Pop

There were rumors that this was coming and now it's official. There are at least 3 sodas widely available in Illinois up until now that have been banned forever thanks to the Food and Drug Administration.

Is there a soda that's good for you?

Kids, you and I both know that there are new country singers every day. There are some that work, and some that... well, don't.  Let's be clear before I start in on this. When I'm referring to these people, I mean folks who started out in either rock or pop music, had some success there, and are now doing country music. Some have had bigger successes than others.

Much like Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift isn't one to go around slapping labels like "pop" or "country" on her music. No, that's too confining -- she'd rather just do her own thing in the way she sees fit.
