Birthdays And Anniversaries For April 30th + Hairstyle Appreciation Day

If this is your birthday, congratulations! You share the same date as these names in country music. Johnny Horton, born in Los Angeles, in 1925. Married to Hank Williams'  widow, Billie Jean Jones, he finds a niche in the late-1950s and 1960 with historically based singles, including "North To Alaska," "Sink The Bismarck" and "The Battle Of New Orleans". Today is also the birthday of Willie Nelson, born in Abbott, Texas, in 1933, though some relatives insist the birth was April 29. After writing "Crazy" and "Hello Walls," he becomes a major figure in the '70s outlaw movement, earning a plaque in the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1993. Knowing Wille, he is probably "On The Road Again". Happy 82nd, Willie!

This Is Hairstyle Appreciation Day!

Each generation of youth creates it's own hairstyles, or come back to styles that were popular years ago. Remember when women wore the "beehive"? About that same time men were sporting crew cuts. Times change and so do hairstyles.
