Dollars and $en$e by David Uffington

By Samantha Weaver

● Those who traveled by air over the recent holiday season may sympathize with political satirist Mark Russell, who made the following sage observation: “The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage.” ● If you’re planning a visit to rural Texas anytime soon, you might want to keep in mind that in that state, it’s against the law to milk a cow that belongs to someone else. ● The elephant shrew is more closely related to the elephant than to the shrew. ● You may have heard of bridezilla, but what about momzilla? In a survey by David’s Bridal, 22 percent of respondents claimed that it was the mother of the bride who caused the most conflict when planning the event, while another 22 percent said that it was the mother of the groom. You might want to take these results with a grain of salt, though, considering the fact that the survey respondents were actually brides themselves. ● Even an honest person might have some sympathy for the deceit attempted by a man named Corey Taylor in 2007. He was so desperate to get out of his cellphone contract without paying the high fee that he attempted to fake his own death. Unfortunately for him, it didn’t work. ● You may be surprised to learn that condoms date back to at least the 1600s. ● If you’re afraid that peanut butter will stick to the roof of your mouth, you suffer from arachibutyophobia. *** Thought for the Day: “My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I’ve finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already.” -- Dave Barry

David Uffington regrets that he cannot personally Becky reader Bromquestions, but will incorporate them into his answer column possible. Send email to columnreply3@ BZ 4Cwhenever [P.O. rate] gmail.com.

• More than 100 million people watch the Super Bowl every year. Only one other event has surpassed that number, 1983’s TV series finale of M*A*S*H*. • In terms of the amount of food eaten on any particular day, Super Bowl Sunday is second only to Thanksgiving. It should be no surprise that Super Bowl Sunday is the highest pizza sales day of the year. Domino’s Pizza alone sells more than 11 million pizzas that day, about 80% more than a normal Sunday. An estimated 1.25 billion chicken wings will be consumed during the game. Back in 2000, game-watchers ate about 8 million pounds of avocados during the Super Bowl, but with that industry’s increased advertising and emphasis on guacamole snacks, that number has skyrocketed to 79 million lbs. If you’re counting, that’s about 158 million avocados.

Never Wax Again!

Can you tell me when “Game of Thrones” will be back for a new season? -- Bobby T., via email

A: The phenomenal drama/historical-fan-

tasy series will be back for its fifth season sometime in April (an exact date has not yet been announced) on HBO. However, you can relive some of season four on the big screen in IMAX format before that. In limited release (about 150 IMAX theaters) beginning Jan. 23, the last two episodes of season four’s “Game of Thrones” will be shown the way lots of fans think it should be aired all the time -- in movie theaters. Those who do attend these limited showings also will be treated to an exclusive trailer for season five. Check your local listings to see if it will be on the big screen in your town. According to “Entertainment Weekly,” there have been reports of a season-five preview special to air on HBO, perhaps as soon as February. Fingers crossed for that too! ***

Film Salutes Flag Ladies of Freeport Every Tuesday morning since Sept. 11, 2001, the Freeport Flag Ladies -- Carmen, Elaine and JoAnn -- have stood on a corner in downtown Freeport, Maine, holding flags to honor those in uniform who’ve worked to guarantee our freedoms. Rain, wind, snow, ice, heat of summer ... they haven’t missed a single day. On most Tuesday mornings, the ladies aren’t alone. People come from all walks of life to stand with them: leaders of groups like the American Legion or the Veterans of Foreign Wars, parents of active-duty military, or school kids or neighbors. Many are veterans. But the ladies do so much more than bring people together on Tuesday mornings. Wearing their instantly identifiable flag shirts, they attend military funerals, take photos of incoming and outgoing service personnel at the airport and post them on the website (FreeportFlagLadies.com), send packages to veterans in hospitals, place flags at veteran cemeteries, and more. Now you can meet these lovely ladies in a film that’s been made about them, and hear their philosophies and beliefs about heroes and freedom, and why they do what they do. A Maine filmmaker has produced a spot-on documentary that captures the essence of the Freeport Flag Ladies. The film One Tuesday Morning is available now on Vimeo for $2.99 to rent (for a 48-hour period) or for $8.99 to buy. The link is: vimeo.com/ ondemand/onetuesdaymorning. If you prefer to use DVDs, one is being created now and should be available within a month or so. The price likely will be in the $15 range. If you’d like to wait for the DVD and be notified when it’s ready, send an email note to info@onetuesdaymorning.com and you’ll be put on the list. To watch the trailer, visit onetuesdaymorning.com. Don’t miss the Extras section, linked from the left.

In the United States, if one person, say, kills another person and the state has the evidence to convict beyond a reasonable doubt, the guilty party We scoop, disinfect and remove yo weekly only $9.7 goes to jail. The guilty party ispoop not allowed to for cavort amongst the rest of us non-killers -- even if he doesn’t do it all the time. Most of us prefer it that way. So when it comes to dogs, why is it that this notion that he doesn’t do it all the time carries so much weight? He growls, but not all the time… He snaps, but not all the time… He bites, but he doesn’t do it all the time… Would you snuggle up on the couch with someone who had stabbed several people -- but over the course of 20 years? Would you invite a killer into your home and explain to your children that there is nothing to be afraid of because he doesn’t do it all the time? The idea is laughable. It’s also reckless and irresponsible -- just like those mothers and fathers who insist on allowing an aggressive dog to cohabit with their small children. A man called a few days ago because his newly adopted dog bit his niece and nephew. He’d had the dog for two days. And the clincher: His wife is expecting. His assessment of the situation: “He doesn’t do it all the time.” This dog’s only been in his life for 48 hours. While I suppose technically an average of one bite a day isn’t “all the time,” that’s semantics. What about priorities? I talked with a man last week whose dog is growling and snapping at his kids. When I broke the news that he has to find a new home for the dog, he asked, “What do I tell my kids?” This is a concern for many parents, that their kids won’t understand why Mommy and Daddy are taking their dog away. They don’t want to be the heavy, but playing the heavy from time to time is a part of good parenting. Here’s what you tell your kids: Our dog is not a safe animal. He can have a good home, but he can’t live with children. We’re going to find a better CASEY’S CORNER: Turn to page 10

From a reader: “You called on Sunday morning and said we should not keep our dog (we have five kids, and our dog is showing aggression toward their friends). As difficult as this was to hear, you made a lot of sense and we are scheduling an appointment to take her back to ARF. Perhaps you could give us some guidance on how to select the appropriate dog/puppy for our family and how to train it properly so that we will have success next time. We don’t want to have our hearts broken again; we want to do it right. Thank you so much for caring enough to respond so quickly.” The proof is in the pudding.

M.D.

Mystery Bruise Appears, Vanishes As If by Magic DEAR DR. ROACH: I have just returned from seeing my doctor, and was told that the cause of what I experienced is a mystery! In the late afternoon, my husband and I were sitting at the kitchen table. He noticed that a bruise was forming on my right temple -- a dime-size purple mark, with a bump near the hairline. Over the next few hours the bruise grew larger, with red discoloration down the right side of my face, to the jaw. I had not been injured in any way, and it did not hurt! I called a 24-hour advice nurse, and was told I probably had broken a blood vessel. Just to be on the safe side I called my doctor for an appointment the next day, but my doctor didn’t have anything to look at. When I got up, all the bruising and discoloration was gone! She told me that if it had been a broken blood vessel there would still be some discoloration. So therefore it was, and still is, a mystery. Do you have any idea what this might be or what could have caused it? -- C.C. ANSWER: I agree with the nurse that it likely was a broken blood vessel, which can happen spontaneously to anyone. Once the blood is under the skin, it gets cleaned away by cells with enzymes that break down the blood. The color typically goes from dark red to green to yellow. This way, we can tell approximately how old a bruise is. Very superficial bleeding also can move, as the blood literally gets pulled by gravity (which is why you had a darkening down to the jaw). I suspect that while asleep, the remainder got pulled into the hairline or lower down, where it could no longer be seen. Many people have come down with another mysterious illness, chronic fatigue syndrome. The booklet on it explains the illness and its treatment. To obtain a copy, write: Dr. Roach -- No. 304W, 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.

Bone dishes were crescent-shaped to fit snugly next to dinner plates and were usually part of a dinner set.

Fish serving set was made by John Round and Sons.

You have a Victorian silver-plated knife and fork fish set that was made in the late 1800s or the very early 1900s. The set was used for serving fish dinners. As a rule, the knives were around 11 to 12 inches long and the forks were around 9 to 10 inches long. John Round and Sons used the mark you described. They were located in Sheffield, England, from 1874 to 1962. The handles were made of bone. Many similar sets were made in both England and the United States. Sterling silver serving pieces were always marked sterling. Since yours didn’t include that in the mark, they are silver plated. Silver plated fish sets with bone handles are selling in the range of $50 to $100. * * *
