Page A-2—Seniors Today—September 26, 2014

Aone-track mind is used inreference to a personwhose thoughts are pre-occupied with one sub-

ject or interest. This is basically so butsome can carry that thought a step fur-ther… for example, reading music, read-ing the lyrics, and singing… all threeat the same time, but… others can’tdo all three at once… hence, anotherkind of one-track mind.

At this stage of life I would love tobe able to play the piano. As a kid, I hadevery opportunity to learn to play. Fora few weeks I had a music teacher whowould point to the page in the musicbook that she wanted me to play. I re-member at the end of a lesson, she oncesaid, “Next week we will work on Wig-wam.” Before the next lesson, I mem-orized the music. When she returned, Ilooked at the music book as if I wasreading it... and I played it from mem-ory. That got me through a few lessonsbut it wasn’t the right time in my lifeto realize and grasp the importance ofmusic in my life so I gave it up.

Some of us have a brain that movesten times faster than our verbal appa-ratus, which thinks through and men-tally finishes with the subject beforegetting the words out. Is that a com-mon thing among us? Some think of theunfinished sentences as a memory loss.

There's no point growing old if youdon’t have a sense of humor. Here arethree signs of old age: The first is mem-ory loss... I can't remember the othertwo. Oh, well.

Then there’s the business of talkingat the same time as everyone else. Insome of us, that causes a short stop andagain, loss of memory. I got a chuckleout of the following poetic message Ifound on internet:

When I’m a little old lady, then I’ll live with my children and bring themgreat joy.

To repay all I’ve had from each girland each boy. I shall draw on the wallsand scuff up the floor; run in and outwithout closing the door.

I’ll hide frogs in the pantry, socksunder my bed, and whenever they scoldme, I’ll hang my head.

I’ll run and I’ll romp, always fritteraway… the time to be spent doingchores every day.

I’ll pester my children when they areon the phone. As long as they’re busy,I won’t leave them alone.

Hide candy in closets, rocks in adrawer… and never pick up what I dropon the floor. 

Dash off to the movies and not washa dish. I’ll plead for allowance when-ever I wish.

I’ll stuff up the plumbing and delugethe floor. As soon as they’ve mopped it,I’ll flood it some more.

When they correct me, I’ll lie downand cry, kicking and screaming, not atear in my eye.

I’ll take all their pencils and flash-lights and then… when they buy newones, I’ll take them again.

I’ll spill glasses of milk to completeevery meal… eat my banana and justdrop the peel.

Put toys on the table, spill jam on thefloor. I’ll break lots of dishes as thoughI were four.

What fun I shall have, what joy itwill be to live with my children… justthe way they lived with me.

Give it your all and… remember tostay on track.

You can make gifts whileyou are alive, or uponyour death. Either way,you can make gifts out-

right or in a manner that restricts use. Making gifts while alive does not

always save taxes later. If you do makelifetime gifts, do not give away morethan you can afford, because once it isgiven, you cannot take it back.

Gifts made during lifetime are sub-ject to gift tax if they exceed the $14,000cumulative annual gift tax exemptionper recipient ($28,000 for married cou-ples). Annual gifts that exceed the ex-emption are subject to gift tax, requir-ing a gift tax return. If the return showsa taxable gift, that counts against yourestate tax exemption. If you die withless than the estate tax exemption ($5.34million), no tax is ever due. If you diewith a taxable estate, the taxable giftreduces the estate tax exemption.

When making a gift during lifetime,certain types of gifts do not countagainst the gift tax exemption. One canpay certain medical, dental, or tuitionexpenses directly to a provider withoutreducing the gift tax allowance. Youcan also set up certain approved educa-tion accounts that are not taxable gifts.

Be careful in opening ITF bank ac-counts or trust for minor accounts, as theaccount might belong to the youngerperson immediately, or at age eighteen.Also, if the designated owner of UGTMA dies, then probate may be re-quired to designate a new owner.

Whether you make a gift during life-time, or make it after death, you canmake it subject to a trust in order toprotect the beneficiary for a period oftime. It is more expensive to do that dur-ing lifetime, because it would be anirrevocable trust. This is usually onlydone when one has a taxable estate.After death, you can make a continu-ing trust inside a will, or inside a trust.

by George & Peggy Goldtrap

F or almost thirty years, Peg andI have been consultants and con-tributing editors of a humor pub-lication designed specifically for

church related use. It is called The JoyfulNoiseletter and is published, (paper and online), about 10 times each year. We werefirst introduced to the Noiseletter while ona speaking engagement in upstate NewYork. Our host gave us a copy and rec-ommended we try it. We submitted mater-ial to Editors Rose and Cal Samra andwere immediately invited to become reg-ular contributors. Since then literally hun-dreds of jokes, articles, and stories havebeen published in addition to entertain-ing various groups around the country asrepresentatives of the publication.

The Joyful Noiseletter is celebrating 30years of successful publication, includingthousands of books sold on the general sub-ject of church related humor. We thoughtyou might enjoy this news release of thepublication's history which celebrates 30years of work and the well known writersand cartoonist who make it all happen:

The Joyful Noiseletter was launched 30years ago after the editors visited a semi-nary library and could not find the wordhumor in the book index.

JN will be celebrating in 2015 its 30th

anniversary of publication as a newsletterwhich has filled the sanctuaries and fel-lowship halls of thousands of churches ofall faith traditions with healing laughter.

The Joyful Noiseletter amazingly hassurvived as both a print and electronicnewsletter—without advertising—duringa prolonged recession and the demise ofmany secular and religious publications.

JN began publishing with the aim ofbringing good, clean humor to pastors,church newsletters, bulletins, and websites—jokes that pastors can tell in their ser-mons, and holy humor and cartoons thatlocal church publications can reprint.

JN succeeded on a bare-bones budgetbecause of a massive, mainly volunteereffort involving hundreds of talents frommany faith traditions all over the world—humorists, comedians, cartoonists, clowns,pastors, chaplains, medical doctors, nurses,and health professionals.

Hundreds of humorists, comedians, andclowns, including Steve Allen, Joe Gara-giola, Malcolm Muggeridge, George andPeggy Goldtrap, and Rev. Susan Sparkshave contributed freely to JN.

Eighteen of America’s foremost cartoon-ists, including Bil and Jeff Keane of TheFamily Circus, Johnny Hart of B.C., DaveCoverly of Speed Bump, Ed Sullivan, andHarley L. Schwadron, contributed cartoonsto JN that were widely reprinted in churchpublications.

JN editors soon discovered that holyhumor, like love, crosses denominationallines, and is an important healing, bridge-building, and peace-making tool. The edi-tors also discovered that holy humor isthe one thing that all of the great religionsagree on and value unanimously. JN has

attracted subscribers from a variety offaiths that ordinarily rarely communicate.

The holy fools of JN sometimes havegone where angels fear to tread.

Here are some other achievements ofJN’s unique ministry:

• JN’s set of four Holy Humor and HolyHilarity books by Cal and Rose Samra(published by Guideposts and WaterbrookPress) and the book The Joyful Christ: TheHealing Power of Humor (Harper San Fran-cisco) sold nearly a million copies.

• The holy humor and joyful Scripturalmessages in JN’s Signs And Wonders sec-tion are often posted on church signs.

• Numerous clowns use JN’s materialsto cheer up shut-ins and patients in hospi-tals, nursing, and retirement homes.

• Hospital and military chaplains use JNmaterials to lift the spirits of those theyare counseling.

• The Joyful Noiseletter’s Facebook,monitored by Methodist Pastor DaleSchoening, has attracted a loyal and grow-ing following of wits and lively exchanges.

• The Joyful Noiseletter resurrectedBright Sunday, a very old service on theSunday after Easter when the early GreekChristians celebrated God’s last laugh on thedevil by raising Jesus from the dead. Theearly Christians spent the day picnicking,singing, dancing, joke-telling, and playingpractical jokes.

• Through the years, it became increas-ingly clear to JN editors that joy also hasa physical component. While we’ve knownmany courageous believers who suffer fromvarious ailments or handicaps and yetmaintain an attitude of good cheer, it wasobvious to us that it’s much easier to bejoyful when one is in good health. Some ofthe enlightened medical doctors on JN’sboard of consulting editors wrote mar-velous books on the importance of physicalfitness, good nutrition, and prevention, andalso contributed articles on living ahealthy lifestyle to JN.

Thanks for listening to our story. Bythe grace of God, we survived for 30 years.We welcome anyone who wishes to shareholy humor and subscribe to The JoyfulNoiseletter for just $29 annually. You maysubscribe on JN’s website at www.joyfulnoiseletter.com or call 1.800.877.2757.

ave you heard about GreenDot MoneyPak scams thatare going around? Unfor-tunately, they’re prolifer-

ating like crazy. Here’s what you needto know:

The MoneyPak essentially is a re-loadable debit card. It’s very conve-nient for consumers. Guess what.

Scammers like them too, because ofthe convenience and the fact that they’revirtually impossible to trace. Scammerscall their targets on the phone anddemand payment for some supposeddebt, like unpaid taxes or a utility bill.Then they threaten you: Pay up or else!

They may threaten their victims withanything from arrest to frozen accountsto hefty fines to having their electricityturned off to deportation. Then theyinstruct the victim to get a Green Dotcard, load money onto it, and then givethem the card number. Other times,scammers will pretend to be part of alegitimate business venture, like an un-dercover or mystery shopper operation.In those cases, victims are told to loadmoney onto a prepaid card, spend a smallfraction of it, and then give their sup-posed employer the card number.

Either way, as soon as someone hasyour card number, they have instantaccess to the money. That’s because themoney isn’t linked to a bank account.It’s on the card. Once the victim givesout the card number, the money on thecard is quickly drained. There’s somerelief for people who immediately real-ize that they’ve been scammed— beforethe money on the card is spent. In thosecases, there’s a process to follow forrequesting a refund. The bad news is thatthe money usually is drained from thecard so quickly that you’ll never knowit until it’s too late.

Of course seniors are often the targetof these schemes. Make sure you knowthe people you are doing business with.The best advice is to avoid becoming avictim in the first place by not givingout your card number to anyone youdon’t personally know.

IRA's otherwise known as Individ-ual Retirement Accounts are a greatway to save money on a tax deferred

basis, but for estate planning purposes,IRA's can create a big tax bill for the ben-eficiaries. Because the money that goesinto the IRA is typically on a before taxbasis, all of the proceeds of the IRA are tax-able as “ordinary income,” which could betaxed as high at 39.6 percent! Normally aspouse has the ability to simply rollover the account to their own if they arethe beneficiary, but children don't havethat option. So it's important to discuss a dis-tribution plan with your kids so they don'tmake any major mistakes and get hit withan unnecessary tax bill on their inheri-tance. A decedent IRA (more commonlycalled an inherited IRA or a beneficiaryIRA) is a great way for the beneficiary to beable to take over the IRA without having toliquidate it and pay taxes immediately.Under a decedent IRA, the IRA is simplyre-registered as a decedent account. It isimportant to remember that different IRAcustodians may have varying interpretationsof the IRS's rules regarding account regis-trations. Once the account has been regis-tered properly, the beneficiary can continueto defer the vast majority of the IRA allow-ing it to grow tax deferred, but they musttake out their required minimum distribu-

tions each year, based on their life ex-pectancy. If they need extra cash, theycan also take out more than their requireddistributions without incurring an earlywithdrawal penalty. So for most beneficiaries,a decedent IRA might be the way to go.

Sunday’s Parade magazine coverstory featured a football tailgate-food theme which spot-lights Am-

erica’s favorite “brown food” group. Simpleto prepare, snack foods are high in caloriesbut low in nutrients. The emphasis is moreon the sweet/sour velvety tongue appealof sour cream than whether the chili ravi-oli was deep fried in GMO corn oil. Amer-ica is beginning to fight back in the Waist-line Super Bowl and the quarterbacks areDoctor Moms.

With the kids going back to school or tocollege, working moms are looking for away to boost the day’s most importantmeal: breakfast. How can you get the pro-tein value associated with eggs withoutcooking? Get out the blender and simplydrink a morning meal or snack. NaturalFactors has developed a new whey pro-tein powder derived from the milk ofgrass fed cows. For growing children andadults, whey protein is the gold standardfor having the highest biological value: themeasurement of how well a protein retainsnitrogen and how useable it is to the body.Simply put, high nitrogen absorptionenhances that gain. Compared to otherproteins, whey contains the highest con-centration of branched chain amino acids(BCAA’s) which serve as a critical fuelsource for skeletal muscles. During periodsof metabolic stress (school, work, and exer-cise), BCAA’s help maintain or increasemuscle mass and help prevent fat storage.It also stabilizes blood sugar, which iswhy it is so effective with hyperactivechildren or adults to stay on task or focus.Read Dr. Michael Lyon’s book, Is YourBrain Starving? It is a great read for parentsand is available at both our stores.

Called Whey Factors, this new proteinpowder supplies the muscle enhancingBCAA’s: L-leucine, Lisoleusine and L-valine along with several building blockamino acids. Dr. Oz is promoting severalof these amino acids. Valine, for example,is one of those that support optimal bodyshaping and muscle definition. Natural Fac-tors proprietary formulation retains the nat-ural goodness of why using only milk fromCanadian cows. Canada, unlike the US,does not allow the genetically modifiedhormones rBGH and BSE to be injectedinto their cattle. This also supports LoveWhole Foods whole milk standard: NoGMO/ hormones. These contaminants aredangerous and pose a health risk, espe-cially for children.

So why whey? The most researchedaspect of whey protein is its benefit to ourimmune system. High in the amino acidcysteine, whey factors raise the critical anti-oxidant called glutathione which is essentialto proper immune system health. Glutathionestimulates anti-body productions as wellas triggering enzyme actions which vanquishforeign invaders. Mom, that helps your childfight infections they may be exposed to atschool. For the rest of us, this means fight-

ing the flu of even cancer.Go online and download the April 1, 2013,issue of Time Magazine’s cancer cover story.It is dedicated to the whole new interdis-ciplinary approach to fighting a scourge thatnow touches 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 womenin their lifetime. Read the section on thegene link and you will understand why youwant to be cognizant of GMO tainted food.We will be promoting GMO awareness theentire month of October at both stores. Thescience is definitive. A 2010 human clinicalstudy published in Jama showed the resultsof a long term European trial called: TheDiet, Obesity And Genes Project (Google“Diogenes Project”) which confirms whatearlier articles on diabetes have stated. Eat-ing higher quality proteins without saturatedfat along with low-glycemic index foodresulted in the following: balanced bloodsugar (no spikes), increased satiety (no needfor dessert or snacks), and an overall in-creased daily caloric intake. Get more nutri-ents, with fewer calories results in weightloss that stays lost.

Folks, if you are struggling with “waistmanagement” or are dreading the comingfootball season, or you are a boomer flirtingwith metformin then read on. If you are asenior citizen trying to get muscle back afterjoining the “zipper club,” then there is a sim-ple lifestyle change you can employ and iteven tastes great! Just mix a scoop of WheyFactors in 8 ounces of water with almond,rice, or low fat organic milk. You pick fromthree flavors. Then add the life changingbenefits of essential fatty acids. Barleansorganic flax oil with organic coconut oil isthe best. Throw in some ice cubes and turnon the blender. You now have a brain bust-ing/heart boosting power shake! Wow, ameal replacement that can build muscle,balance blood sugar, promote satiety, boostour immune systems and fight Alz-heimer’s… all that for $1.80 /serving…just under $2 if you add the omega oils.

Have you ever wondered aboutwhy your cat acts the way hedoes? There are plenty of ex-perts in dog behavior and train-

ers are easily accessible for most dog owners.Less is known about our feline friends.

Cats will often rub up against a person’sleg or other body parts. While this may seemlike a friendly gesture, the reason behind itis actually a little different. Cats rub them-selves against people to leave their scent.This is actually a method of signaling toother cats that they “own” you!

Many cat owners have received an un-wanted “present” from their cat after a tripoutdoors. While you may not be excitedabout a mouse or bird on your doorstep,

there is a reason behind this behavior. Evenwell fed, primarily indoor cats have a nat-ural instinct to hunt for food. In the wild, amother cat will often bring back prey to heryoung to teach them how to eat. Whenyour cat brings an animal back, it is becausethey see you as a family member, and theyare sharing with you.

While most cats quickly learn to use alitter box, some cats will spray around thehouse. This is a method of communicationbetween cats. Many cats will spray as away to mark their territory or to claim anitem as their own. This can be especiallyprevalent when there is a conflict betweentwo cats, or a new cat is introduced. Spay-ing or neutering your cat greatly decreases

this behavior. If your cat does spray in thehouse, use an enzymatic cleaner that is for-mulated to neutralize pet odors.

An unfortunate behavior that some catowners have experienced is having furnitureor other items scratched up by their cat. Catsscratch to mark territory and to remove thedead outer layer of their claws. To discour-age this behavior, you can cover yourcat’s favorite spots with textures he does notlike, such as foil or double-sided tape. Then,provide alternative scratching options thatallow your cat to continue with his ritual ina nonharmful way. There are all kinds ofscratching options available for your cat,such as posts, cardboard, platforms, andmore so they don’t scratch your furniture.

Now at Halifax Hu-mane Society, you can pur-chase Soft Paws nail capsfor your feline friend. SoftPaws come in several dif-ferent sizes and colors to accommodate allcats. They are a painless, non-surgical solu-tion to eliminate destructive scratching. Thecaps slide easily over a cat’s claws and lastseveral weeks per application. Most catsadjust to their Soft Paws within hours or evenminutes. Stop by Halifax Humane Societytoday to grab a set of Soft Paws for your cat!

Q: I have the comic Death Of Super-man and wonder how much it mightbe worth.

—Robert, Kitty Hawk, NCA: Death Of Superman, or Super-

man No. 75, was issued in 1993 byDC Comics in several formats. If theone you have is still sealed in a blackplastic bag, it is worth about $16.Other editions include platinum ($50),regular first press run ($8) and othereditions ($4-$6). With comics, condi-tion is paramount. Prices might vary alittle depending on dealer and region.

***Q: I have a New York Yankees re-

served seat ticket stub for Lou Geh-rig's farewell speech on July 4, 1939.Is there any value?

—Robert, Palm Coast, FLA: That historic day, 60,000 tickets

were sold. One of those tickets signedby Gehrig will be auctioned in Cleve-land and is expected to fetch $100,000.To determine the value of your ticket,you might want to contact Heritage Auc-tion, one of the largest auction houses

specializing in sports memorabilia. Thecontact information is Heritage Auc-tions, 3500 Maple Ave., 17th Floor, Dal-las, TX 75219, and 214-528-3500.

***Q: I have several old calendar plates

from the 1970s. One promoted ourcountry's 200th year. Do you think theyworth keeping?

—MaryAnne, Broken Arrow, OKA: Only you can determine if your

plates are worth keeping. Most calen-dar plates from the 1960s and 70s thatI have seen in shops and at antiquemalls have been priced in the $10 to$25 range. There are always excep-tions. World War II-era patrioticplates seem to be especially col-lectible and are priced accordingly. AWin The War design from about 1943recently sold for $75.

It seems like Katie's life shouldbe pretty great: She's a celebratedchef at the most popular eateryin town, and she's slowly mov-

ing forward on her dream of openingher own restaurant. But she's currentlyhaving a really bad day: Her ex showsup out of nowhere, her fling just brokeup with her, and worst of all, a co-worker is badly burned in an accidentthat was her fault.So, stressed and angst-ridden, when shewakes up in the middle of the night tofind a set of cryptic instructions in herdresser—“write your mistake, ingestone mushroom, go to sleep”—shedoes. In the morning none of the terri-ble things seem to have ever hap-pened at all.

At first Katie is thrilled, if a littleweirded out. Then she stumbles acrossmore mushrooms, and new problems touse them on. Human nature being whatit is, soon every complication leads to amushroom and a brand new do-over.

Of course, trying to fix one thingoften just makes two other things worse.As Katie rewrites her entire history

one blunder at a time, the changes andconsequences grow greater and reachfarther. Her revisions are affecting morelives than just her own—and may evenbe changing all of reality itself.

Seconds is an enchanting graphicnovel, a dreamy yet lively fairy taleabout the irresistible appeal of secondchances. O'Malley, author of the best-selling Scott Pilgrim comic series, im-bues his signature bold, big-eyed stylewith a delicate magical realism, a blendthat works with surprising power.

The story is reminiscent of ancientfolktales but spiced with a uniquelymodern sense of sass, as well as thewarning that things that seem to mag-ically appear just when you want themmay not have anything to do withwhat you really need.

Before Congress raced offto vacation in August, sen-ators voted 91-3 to passthe long-awaited, $17 bil-

lion veterans emergency health-care bill.Here are a few tidbits from the bill:• Veterans will receive a Choice Card

for care, but don't get excited yet. Toqualify for this card, a veteran musthave served within the past five years,or already be signed up with VeteransAffairs health care. It will be more of anID/insurance card that gives serviceinformation for eligibility. You likelywon't be able to take the card to a pri-vate doctor unless the care has beenapproved by the VA.

• If a veteran is given a long waittime for appointments (over 30 days)or lives more than 40 miles from care,he or she will be eligible to get privatesector care. That 40 miles is straightline, aka geodesic distance.

• Veterans who have been sexuallyassaulted will receive care.

• Twenty-seven new clinics willopen.

• The VA will hire $5 billion worthof new health-care providers.

• Bonuses will be capped at $360 mil-lion per year.

• The VA secretary will be allowed tofire senior VA executives more quickly.

When they look for incompetents tofire, I hope they aim their lasers at theVA medical center in Kentucky. A vet-eran collapsed at home and was trans-ported there, where he was hooked upto life support. By the time his wife andfamily arrived at the hospital, staff toldher that her husband was dead. Theygave her a specific time of death. Dis-traught, she asked to see him one moretime to say goodbye. What she foundwas a living, breathing husband withgood heart rate and blood pressure whowas responding to commands.

Q: The basement of the early-1900shome we recently purchased has sturdystone walls and a concrete floor but thereare a lot more creepy-crawlies than I'dlike. Short of fumigating the entire house,how can I get rid of these pests?

—Claudia H., Worcester, MAA: The first thing you'll want to do is

find where many of these pests are enter-ing the basement. Even if the walls andfloor are structurally sound and appear dry,very small cracks or holes may have devel-oped over the years. Ants are the easiest totrack: Find one of their trails, or create atrail by placing a small amount of crumbsin a pile on an otherwise clean floor.

Next, test how bad the house centipedeor beetle population may be, by settingdown sticky traps in the areas you lastsaw these pests. Even if you just catchone, it will confirm their presence.

A pest-control professional can do themost thorough job of eliminating thesecreatures, or you can find bug sprays spe-cific to these pests at home-improvementstores. If you don't want them coming back,you'll need to close up entry points andreduce the amount of moisture.

The basement may seem dry, but theappearance of house centipedes often sig-nals a moisture problem. Have a contrac-

tor specializing in basements evaluate thefloor and walls to find out if water is seep-ing in. Small cracks and gaps need to besealed using correct mortar or cement patch-ing material to allow for expansion andcontraction.

Meantime, look around the outside foun-dation of the house for potential water andbug magnets, like piles of leaves or oldmulch, drain spouts that are pouring waterdirectly down into the foundation ratherthan being extended out several feetaway, or firewood stacked against the wall.These issues can be dealt with quickly andeasily and can reduce both bug and waterissues.

Home Tip: Store boxes and place dirtylaundry containers on platforms or shelvesthat keep them off the ground in areasthat centipedes and spiders frequent.

This Is A Hammer

Creepy-Crawlies

Line your pots and pans with plainpaper coffee filters to reduce scratches.Replace as needed.

To keep clothing on the hanger inyour closet, try the thin, velvet-linedones. If you can't find them, add stripsof rubber shelf liner to the tops of yourhangers, secured with a little duct tapeor safety pins.

If you have solar lights that stick inthe ground, you're going to love this:Grab one right out of the ground andflip a flowerpot over, stick it into thehole in the bottom of the pot, and you'vegot a nice little table lamp. Great if thepower goes out!

Here's an easy and healthy way toadd moisture and fiber to your burgersor meatballs: oatmeal. Add instead ofpackage bread crumbs, which can in-clude way too much unnecessarysugar or oils. The oats keep the meatnice and moist.

Fruit salad can be frozen in smallportions in the wells of a muffin tin.Press down and include juices. Whenfrozen, it can be removed and the result-ing frozen cups put in a freezer safe bagfor use in smoothies later.

Tank tops or scarves can be storedon a hanger to which you've attachedplastic shower rings. Simply thread thescarf or the tank straps through the ring.They make a nice presentation, andyou can fit many on the same hanger.

Here’s An Idea

Frozen Fruit Salad

September 26, 2014—Seniors Today—Page B-5

With great ceremony myhusband reached into hiscoat and pulled out myperfect birthday gift: a

tiny gray Persian kitten. We had beenmarried a few short months, but already Iwas experiencing the nesting urge.Children were still a few years off, and Ineeded something to cuddle and spoil.

Gilligan (named after my husband'sfavorite TV show) was a delightful addi-tion to our life. We were careful to raisehim with just the right mix of affectionand discipline, insisting on the best foodavailable and a regular play schedule.

My great pride in Gilligan was that hehad learned to walk on a leash. Yes, it wascertainly quite an accomplishment and hadtaken a great deal of diligence and persis-tence—but it had paid off.

My favorite outing was taking him forwalks in the mall. For some reason, myhusband never seemed to be available forthis venture.

One particular day I decided to dresshim up for our usual stroll through themall. The latest purchase was brought out,and a comical struggle ensued as we pro-ceeded to put on his new green, knit turtle-neck sweater.

This day seemed like any other day.Children smiled, adults commented to each

other, and groups of people stopped tostare, but it suddenly dawned on me thatshoppers seemed to be getting more thanthe usual enjoyment out of our performance.Smiles were more like snickers, and chuck-les had elements of hysterics. There hadbeen no drag on the leash, but I turned myhead to do a quick check anyway.

To my horror, there at the end of theleash was the cat, lying flat on his back withall fours reaching to the sky. He lookedrelaxed and quite comfortable with thenew traveling arrangements. I realized thisentire time I had been slowly draggingmy 20 pound cat around on the mall's slip-pery floor, on his back, in a green sweater!Drat that cat.

With lightning speed, I picked up Gilli-gan and tucked him under my arm, mak-ing a beeline for the exit. That was alsothe end of the leash walking. I figured nexttime we might find my picture in theevening paper under the heading BelieveIt or Not.

I'm sure there is some kind of moral tothis story, but I can't think of a single one.All I know is that at many dinner tablesthat night, the conversation probably startedwith, “You won't believe the woman I sawtoday at the mall.”

Dear Paw’s Corner: My border col-lie mix, Rex, was difficult to housetrainwhen he was a puppy, but thingssmoothed out for several years. Nowsuddenly he's pooping all over the houseagain. I scold him, he looks ashamedand whines, but then it happens again.How do a retrain an old, stubborn dog?

—Clark in Kansas CityDear Clark: Take Rex straight to

the vet. When an adult dog that had noissues with housetraining for severalyears suddenly develops issues, it's nota problem of stubbornness. Somethingelse is going on.

Incontinence is a somewhat commonproblem in senior dogs, as they developvarious physical problems with blad-der, kidneys, or muscles. In adult dogsthat haven't reached their expectedsenior age, eliminating in the house cansignal an infection or other disease. Inboth cases, pets need to be evaluated bya veterinarian.

Working out an appropriate treatmentmay take additional testing and, depend-ing on Rex's diagnosis, a bit of time towork out the right medications to give,

if any. You should also need to accom-modate his problem, hopefully on a tem-porary basis, by setting up disposable peepads appropriate to his size in each roomhe frequents.

A side anecdote: When my mother'saging German shepherd became incon-tinent, she rolled out spare carpet stripswherever he walked or rested. These shecould clean or dispose of when he hadan accident.

Train Rex to use the pads similar tohis original housetraining outdoors.

It's important to keep up his routine asmuch as possible: Take him for hiswalks at the same time as usual and feedhim at the same time (unless otherwisedirected by the vet).

Here are two items ofimportance to seniors.Time is limited so makesure you act on them.

Flu ShotsLate September or early October is

not too soon to get your flu shot. Nowwould be a good time to plan for it.The Centers for Disease Control andPrevention says the flu season can startas early as the beginning of October.

Did you know: There's a special high-dose flu vaccine for seniors age 65 andolder? The reason is that the regulardose doesn't always protect us becauseour immune system often is weakened.This vaccine is four times as strong,setting up a better immune response.

Did you know: That Medicare willpay for the vaccine? (As will most insur-ance under the Affordable Care Act.)

Did you know: You don't have to goto your doctor to get the flu shot. Thereare numerous other locations. To finda flu shot in your area, begin scoutingthe Internet at sites like cvs.com orflushot.healthmap.org or you can callyour local pharmacy.

Medicare Open EnrollmentOpen enrollment for Medicare begins

October 15 to change from the Origi-nal to an Advantage Plan, or vice versa.Don't confuse this with the Health Insur-ance Marketplace, which opens enroll-ment a month later. As a Medicarebeneficiary, it's illegal for a Market-place company to sell you a Marketplaceplan, so don't be taken in.

There is a caveat: If you have a Mar-ketplace plan and think you'll sign upfor Medicare later, beware that youmight be subject to a lifelong penalty ifyou enroll late.

Because of the variety of situations(Marketplace versus Medicare, Part Aversus Parts A and B), your best bet isto get advice from Medicare beforethe signup period begins if you're nowmoving from Marketplace to Medicare.Call them at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227).

A reporter once asked GeneralCharles de Gaulle, leader of the FreeFrench Forces during World War II andpresident of the French Fifth Republic,if he was happy. De Gaulle replied,“What do you take me for, an idiot?”

It's been claimed that prodigy Wil-liam James Sidis had the highest IQever recorded (though any record ofthe test has been lost). At the age of 18months, he was reading The New YorkTimes; by the time he was 8, he hadtaught himself Latin, Greek, French,Russian, German, Hebrew, Turkish, andArmenian, and had invented his ownlanguage he called Vendergood. At theage of 11 he became the youngest per-

son to enroll in Harvard University, andwhen he was 12 he lectured the Har-vard Mathematical Club on four-dimen-sional bodies. He graduated cum laudeat 16.

In 1889, a magazine called The Lit-erary Digest made the following pre-diction: “The ordinary 'horseless car-riage' is at present a luxury for thewealthy, and although its price willprobably fall in the future, it will never,of course, come into as common useas the bicycle.”

Before Charlton Heston became afamous actor, he earned cash by serv-ing as an artists' model—and posed inthe nude.
