A man needing a heart transplant is told by his doctor that the only heart available is that of a sheep. The man finally agrees and the doctor transplants the sheep heart into the man. A few days after the operation, the man comes in for a checkup. The doctor asks him "How are you feeling?" The man replies, "Not BAAAAD!"
Patient: My stomach is getting awfully big, doctor. Doctor: You should diet. Patient: Really? What color?

Q: Every year I have to deal with brown and dying grass, because the climate we live in gets so hot in the late summer. We also have water restrictions to deal with.

• It was notorious Irish writer (and noted wit) Oscar Wilde who made the following sage by Samantha Weaver observation: “Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.” • Something to think about before you make your next call: Those who study such things say that cellphones harbor more bacteria than the toilet handles in a public restroom. • The first private bathrooms on record date back to 8,000 B.C. Archaeologists on the Scottish island of Orkney have found the remains of stone huts built on a drainage system that emptied into a nearby stream. • If you’ve ever seen bears groggily emerge from hibernation in the springtime, you probably won’t be surprised to learn that a group of them is collectively known as a sloth of bears. (They’re also sometimes called a sleuth of bears, though the reasons for that are not obvious, as bear detectives seem somewhat improbable.) • A lightning bolt is five times hotter than the surface of the sun. • In the 1950s it was possible to buy a child’s atomic laboratory set. The U-238 Atomic Energy Set, marketed by the A.C. Gilbert Company, included lowlevel radioactive sources, uranium-bearing ore and a radiation gauge. • When you’re standing outside in a hard rain, the raindrops are hitting you at about 20 mph. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Publisher's Corner by Sean Athey Hey everyone!
Welcome to the First Edition of Volume 3 of Tidbits of the Lake Area! Thank you so much for picking up Tidbits and enjoying it! We can hardly believe this is already our third year of bringing our fun, free and family-friendly publication to you! Time seems to either be a friend or enemy in most cases. For me this week... well, a BEFORE toss up I guess. I did manage to get back to that space I call the garage and make some more headway on the big "fall cleaning" this past week. I can't say it is done, but I can say I have way more floor space AFTER... sort of... than I used to... it's almost like you could park a car in there if you wanted... hmm, what a concept! Thanks for reading the issue of Tidbits of the Lake Area, Lynette and I appreciate it very much! Keep watching for those school kids, and take care we'll see you next issue!!

Pop Bottles Q: My son found some old bottles in a creek bed near our home. Most are soda-pop bottles, including Five-O, Quality, Dur and two early Coca-Colas. What can you tell me about them? -- Margretta, Centralia, Ill. A: One of the better references is “Soda Pop Collectibles Price Guide: The Encyclopedia of Soda Pop Collectibles” by Allan Petretti and published by Krause Books. Petretti is one of the country’s foremost experts on soda-pop memorabilia, and his book features thousands of illustrations documenting bottles and products from soda pop producers both big and small. This might be a good place for you to begin. This guide is updated periodically, so prices seem to accurately reflect the marketplace. It can be ordered directly from the publisher: Krause Books, 700 East State St., Iola, WI 54990; and 888-457-2873. ••• Q: I have a four-piece set of Hardee’s first series of California Raisins: Ben Indasun, Justin X.

Answer on page 11
A: The California Raisins figurines, which were given away as premiums by Hardee’s, pop up more often on the East Coast and in the South, since that is where most of the restaurants in the chain were located. I checked several price guides and believe the four California Raisins figurines you have are worth about $5 each. Incidentally, Hardee’s issued a second series and eventually a third and final series. ••• Q: I have a copy of “Heidi,” a Windermere Reader School edition from 1954. It is in excellent condition. Could it be worth anything? -- Amelia, West Warwick, R.I. A: I found a copy of your book at www.abe.com for $5. This is an excellent website that lists books by title and dealers offering them for sale. When using it, make certain you search for the right publisher and edition. ••• Q: I have several Hummel’s in the Christmas Bell series. How can I determine values? -- Beth, Hammond, La. A: According to “The Official M.J. Hummel Price Guide” by Heidi Ann Von Recklinghausen and published by Krause Books, the Christmas Bell series was introduced in 1989. From that first issue through 2000, this guide claims the bells are worth about $30 each.
