TIDBITS® CORRECTS SOME
MISQUOTES by Kathy Wolfe
It seems that many of us have been misquoting well-known phrases for years. This week, Tidbits sets the record straight on some of the more common ones. • We’ve all heard Murphy’s Law, something along the lines of, “If something can go wrong, it will, and usually at the worst time.” There was a real Murphy – Edward A. Murphy, a U.S. Air Force engineer who was working on a rocket-sled experiment in the late 1940s. The project involved mounting 16 accelerator instruments to a participant’s body. There were two ways the 16 sensors could be glued to the mount, and all 16 were installed backwards. Murphy was heard to say, “If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those ways can result in a catastrophe, then someone will do it.” • One of the most often-misquoted lines in movie history is “Play it again, Sam” from the 1942 film “Casablanca.” Most folks believe that leading man Humphrey Bogart uttered the famous phrase. The pianist Sam is being asked to play the song “As Time Goes By.” Ingrid Bergman’s character Ilsa Lund says, “Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.” When Sam objects, she repeats, “Play it, Sam.” Later in the movie, Bogart says, “Play it!” No one ever says, “Play it again, Sam.” • Me Tarzan, you Jane” is another movie line that never happened. In the 1932 film “Tarzan, the Ape Man,” actress Maureen O’Sullivan as Jane Parker

was attempting to teach her language to Tarzan, played by Johnny Weissmuller, actor and former Olympian. Pointing to herself, she said, “Jane,” which Tarzan repeated. Jane then said, “And you? You?” to which he replied, “Tarzan, Tarzan.” • Have you heard the quote attributed to the French philosopher Voltaire? – “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” Although attributed to Voltaire, this quotation was actually that of his biographer Evelyn Beatrice Hall in her 1906 book, The Friends of Voltaire. Voltaire actually did say, “Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so, too” in his 1763 “Essay on Tolerance.” It’s thought that he also wrote in a letter to a colleague: “I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write.” • We all know that “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” but not everyone realizes that the correct quotation is “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned,” penned by English poet William Congreve in his 1697 work, “The Mourning Bride.” • The sultry 1930s diva Mae West is often quoted as saying, “Come up and see me sometime.” In the 1933 movie “She Done Him Wrong,” West, in her role as Lady Lou, utters, “Why don’t you come up sometime and see me?” • Many popular sayings are attributed to the Bible that aren’t really in there. As children, many of us were admonished by our parents with “Cleanliness
HOLLYWOOD -- Have moviegoers tastes changed that much? The 2016 film release schedule reveals 15 documentaries and 10 superhero movies. The documentaries range from O.J Simpson, Frank Zappa, Norman Lear and Anthony Weiner to environment and climate change, stem-cell research, animal rights and cyber warfare. On the superhero side, we’ll be barraged with “Captain America”, “X-Men,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” “Independence Day,” “Tarzan,” “Suicide Squad,” “Doctor Strange,” “Rogue One” and “Assassin’s Creed.” Along those lines, Chris Hemsworth has had a rocky road as a headliner when his films weren’t superherooriented. In 2012, he had four films: “Cabin in the Woods,” which made $36.5 million above cost; “Avengers,” which made $1.5 billion; “Snow White and the Huntsman,” which grossed $133 million and “Red Dawn,” which lost $17 million. In 2013, he had “Rush,” which made a $59 million profit, and “Thor: The
Call Today (250) 832-3361 Dark World,” which brought in $475 million. In 2015, “Blackhat” lost $50 million, “Avengers: Age of Ultron” made $1.5 billion, while “In the Heart of the Sea” tanked, losing $5 million. His latest, “The Huntsman: Winter’s War,” is off to a bad start, earning only $110 million of its $115 million cost. Chris has won awards for his work: a 2012 Teen Choice Award (summer movie star -- male) and a 2013 People’s Choice Award (favorite action-movie star) for “The Avengers” and “Snow White and the Huntsman,” and a 2013 MTV award (for best fight, in “The Avengers”). The public has spoken! They want him super-sized! Superhero films are usually in IMAX and 3D, and it would appear that moviegoers only to go to theaters to see what they can’t get on their electronic devices. *** “Castle” is going for a 10-episode ninth season, but without its female star, Stana Katic. Reports say she wasn’t offered another contract, but since both she and Nathan Fillion are listed as producers, shouldn’t they have had a united front? The show monkeyed around with their relationship (to help ratings?), but it didn’t work. So expect her be killed off. And what’s with Fillion and those AAG reverse-mortgage commercials? He’s 45 years old trying to appeal to the over-60 crowd. Did they think graying his hair would accomplish that? Really! Do we really need another production of “Hairspray,” this time live on NBC with Harvey Fierstein (in drag, as Edna Turnblad), Martin Short (Wilbur), Jennifer Hudson (Motor Mouth Maybelle) and Derek Hough (Corny Collins). I don’t know, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Queen Latifah and James Marsden are still fresh in my mind. Too much hairspray is bad for the ozone! (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
MISQUOTES (continued): is next to godliness,” perhaps an attempt to get us to wash behind our ears! This adage first appeared in a printed sermon by John Wesley in 1769, in which the minister wrote, “Slovenliness is no part of religion. Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness.” Perhaps you think that the old saying, “God helps those who help themselves” is another Biblical truth. In fact, it was Aesop of “Aesop’s Fables” fame who first penned, “the gods help them that help themselves.” In Benjamin Franklin’s 1736 edition of “Poor Richard’s Almanac,” a similar says goes, “One who comes to be purified is helped.” Have you heard folks say, “no rest for the wicked”? The accurate wording is found in Isaiah 57:21, “There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.” And lots of us say, “Money is the root of all evil,” when in fact, the correct wording in I Timothy 6:10 is “the love of money is the root of all evil…” • In the 1995 film “Apollo 13,” Tom Hanks in the role of Commander Jim Lovell says, “Houston, we have a problem.” During the 1970 mission, Apollo 13 astronaut Jack Swigert was the first to say a similar
Can you identify the source of the misquotation, “Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink”? That line is from poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” and really read, “Water, water, everywhere, not any drop to drink.”

1. This author’s correct quote was “The report of my death was an exaggeration.” Who was he? 2. What actor never really said, “You dirty rat!” in any of his films? 3. What statesman actually said, “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat”? 4. What is the correct phrase for the misquoted “The lion shall lie down with the lamb”? 5. Name the fictional character who never said, “Elementary, dear Watson.”
MISQUOTES (continued): phrase, “Okay, Houston, we’ve had a problem here.” NASA in Houston replied, “This is Houston. Say again please,” to which Lovell replied, “Houston, we’ve had a problem. We’ve had a main B bus undervolt.” • The quote, “Well-behaved women seldom make history” has often been attributed to actress Marilyn Monroe. The credit for the line really goes to Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, a Harvard professor and Pulitzer Prize winner who wrote it in a 1976 journal article. • Diehard Trekkies will know that Captain James T. Kirk never said, “Beam me up, Scotty!” in any of the 80 episodes of the original “Star Trek” series, which aired from 1966 to 1969. The closest Captain Kirk came to that phrase was in the 1968 episode “Gamesters of Triskelion,” when he exclaimed, “Beam us up, Mr. Scott!” The animated “Star Trek” series, which ran for two seasons in 1973 – 1974, did have the line, “Beam us up, Scotty!” and the 1986 movie “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home included, “Scotty, beam me up.” The original series’ Mr. Scott was played by actor James Doohan, who entitled his 1996 biography Beam Me Up, Scotty!
• The well-known phrase “A rose by any other name smells just as sweet” has its origins in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet.” But the actual quote reads, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet.” • Speaking of Shakespeare, when we see images of witches stirring a cauldron, the phrase “Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble” comes to mind. The correct phrase, from Act 4, Scene 1 of “Macbeth,” is actually “Double, double, toil and trouble.” Fans of the rock group Led Zeppelin will recognize the words in the first verse of “Stairway to Heaven”, “There’s a lady who’s sure, all that glitters is gold.” The chorus in the Smash Mouth song “All Star” also includes the phrase “All that glitters is gold.” In actuality, this is another Shakespeare misquote that reads correctly, “All that glisters is not gold,” spoken by the Prince of Morocco in “The Merchant of Venice.”

ALLIGATORS
See ya later, Alligator! Take a look at some of these interesting facts about this member of the order Crocodylia. • Early Spanish explorers and settlers in Florida gave the alligator its name. This scaly reptile takes its name from the Spanish word largarto, meaning “the lizard.” • Alligators are native only to the United States and China. In the U.S., Louisiana has the most alligators, but large populations also live in Florida, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, North and South Carolina, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas. Although an American alligator can grow up to 20 feet (6.1 m) long and weigh up to half a ton (454

ALLIGATORS (continued): kg), on average, males grow to about 11 feet (3.4 m) and females to about 8 feet (2.6 m). The Chinese alligator is much smaller, with males averaging a length of 5 feet (1.5 m) and females at about 4.5 feet
“I Love that little paper!”
(1.4 m). The tail accounts for about half of an alligator’s length. • An American alligator has a life expectancy in the wild of nearly 50 years. • The menacing-looking mouth of an American alligator holds between 74 and 80 teeth at a time, but it might go through 2,000 to 3,000 teeth over its lifetime. • Although they seem to have a reputation for attacking humans, alligators are actually quite solitary and very rarely do they go after humans, usually only when provoked or when protecting their young. Their diet consists of fish, turtles, snakes, birds, and small mammals. Occasionally they eat other alligators. • An alligator’s jaws can clamp shut with enough force to break a person’s arm. But the muscles that open its mouth are very weak, so much so that a man can hold a full-grown alligator’s mouth closed with one hand. And although they move very quickly through water, alligators are slow-moving on land. • A female alligator will lay up to 50 eggs at a time, keeping them warm in a nest of rotting vegetation. The temperature of that nest will determine the gender of her offspring. Oddly enough, if the eggs are incubated over 93 degrees F (33.8 C), the embryos develop into males. Females are the result of temperatures below 86 degrees F (30 C), and between 86 and 93 degrees F, an embryo can develop into either gender. About 8 out of 10 baby alligators will be eaten by bobcats, snakes, otters, large fish, raccoons, and other alligators. • One of the main differences between alligators and crocodiles is their environment. Alligators dwell in fresh water, such as ponds, rivers, wetlands, lakes, and swamps, while crocodiles make their home in salt water. An alligator’s nostrils point upward, so they can breathe while the rest of the body is submerged in water. • Although there are about five million American alligators in the southeastern United States, they were once nearly extinct. Years of hunters seeking the valuable hides landed alligators on the endangered species list. When the U.S. fish & wildlife Service prohibited the trade of hides, alligators made such a comeback that they were removed from the list in 1987.
MIGRAINES
In observance of National Migraine and Headache Awareness Month coming up in June, Tidbits shares some information on this serious health issue. • It’s estimated that about 12% of the U.S. population, approximately 36 million Americans, experience migraine headaches.

When serotonin levels fall, blood vessels dilate and the swelling brings on the migraine. • Who gets migraines? The condition is three times more common in women, with 30% of women suffering over a lifetime. It’s most common in the ages from the 20s through the 50s. Migraines seem to occur most between the ages of 35 and 45. Yet, they can also affect children and the elderly. Migraines affect someone in one of every four American households. Most experience a few attacks per month, but 3% of the population experiences chronic migraines, with headaches at least 15 days of each month for at least six months. Eighty percent of those who get migraines have a family history of the malady. If one parent has migraines, a child has a 50% chance of the condition, and a 75% chance if both parents get them. • About 20% of those who get migraines experience an “aura” of visual symptoms shortly before the migraine hits. A person might see flashing lights, wavy lines, or dots, and/or experience tunnel vision or blind spots, and might even include hallucinations. • Several things can trigger a migraine, even a change in the weather! A variance in barometric pressure, humidity, or temperature can bring it on. One study indicates that winds in excess of 23 mph (37 km/hr) increase the risk of migraines. • Certain foods seem to bring on a migraine in

MIGRAiNES (continued): some individuals, especially foods containing nitrates (found in hot dogs and lunch meats). The substance tyramine found in aged cheese, smoked fish, and soy products is another culprit, as well as the flavor enhancer MSG. Many report that eating avocadoes, lentils, and canned meats increases the likelihood of a headache. • Drinking alcohol, not getting enough sleep, stress, hunger, dehydration, and hormonal changes can also bring on a migraine, and even a sudden light glare or certain fragrances. Because the causes are different for each person, physicians suggest keeping a journal as a way to track the triggers. • In ancient times, when migraines were unexplainable, a practice called trepanation was used as early as 7,000 B.C., which involved drilling holes into the skull. In their eyes, it was a way to allow evil spirits to escape. Unbelievably, trepanation was still being practiced up to the 17th century. • Although walking and climbing stairs can worsen the pain, regular workouts seem to help ward off migraines in the first place. Those who exercise for 40 minutes, three times per week often experience less headaches. Others claim that taking Vitamin E and ginko biloba helps prevent migraines. Still others are treated with anti-depressants that may reduce the frequency by regulating the brain’s chemical levels. * “Use clear nail polish to ‘paint’ the bottom of shaving cream cans. Then it will not leave a rust ring no matter where it sits in the tub.” -- E.M. in Texas * For healthy leftovers, use plastic wrap instead of aluminum foil, experts say. You’re more likely to consume items you can see. Stash them front and center in the refrigerator. * Shoes on the right feet? Draw a semi-circle on the soles inside your kid’s shoes, so that when they are placed side by side it makes a circle. Now Junior can figure it out for himself! * “Insert a square of cork board (available at office-supply stores) in an old picture frame. You can use it to store and display earrings or necklaces (use pins to hang chains from). You could even use it as an actual corkboard!” -- A.R. in Michigan * Need a temporary playpen when traveling? How about a blow up pool? Supervision required, but containment achieved. * Heart-healthy oils like olive oil are a must in any cook’s kitchen. However, even if a jar is worthy of display, keep it in a cabinet. Oils break down when exposed to light. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

Mediterranean Pita Steak Sandwich Creating a Turtle Habitat DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I saw a news story about a man who built a miniature “Jurassic Park” landscape for his pet tortoise to play in. I have a little box turtle named “Darlene” that I got for my birthday, and I’m wondering, can I make something like that for my turtle? -- Sarah J., via email DEAR SARAH: Turtle and tortoise owners can get pretty creative with their pets’ enclosures, and it can be fun to do. To make it fun for turtles and tortoises too, any enclosure has two important requirements: It needs to meet their basic needs, and it must be safe for them. If you live in a climate that is not native to your turtle’s species, you’ll need to have an indoor and an outdoor enclosure. The indoor one should have the most ideal climate possible for your turtle, with steady temperature and proper humidity, a couple of places in which to hide, and a sunny corner (or a heat lamp) where she can go to warm up if necessary. An outdoor enclosure gives your turtle a place to roam on warm, sunny days. It can and should be bigger than Darlene’s indoor enclosure, but ideally should be covered with mesh or wire to prevent predators from getting in. You’ll also need to build walls around the enclosure so Darlene can’t see out. It should have some nice flat rocks to climb up on, a shallow pool of water to rest in, a few shady spots and plenty of places to burrow in and hide. Always have fresh drinking water available and give Darlene things to snack on, like fresh greens, grasses and a little bit of fruit. Send your questions or pet care tips to ask@pawscorner.com.
