Pink Flamingo Day
-- declared in 2007 by Dean Mazzaralla, the mayor of Leominster, MA to honor the work of Don Featherstone, creator of the plastic lawn flamingo. Show your love for pink flamingos on Pink Flamingo Day! Decorate your front yard with pink plastic flamingos in celebration. A minimum of four flamingos is required for a decent size flock. Source

Read: The Original Pink Flamingos: Splendor on the Grass, by Don Featherstone
-- In 1957, Don Featherstone sculptured the first three-dimensional pink plastic flamingo, thereby making affordable bad taste accessible to the American public--from Pink Flamingos. This is the tale of a wonderful bird, named by his creator phoenicopteris ruber plasticus; a new avian species, now known to all as Pink Plastic Flamingo. The more than one hundred pictures and the text in this volume are the result of Featherstone's request adoring owners of the pink birds send original photographs to demonstrate their affection for phoenicopteris on its 40th birthday in 1997.

Photo credit: Natural Homemade Drain Cleaner - All rights reserved

Did You Know? Drain-O, or any other clog busting chemical, eventually eat away at your rubber seals.

Here is a safer and cheaper drain cleaner:

I have personally used this tip in the past for clogged drains - and it really did work!

I would pour a 1/2 to 1 cup of baking soda into the clogged drain, then pour in 1/2 cup of vinegar.

I would let it sit for about 20-30 minutes.

Then I would dump a pot filled with boiling water - and the drain would clear immediately!

From our Facebook fan page:

Marva Nic Bran posted: Nice...gotta try that...thanks...

Amy Shifton posted: This is also a way to clean your washer and dishwasher.

Keith Stevens posted: Works on some clogs for me.

Nicole Krause posted: I just used this on Saturday. My husband thought I was nuts when I was doing it but was impressed when it worked.

Bev Krake posted: Yes, I have tried this many times, but still doesn't quite work sometimes. How I would like it to work vs Draino, but it does seem to have somewhat of an effect for the most part.

Jennifer Cooper posted: This didn't work for me.

Karolyn Kostlivy posted: Been using this for years... someone told me about it when I moved into my apartment, uhmmm.... over 15 years ago... once a week I do it in my kitchen sink, and have never ever had a blocked pipe!

Heather Minnich posted: On the advice of a plumber after the disastrous use of Liquid Plumber on very old pipes, I use Clorox to clear minor clogs.

Sarah Bentley Haiar posted: It also works to soak in your bathtub as a cleaning agent for those of us with ceramic tubs.

Roberta Dias posted: Heloise has given this tip many times, and it is very effective, not to mention safe and costs pennies.

Regina Vaughn posted: Thanks - now you really enlightened me about that.....environmentally safe ......really did not know you could unplug the drain like that. Good tip!
