Hiking happiness not happenstance BY ALEXIS BECHMAN

Like so many, I sit most days at a computer. By the end of the week, a lack of aerobic activity has thrown my mood south, making it all too easily to slip into the doldrums. If I let them get a hold of me, I can wallow a whole weekend away sleeping, eating, napping and sitting some more in front of the computer screen. Then I start it all over again. Our bodies were not deigned to sit all day and have surely not adapted to our new way of making a living, which often involves sitting in office cubicles. Too much sitting, I find, leads to a sour mood. But there is one thing that always pulls me out if I can just get my boots on and kick myself out of the house — a good hike. And countless studies suggest that regular exercise not only boosts mood, it can also prevent depression. University of Arizona professor Andrew Weil and author of “Spontaneous Happiness” writes that the ever-increasing rate of depression in the United States is due in part to inactive lifestyles. “Note that behaviors strongly associated with depression — reduced physical activity and human contact, overconsumption of processes food, a desire for endless distraction — are the very behaviors that more and more people now can indulge in, or are even forced to embrace by the nature of their sedentary indoor jobs,” Weil writes. While I certainly won’t ever get hurt sitting at my desk and the never-ending diversion of Facebook and Pinterest is tempting, I also won’t risk seeing something amazing. So last weekend, determined to stretch my legs and give me something to

write about, I decided to stop at a trailhead I have driven past countless times on my way to Pine. The Pine Trailhead, roughly a quarter mile south of Pine on the east side of Highway 87, connects with a larger network of trails that offer hours of wandering enjoyment. A section of the Arizona Trail bisects at the parking area along with the Highline National Recreation Trail. The Highline has more than 100 miles of trails and six trailheads offering numerous backpacking possibilities. The Pine Trailhead sits on the far west end of the Highline Trail system. On the agenda for the day was the Donahue Trail which, according to maps, promised to top out near Milk Ranch Point and provide expansive views of the valley, but at the cost of a steep elevation gain. The trail starts out easy enough. Sitting at the base of the Mogollon Rim, it meanders through one of the Rim Country’s best features, the largest stand of ponderosa pine in the world. After only a few hundred feet, the forest closes in more tightly, leading to a small creek, which the trail crosses over several times. As I skipped over the creek, I felt my mood lifting already. It was only slightly deflated when I hiked another five minutes, looked up and realized the trail was making a beeline for the Rim through a series of steep switchbacks. Because horsemen cut most of the trails in the area in piecemealed sections to link homesteads and ranches, they are generally steep, rocky and rugged, with elevations ranging from 5,000 to 8,000 feet. Luckily, even on a weekend, the trail is not well traveled, so my grimaces were

only shared with my dog and hiking partner. The going got tougher, however, when the Donahue Trail split from the Highline Trail. The Highline Trail meanwhile continues east along the base of the Rim for another 50 miles, ending at the 260 Trailhead. Every year, trail runners race over the trail during the Zane Grey Highline Trail 50-mile run. Last year, the race’s winner finished in just over eight hours. For the average hiker, the Donahue Trail will take at least several hours to complete. Although the elevation was ever increasing, so continued my mood. With each turn in switchbacks, a more expansive view of Pine emerged.

RIM REVIEW • VOLUME 14, NO. 16

To the south, the canyon leading into Tonto Natural Bridge State Park cut through the horizon. Flanking the path were tangled, red shoots of manzanita and scrub oak. After two miles of huffing up some slick, steep sections of trail, the path leveled out, with a bluff offering panoramic views of the Rim Country. Sitting near a patch of swaying yucca, enjoying a Snickers, I felt pretty content. Even though my cubicle legs had resisted every step, my mood was the highest it had been all week. Riding the high, I breezed the downhill. Now if only they made a hiking app for the computer, I would never have to leave my desk again.

Vi (Latifah) is the director of a small-town church choir with dreams of winning the National Joyful Noise Competition. Choir veteran G.G. (Parton) thinks it’s time the whole choir thing should go “Sister Act 2” and get a new style. Soon, G.G.’s talented bad-boy grandson (Jeremy Jordon) and Vi’s talented-choirgirl daughter (Keke Palmer) start getting too close. For those who cannot digest TV’s “Glee,” steer wide and clear of this one. The songs can be catchy and impressive and even a little uplifting.

This time it’s Gina Carano, a mixed-martial arts fighter trying on her first movie role as Mallory Kane, an assassin bent on getting revenge on those who betrayed her. The story is familiar, but well-executed Director Steven Soderbergh utilizes his female lead well. You can tell it’s her in the action sequences, and when she’s not fighting, she’s surrounded by more experienced actors.

Carano makes a great action hero because you believe she really could do that move where she strangles a hitman with her legs while twisting his arm. “Kinyarwanda” — In this drama, different stories are woven together to give a multidimensional perspective on the massacre in Rwanda in 1994. The characters include a young couple and their son — all three are in danger because the parents are from different ethnic groups. This, however, isn’t a story about survival, but of the issues involved before, during and after the genocide. DOG OF THE WEEK “New Year’s Eve” (PG-13) — What happens when you pack as many stars as you can fit into a romantic comedy set around one day? An unlovable lump of cameos and an annoying ad campaign where it’s obvious that many of the stars couldn’t be paid to do a promo shot. This movie is the toxic runoff created by overpressured mediocrity. It’s the fruitcake of film; a dense, unwanted amalgamation of unused tidbits that forces its way into our lives around the holidays.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

Travel news from an agent’s perspective Often in my articles I suggest you use an experienced and qualified travel agent to assist you in planning a vacation. They are helpful in so many ways. They can make your air reservations, book hotels, cruises, tours, sightseeing, travel insurance and handle just about anything else that pertains to travel. You often do not have to pay for their assistance. The hotels, cruise lines etc. do, however in the case of air bookings, most travel agents will charge a small, flat fee for their time as the airlines usually no longer pay commission. I have used a travel agent located in Fountain Hills for more than 10 years and they have never failed me. A few days ago I KEN BROOKS drove to Fountain Hills and interviewed my agent for this article. I wanted to get from her the latest information and trends in travel this spring. Roxanne reports that the top four picks of travelers in Arizona are: Hawaii, Europe, Panama Canal cruises and Caribbean cruising. She says Hawaii is by far the most booked vacation site, followed by the others. Why is Hawaii so popular? She reports that travelers find it safe, and it’s still the United States. Hawaii has great hotels and resorts, perfect golf courses, great weather, fine beaches and almost everything for the vacationer is there. Flights are frequent and not as expensive as some other locations the same distance away. Several cruise lines now offer Panama Canal cruises either from Los Angeles/San Diego to Florida or reverse. They are usually two weeks in length with some other interesting ports included in the itinerary. You might want to look at what is offered by Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and Celebrity. The top international picks of Arizona travelers are: Italy, United Kingdom, Norway and the Baltic countries, Spain and Portugal, Cancun, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand, Tahiti and Fiji, European river cruises and Canada. Roxanne said that she could hardly believe how popular European river cruis-

ing has become in the past three years. Each of the popular river cruise companies have added new and larger river boats to their inventory, which makes more room for passengers that wish to cruise the mighty rivers in western and middle Europe. If you are interested in taking one of these, you almost need to book 10 to 12 months ahead now. The summer Olympics are in London and vicinity this year. The city will be crowded and if the games have no interest to you, plan to visit there at another time. I understand there is renewed interest in traveling to animal viewing areas of Africa. The most popular locations are East Africa and South Africa. The tourist camps are now quite luxurious and expensive. The travel agency will give you brochures and other information if you like. I am told that cruising Vietnam and visiting Cambodia is gaining popularity. Many former military personnel wish to return to see what the areas are like today. Cruising the Duoro River in Portugal has gained popularity and Avalon, Viking and AMA river cruise companies offer cruises here. There are some travel specials presently available. Celebrity Cruises is offering a buy one full fare and the second person gets 50 percent off on the Silhouette. Avalon River cruises also have discounts on its Blue Danube cruises presently. The Blue Danube Discovery Wine River Cruise, which is 13 days from Budapest to Prague, is offering $500 off per person. Departing July 22, 2012, this special winethemed cruise’s starting price is $3,264 including in the discount. Keep in mind this price includes several wine tastings, onboard food and wine pairing, shore excursions and much more. Star Clippers, a firm specializing in actual sailboats, is offering up to 55 percent off selected sailings for summer 2012 in Europe. These fine sailing boats have been refurbished and offer a different style of cruising. You can visit ports in the Northern Cyclades, Greece, Montenegro and Croatia, Sicily, Amalfi, Italy, Corsica, Spain, Morocco, Portugal and more. Most cruises are seven days. Our travel agent says that the top destinations in the U.S. not only include Hawaii

but also Florida with Orlando, Tampa and Daytona the most popular locations along with Las Vegas, California and Alaska being hot this year. Roxanne states that most Alaska travelers include a cruise to this destination. I understand travelers are still visiting the Holy Land this year and Turkey is also gaining popularity. As for cruising the Caribbean I am told the most popular mid-range cruise line is Royal Caribbean International and for luxury travelers from Arizona they choose Regent, Celebrity, Oceana and Crystal cruises. So-called exotic destinations would include Asia, around the world cruises and far away locations you may not have heard of. I read in Travel Weekly magazine that Nicaragua is on the verge of becoming popular with American travelers. You fly into the Central American country to Managua and travel out from there. I understand there are interesting small hotels you may stay in, plus good beaches that are still almost empty. You can book air and reservations through a travel agent. Princess Cruises will position their Sun Princess in Japan next year for cruises through Asia from there. You’ll be seeing ads in magazines later this year giving more information. Disney Cruise Lines’ new and larger Disney Fantasy is now in the water and entertaining passengers as it cruises the Caribbean. Three Broadway shows are scheduled for each one-week cruise. They are “Disney’s Aladdin,” “Disney’s Believe” and “Disney’s Wishes.” I understand the ship is fabulous and exiting for all ages. My travel agent for the last decade is AZ Trails Travel located in Fountain Hills at 16650 E. Palisades Blvd., Suite. 106. Zip 85268. Their toll free number is 1-888-7994284. My agent is Roxanne Boryczki. You may have seen Roxanne and her husband Hank at the Payson Business Showcase in their travel booth a few weeks ago. They are members of the Rim Country Chamber of Commerce and also plan the trips offered by the Payson Regional Medical Center Senior Center, 215 N. Beeline Highway.

by several of the most informed travel agents I have met. Why use a travel agent? Professional travel agents have strong working relationships with travel suppliers from airlines to cruise lines, tour companies and hotels. They receive daily updates on deals and special offers not always published on the Internet. They also have access to the latest in computer reservations technology allowing them to be familiar with the latest reservation details. These good people can save you hours of combing the Internet for travel ideas and deals. A travel agent works for you, not the suppliers, and always has you in mind when dealing with the various entities. AZ Trails Travel agents are all continuously trained to keep up with changes in the marketplace and offers from suppliers. The team has more than 100 years of combined travel experience spanning most areas of the world. Ask them, they probably have been there. They can also assist you with travel insurance, which is not cheap, but suggested to protect your investment. Give them a call the next time you are interested in travel. You’ll be glad you did.

Upcoming studio tour introduces artists’ private side BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

When Rim Country artists open their studios to the public during the 2012 Payson Art League ’Neath the Rim Studio Tour, they will be sharing their private sides. The public side is the work they display in galleries and at the shows in which they participate. The place where the art happens is private, whether you are a painter, sculptor, jeweler, a writer or musician. It’s private because it is where the artist is free to make false starts — to fail. The 2012 tour is from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday, May 4, Saturday, May 5 and Sunday, May 6. More than 20 artists will participate. Among them will be Brenda Baker, Angela Godac, Glenda Roark and Dong Soon Trisdale. BRENDA BAKER

The term abstract/realism describes Baker’s work. By cascading background colors and shapes a mood is created, she explains. These colors and shapes are then defined into a specific subject matter. The subject matter as defined is non-objective, abstract or realistic. “My paintings as a unit are held together by a specific color palette,” Baker said. “I not only allow the subjects of my work to stand alone, but also interlace the subject with the foreground and or the background. How I treat the subjects of my paintings depends on what ‘is’ the final intent of each painting.” A wide variety of subjects are found in both Baker’s own creations and commissioned work. Her work is found in both private and corporate collections in the U.S. and internationally.

Angela Godac

“I am a proud 4th generation Paysonite, having lived here all my life. Horses and music have nearly always consumed my life and I love them still,” Godac said. In 1996, upon the passing of her father, Godac said she had an immediate leading to make his headstone. “An endeavor such as this was totally foreign to me,” she said. “Further leading brought me to a local artist, the late Robert Barela, who became my wonderful mentor. I completed my father’s memorial, word got around, and since then, I have produced nearly 100 additional works,” she said. Godac’s work offers service and attention to detail in memorials, signs, home décor and more in various mediums. DONG SOON TRISDALE

ambush. Ranger Holmes with several Indian trackers could not follow any trail from the murder scene as the killers had taken great care to cover their tracks. The only clues were 30-30 shells found at the scene. Additional officers were placed on the case, but days passed with frustration for lack of clues or tips. However, if progress was being made it was kept strictly silent, and no word got out. As a deputy sheriff, Charlie Edwards had a number of enemies, and a list had been assembled. Then suddenly arrests were made. It was no less than the arrest of Tonto Basin rancher John Cline and his two young sons, Joe, 17, and Jimmy, 15.[1] The sheriff’s office would not state what circumstantial evidence they had against Cline, only that they were sure he was the one who murdered Edwards, assisted by his sons. Joe had already been indicted by a grand jury for horse stealing, and Edwards had made the arrest. For several years it had been known that a bitter enmity existed between the Clines and Edwards over some cattle deals, and Deputy Edwards had served papers on the Clines for several other brushes with the law. Only

a week earlier, Edwards had confided in friends that he was expecting trouble, and that he feared for his life. Jimmy Cline had been at Roosevelt when Edwards arrived there on his way home from Globe. The young Cline was observed hastening out of town at four o’clock and heading for home even though he had planned to stay at Roosevelt for a week. He raced ahead of Edwards, who stopped at a friend’s ranch on the way up Tonto Basin. The assassination happened at six o’clock. It appeared that Jimmy warned his dad that Edwards would be coming along the trail in the dark. As John Cline was given opportunity to tell his side of the story, he had a number of eyewitnesses testify that he was working on his haystack when they all heard the shots. They thought them simply to be neighbors hunting or at target practice. He also had witnesses to say he never had gotten mad at Edwards, though Edwards “had abused him on several occasions.” Others testified that Edwards was reckless, and at one time Cline had prevented him from killing a man by knocking Edwards’ gun up and pleading with him not to commit murder.

More witnesses appeared to testify that it was Edwards who was the violent one, and that Cline was the peacemaker. The preliminary hearings and then the Grand Jury went on for five weeks, and at last the Clines were released due to insufficient evidence in the case. The Silver Belt concluded, “It is very improbable that the slayers of Edwards will ever be brought to justice, and the crime will go down into history as one of the many mysterious murders which have occurred in the Tonto country and of which the perpetrators have never been punished.” SOURCES: “Graham County history: Mt.

COVER STORY | TERESA McQUERREY

Just about anything you can buy at a retail store can be found at one of the many thrift stores in Rim Country. Yes, the merchandise is gently used, but that’s reflected in the big savings on everything from clothing and shoes to furniture, antiques, toys, tools, dishes, cookware, craft items, home decor and more.

HIDDEN TREASURES thrill of finding The thrill thrift store steal steal a thrift I admit, I am not a frequent thrift store shopper. However, there are times when the bug bites and I answer the call of the thrill of finding a thrift store steal. Usually it is for furniture or something for the kitchen. The call today is to find the perfect coffee mug — I broke the one I’d been using at the office when I started to clean it and it went flying out of my hands. (An omen: cleaning is bad). Of the many thrift stores in town, I will most likely make a stop at the Time Out Thrift Shop — usually when one of the pieces of furniture they set out in front of the building catches my eye. That is why I am going to head over to the Humane Society Thrift Store — driving in to work I saw they had put a “Morticia” chair out front. You remember the big, fan-backed chair in which Morticia (played by Carolyn Jones) held court on the old Addams Family television series. I always thought that was the neatest chair. I don’t think I will buy it, but I would like to get a closer look at it. A while back I had bought a new cookbook and the author recommended having a small Le Creuset (enameled cast iron) casserole in your kitchen arsenal. This brand is very expensive, but very durable, so I decided to see if I could find one on the many thrift store shelves in the Rim Country. No luck; but was I able to check out all the various

inventories. Naturally, these change frequently. So, who knows? Maybe when I do the legwork for this story I will find one — and that coffee mug I have in mind (something large, but with a delicate design … I saw what I want in a catalog, but I’d have to buy four for about $30 with shipping and handling… so, thrift stores, here I come). Probably my best thrift store score was a set of china, a service for six with a sweet little pattern of ivy leaves, plus serving dishes for about $36. I found it at the Goodwill that once occupied the space where Urgent Care and Anytime Fitness now reside. Another good buy was from a thrift store Debbie Rawsthorne had on Main Street years ago. It was a handmade sweater; very heavy. I loved it and still pull it on in cool weather. It is so heavy, it’s warm enough to keep the furnace thermostat about five degrees lower. It’s fraying at the cuffs and too shabby to wear in public, but it sure is warm. OK — I hit about every thrift shop in town — the ones that raise funds for other organizations and services. I was in search of just the right replacement for the shattered coffee cup I use at work — and I found two and spent 50 cents. Actually I found a few more things: three tablecloths; some pillowcases; an electric wok; a cute, little teapot; a pretty trinket holder; and an unopened package of three flexible cutting “boards” — yes, sometimes you can find brand new goods at thrift stores. I spent $19 (including the 50 cents for my coffee cups). I checked out the Payson Area Habitat at Humanity ReStore, but the inventory is a little sparse right now. Manager Cindy Kofile said there is a real need for donations. The most popular thing sold at the store is gently

used furniture, but there is also a need for appliances. “When people are buying new appliances we’d like them to call us to come get their old ones. A lot of people can’t afford to buy new, so we can really help by having used appliances available,” Kofile said. She said ReStore volunteers will take the appliances away for free. Following is the lowdown on the not-for-profit thrift stores in Rim Country. In this tough economy, you may be able to make your money go farther with the bargains to be found at stores like these.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH | PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D.

When medicines fail to quell heartburn DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am 25. I have a serious case of GERD. I’ve been put on four different medicines. They aren’t working. I also have palpitations throughout the day. I’ve been told by doctors and nurses that there is nothing dangerous about them. I’d like to know if this true. — J.C. ANSWER: GERD — gastroesophageal reflux disorder — is heartburn. It’s the upward spurting of stomach acid and digestive juices into the esophagus, the swallowing tube, a place that is not able to cope with these corrosive juices the way the stomach is. Eliminate or go easy on foods that make GERD worse: citrus fruits; tomatoes; onions; carbonated drinks; spicy, fatty or fried foods; chocolate; peppermint; and caffeine. If you’re overweight, weight loss lessens GERD symptoms. Don’t lie down after eating. Don’t smoke. Sleep with your head, chest and stomach on a slope by putting 6-inch blocks under the bedposts at the head of your bed. That position keeps stomach acid in the stomach. Don’t wear anything that constricts your stomach, like tight pants or tight belts. Medicines called “proton pump inhibitors” nearly completely turn off acid production. Nexium, Prevacid,

Prilosec, Protonix, Aciphex and Dexilant are their names. If you still have heartburn while on these medicines, it’s OK to use an antacid along with them. If medicines fail, other causes of heartburn need consideration, things like bile reflux or eosinophilic esophagitis. If these conditions aren’t found, then surgical treatment of GERD is an option that’s open to you. Palpitations mean a thumping or racing heart. They can be felt as a thud in the chest. The cause is an extra beat — or more correctly, a premature beat — one that comes before it should. The beat after a premature beat is delayed. During the delay, the heart fills with more blood than usual, and that causes a thump in the chest when the heart empties. Premature beats are almost always innocent and need no treatment. You can believe your doctors and nurses. The booklet on GERD explains this common malady and its treatment. To order a copy, write: Dr. Donohue — No. 501W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Can you give me insight into

the Hamman-Rich syndrome? My father passed away from it. — L.R. ANSWER: I can tell you only a little, because only a little is known about it. It’s a lung injury that comes on suddenly, with damage to the lung air sacs (the alveoli) and the spaces between the air sacs, the interstitium. The cause is unknown. Because of such destruction, oxygen cannot get into the blood. Patients are severely short of breath, have a fever and they cough. The only medicines are ones to keep the person going as best as possible. There is no cure medicine. Even with a ventilator, death happens to more than 60 percent of these patients. It’s an illness that reminds doctors that they don’t have an answer for every malady. You and your family have my condolences. *** Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

STRANGE BUT TRUE | SAMANTHA WEAVER

Colonel Sanders began selling chicken at 65 • It was British doctor and author Alec Bourne who made the following sage observation: “It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.” • In 2007, a world record was set off the coast of Brazil when a single wave was caught by 84 surfers. • Have you ever heard of a book called “Never Again” by Doug Nufer? Probably not — it’s not on any bestseller lists and hasn’t been reviewed by any notable critics. It’s quite possibly unique in literary history, however; in its entire 192 pages, not a single word — even basic words such as a, an, the, of and for — is used twice.

• If you were to stack up a million $1 bills, they would weigh about one ton. • The Twist dance craze in the 1960s changed the culture in America and spread around the world. Most people don’t realize, though, that the song “The Twist,” which started the fad, wasn’t originally sung by Chubby Checker, though he was the one who sent the single up the charts and has since been irrevocably associated with the dance. The song was originally written and performed by an R&B singer named Hank Ballard. A deejay in Baltimore saw teenagers dancing to Ballard’s song and called Dick Clark, host of “American Bandstand.” Clark loved it and invited Ballard to per-

form the song on the show, but it didn’t work out. Instead, Clark found someone else to perform the song: Ernest Evans, who changed his name to Chubby Checker. It made his career. • Colonel Sanders started selling chicken when he was 65 years old, and his only goal was to make $1,000 a month. *** Thought for the Day: “It takes only one drink to get me drunk. The trouble is, I can’t remember if it’s the thirteenth or the fourteenth.” — George Burns © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Temper your typical Aries urge to charge into a situation and demand answers. Instead, let the Lamb’s gentler self emerge to deal with a problem that requires delicacy. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You are aware of what’s going on, so continue to stand by your earlier decision, no matter how persuasive the counter-arguments might be. Money pressures soon will ease. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) By all means, have fun and enjoy your newly expanded social life. But don’t forget that some people are depending on you to keep promises that are very important to them. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You need to wait patiently for an answer to a workplace problem and not push for a decision. Remember: Time is on your side. A financial matter needs closer attention. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You now have information that can influence that decision you planned to make. But the clever Cat will consult a trusted friend or family member before making a major move. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Good news: You’re finding that more doors are opening for you to show what you can do, and you don’t even have to knock very hard to get the attention you’re seeking. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Your gift for creating order out of chaos will help you deal with a sudden rush of responsibilities that would threaten someone less able to balance his or her priorities. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Congratulations. Your energy levels are coming right back up to normal — just in time to help you tackle some worthwhile challenges and make some important choices. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) The sage Sagittarian should demand a full explanation of inconsistencies that might be cropping up in what had seemed to be a straightforward deal. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A conflict between obligations to family and to the job can create stressful problems. Best advice: Balance your dual priorities so that one doesn’t outweigh the other. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Don’t guess, speculate or gossip about that so-called “mystery” situation at the workplace. Bide your time. An explanation will be forthcoming very soon. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Boredom might be creeping in and causing you to lose interest in a repeat project. Deal with it by flipping over your usual routine and finding a new way to do an old task. BORN THIS WEEK: You can warm the coldest heart with your lyrical voice and bright smile. You find yourself at home, wherever you are. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.
