desert and you have about the perfect mix yet again. The video was a big part of this enormous #1, that was the zenith of LAW's career, as it became a huge crossover hit as well. Funny thing, many times a song this big and influential can be a curse at the same time. With all the awards, airplay and sales, there comes the "what's next" factor. Her next song, Ashes Buy Now, was her last song to really chart well. Although her There's More Where That Came From, album from 2005, was a big success and is a work of art. But every artist would love a song this big, and this important that introduced us to millions, upon millions of new fans. And still does when played.

The Jordan Davis, Mitchell Tenpenny and Ashley Cooke show at the Covelli Centre on Friday was great from start to finish!
I enjoy each artist and they did not disappoint.
Ashley is lovely and on her way to being a star. Mitchell can hit those high notes, and his set had a bit more rock vibes than I was expecting and I was there for it, and Jordan- he is a delight! What a headliner he has become in just a few years!
