Believe it or not I’m even excited about spring cleaning. I even volunteered to join the Green Team at work and assist in ridding an area in the city of debris and abandoned tires. We’re going to do this on Earth Day.
A friend of mine just completed a similar task and she told me about some of the crazy items that they found. She was most surprised about the number of parking meters.

My wife needs to understand people better!
Category: Lifestyle Written by Gwendolyn Baines
(NNPA)—Dear Gwendolyn:
I have been married to a wonderful woman for the past 26 years. At least she used to be wonderful. This is the problem. Two years ago I joined a bowling club with some of my co-workers. After we formed a men’s league, the wives decided they would form a league. My wife stopped going to the bowling matches three months ago. She claims to have a dislike for the women in the league.
