Like many from my local area, I had the pleasure of watching Carson Peters grow up singing and playing his trademark sizzling fiddle.
The first time I saw this young man perform was in nearby Bristol, Virginia on the stage of a local Bluegrass Music show called The Pickin’ Porch.
He was all of 8 years old, but he played that fiddle like he was already a seasoned veteran – and in a very real way, he was.

You probably already know that some trees can live an awful long time, but did you know some species can live for thousands of years?
Well, they can, and the oldest living trees on our planet are located in the U.S. state of California.
Don’t you just love it when one of those car commercials pops up on your TV screen?
You know the ones I’m thinking about…
A car guy walks you around his lot, excitedly screaming about all the awesome deals you can get, but only if you shop at his dealership!
Nah, I don’t really care for those over-the-top kinds of ads either.
But here’s a knock-off of those irritating car commercials that’ll probably put a smile on your face.

Here’s a fun fact for you: 7% of Americans believe we get chocolate milk by milking brown cows.
We know this thanks to a survey sponsored by the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy.
I received an email the other day from someone asking about the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes ads we’re always seeing on TV.
Concise and to the point, she asked these two questions:
1 – Are the Publisher’s Clearing House Sweepstakes legit?
2 – If so, where do they get all that money to pay the Sweepstakes winners?
Those are great questions, and truth be told, I used to wonder about that as well so I did some research into how it all works.
