TIDBITS® TAKES A LEAP OFF THE WALL!

by Patricia L. Cook

There have been important walls through-out history. Some for protection, some to keep people in or out, many as historical monuments and some just to keep toma-toes warm!

The walls of Jericho had been built and •rebuilt many times when Joshua and the Israelites arrived. According to Joshua 6 in the Bible, the Israelites marched around the city seven times, the priests blew their trumpets, the people shouted and the walls fell. Three major archaeo-logical expeditions have uncovered evi-dence supporting the event.Quebec City •is the capi-tal of the province of Q u e b e c , Canada and has the only historic city walls in the Americas north of Mexico. Construction of these walls began in 1694 and, follow-ing capture by the British via the “Battle of the Plains of Abraham” in 1759, they werefortified.Ifyouvisitandwanttostayin the historic area, ask for a hotel “within the walls.”Wall Street in New York City really did •begin as a wall! In the 1600s, Dutch settlers built a defensive wall to protect themselves from a possible British attack. The wall was later removed and a street was installed and named Wall, which is famousallovertheworldforitsfinancialmarkets. Vancouver, BC has a seawall around the •city’sfirstparkwhich isoneof itsmajortourist attractions. Stanley Park is 1,000 acres (400 hectares) of natural bliss. The seawall was started in 1917 for erosion control and it was not until 1980 that it be-came a fully completed paved loop. The seawall around the park is 5.4 miles (9 km) and part of the seaside path system.

chel Papillon, a French engraver, is con-sidered to be the inventor of wallpaper in 1675. He made block designs of continu-ously matching patterns.Plants have cell walls. Animals do not. •Plant protectors called “Wall O’ Water” •are great for keeping tomato plants warm. Tubes of water surrounding the plants pro-vide protection from frost and cold adding about eight weeks to the growing season. Plant earlier and harvest later!Did you know there are walls under wa-•ter? These walls are either made up of coral or they are a natural cliff face where the ocean’s bottom drops sharply. Some walls are only a few feet high such as “The Gap”, a wall that starts at 50 feet below the surface of the water and drops to 80 feet. Others are a mile or more in depth such as the Marianas Trench which drops to 35,810 feet deep!

OFF THE WALL! (continued)

Galveston, Texas was a prominent city in •the late 1880s with a busy port for cotton and other exports as well as immigration. It was the “Wall Street of the South.” Its industrial and residential growth changed when a hurricane decimated the area in 1900. From 1902-1904 a massive seawall was constructed. At that time it was 3.3 miles (5.3 km) long. Today it is 10 miles (16 km) long, approximately 17 feet (5.2 m) high and 16 feet (4.9 m) thick at its base. Waves topped the seawall causing extensive damage when Hurricane Ike hit the area on September 12, 2008, forcing thefirstmajorrepairstotheseawallinits105 year history. Galveston is now open for business!“Wall Street” vs. “Main Street” are terms •used to distinguish big business or wealthy interests from small business or middle class. T h e •G r e a t Wall of China is approxi-m a t e l y 5 , 0 0 0 m i l e s (8046 kilometers) long. It consists of many walls that were connected in an attempt to protect China from Mongolian invad-ers. The longest manmade structure in the world was built over a period of 2,000 years. It was started in the Qin Dynasty (221-206 B.C.) but most major construc-tion was during the Ming Dynasty (1388-1644 A.D.). Hiking the wall allows you to feel ancient history under your feet!Wall Drug is not a historic or defensive •wall… but is historical in its own rite! More than 2.2 million visitors a year stop at the gigantic shopping experience on Interstate 90 in Wall, South Dakota. It is 77,000 square feet (app. 7153 square meters) and claims its impetus for growth was signs offering free ice water.Have you heard of the “Green Monster?” •It is the nickname for the 37 foot 2 inch tall(11.3meters)leftfieldwallatBoston’sFenway Park. Baseball fans are surely aware of this famous landmark. In early days it was called “The Wall.” Following a 1995 mudslide onto the town •of La Conchita, California, Ventura Coun-ty spent $450,000 to construct a retain-ing wall for protection against future mud-slides. A second mudslide in 2005 proved the wall to be insufficient as cascading

mud and rock overcame it. La Conchita is in a beautiful area near Santa Barbara, but may be a little too precarious for most of us!At the first Battle of Bull Run, in the•U.S. Civil War, on July 21, 1861, Gen-eral Thomas J. Jackson was nicknamed “Stonewall.” General Bernard E. Bee de-clared, “There is Jackson standing like a stone wall.”The Western Wall in Jerusalem is also •called the “Wailing” Wall. It is considered the holiest shrine of the Jewish world. It is part of the retaining wall supporting the second temple built by King Herod in 20 B.C.E. There were times in early history as well as from 1948-1967 that Jews were not permitted to visit the wall. In 1967, the Six-Day War gave new access to the wall. Written prayers are placed in cracks in the wall.For 28 years, from 1961 to 1989, the Ber-•lin Wall was a physical barrier between East and West Berlin. It separated the So-viet-controlled communist East from the democratic West. The wall divided fami-lies and caused people to lose jobs when they couldn’t cross either way. Today, the Haus Am Checkpoint Charlie Museum in Berlin is full of information about the split andtheunification.Now,Germanyisonedemocratic country where the citizens elect leaders, have freedom of speech, and freedom to come and go. A few sec-tions of the wall remain as memorials as well as 12 miles (20 km) marked with a red line or cobblestones where the wall once stood.The Vietnam Memorial, in Washington, •DC is often referred to as “The Wall.” It consists of two black granite walls 246 feet 9 inches (75 m) long. One wall points toward the Lincoln Memorial and the other toward the Washington Memorial. The Chinese glued rice paper on walls as •early as 200 B.C.E. However, Jean-Mi-

Saving You Money by Saving Your Tub

Almost everyone knows that there are two places in your home where remodeling dollars give you the most return on investment; the kitchen and the bathroom. Even in today’s economy, a fresh and clean looking bathroom will help raise the value of your home for fewer dollars invested than in other rooms. There are a few key areas you want to concentrate on when remodeling the bathroom and one is the bathtub and shower enclose itself.Whether your tub is old, worn, chipped or just not a fashionable color; On Site Solutions has the right solution for you. Jonathan Edwards, owner or On Site Solutions, states that the bathtub is one of the essential selling pieces in any bathroom. If the bath and surround do not look clean, modern and fresh, the entire bathroom loses points in a buyer’s eyes.Besides being a selling point when you are ready to sell your home, a clean, fresh looking bathroom also makes homeowners feel good about their environment. After the bedroom, the bathroom is generally thefirstroomweseewhenwewakeup.If you wake up and see a dingy, dirty, chipped and avocado green bathtub each day, you may not be starting the day as cheerful as if you woke to see a clean

bathtubwithnocosmeticflawsinacolorthat was pleasing to the eye.If you are a homeowner with a not-so-fresh bathtub and you want to make a change, you may be afraid of the cost to change out your tub. Sure, the cost of the tub at a home improvement store is around $200, but when you factor in the cost to break out your old tub, getting it out of the bathroom and house, disposal costs, structural repairs, a plumber, tile and grout specialist, carpenter and someone to repair the floor covering… your costjust sky rocketed to somewhere between $2,500 to $3,000. But have no fear! There is no need to replace your tired, old, dingy tub. On Site Solutions with save you thousands of dollars by refinishing yourbathtub!Theaveragebathtubcanberefinishedfora very small fraction of a new tub and most jobs can be completed the same day – unlike replacing your tub which could take daysorevenaweek!Byrefinishing,youcould be luxuriating in your like- new tub within 24 hours! By hiring a professional who specializes in refinishing bathtubs,such as On Site Solutions, you can save up to 70% versus the cost of replacement.What is refinishing? It is the process ofapplying a polyurethane coating to your existing fixture in order to enhance orrenewthelookofthatfixture.Thisprocess,

if done properly, w i l l b r e a t h e new life into your b a t h t u b and save you the extreme cost of replacing it. One of the best featuresaboutrefinishingisthepracticalityof the process. The bathtub does not need to be removed – it is an on-site project. On Site Solutions is a professional organization that is aware they are in YOURhomesotheytakeprecautionstominimize mess and disruptions.Bathtub reglazing is a job best left to a professional. You can buy do-it-yourself kits, but it is extremely unlikely that you will get a good job done by yourself. Reglazing can be a tricky process thattakes experience to get right.

It was beloved comedian Bill Cosby who •made the following sage observation: “I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please every-body.”Before the 1800s, lobster was not con-•sidered to be the delicacy it is today. In fact, the crustacean was so ill-regarded as a food source that only the very poor -- such as widows, orphans and servants -- ate them.Famed 19th-century Russian composer•Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky wasn’t just a musicalgenius.WiththeabilitytofluentlyspeakRussian,FrenchandGermanbythe time he was 6 years old, he evidently had a gift for languages, too.At 50 feet in diameter, the world’s largest •clock is the Colgate Clock. If you want to see it in person, you’ll have to travel to Jersey City, N.J., to do so.Besides having successful careers in •film, what do Steven Spielberg, TomCruise, Sela Ward and Lucy Liu have in common? All of them had an engineer forafather.TVstarsMilaKunisandRayRomano did, too, as did singer MariahCarey.When the popular word game Scrabble •wasfirstputon themarket in1938, thegame’s creator, Alfred Mosher Butts, re-ceived only 5 cents for each game that was sold.When he was in college, comedian and •TVhostDavidLettermanwasfiredfromhis job as a disc jockey.Considering the franchise’s longevity, •you might be surprised to learn that the original “Star Trek” series never did bet-ter than 52nd place in the ratings during its relatively brief three-year stint on TV in the late 1960s.

Thought for the Day: “The nice thing about being a celebrity is that when you bore people, they think it’s their fault.”

-- Henry Kissinger

WEEKLY ANSWERS

Two neighbors were talking about work, when one asked, “Say, why did the fore-man fire you?” Replied the second, “Well,you know how a foreman is always standing around and watching others do the work. My foreman got jealous. People started thinking I was the foreman.”The mother of a problem child was advised by a psychiatrist, “You are far too upset and worried about your son. I suggest you take tranquilizers regularly.” On her next visit the psychiatrist asked, “Have the tranquilizers calmed you down?” “Yes,” the boy’s mother answered. “And how is your son now?” the psychiatrist asked. “Who cares?” the mother replied.The aspiring psychiatrists were attending theirfirstclassonemotionalextremes.“Justto establish some parameters,” said the pro-fessor to the student from Arkansas, “What is the opposite of joy?” “Sadness,” said the student. And the opposite of depression?” he asked of the young lady from Oklahoma. “Elation,” said she. “And you sir,” he said to the young man from Texas, “how about the opposite of woe?” The Texan replied, “Sir, I believe that would be giddy-up.”You’ve all heard of the Air Force’s ultra-high-security, super-secret base in Nevada, known simply as “Area 51?” Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna land-ing at their “secret” base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room. The pilot’s story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the investigation. Bythenextday,theywerefinallyconvincedthat the pilot really was lost and wasn’t a spy. They gassed up his airplane, gave him a terrifying “you-did-not-see-a-base” brief-ing, complete with threats of spending the rest of his life in prison, told him Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such a heading, and sent him on his way. The day after that though, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP’s surrounded the plane...only this time there were two people in the plane. The same pilot jumped out and said, “Do anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night!”A teacher was giving a lesson on the cir-culation of the blood. Trying to make the

matter clearer, he said: “Now, students, if I stood on my head the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I should turn red in the face.” “Yes, sir,” the boys said. “Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the or-dinary position the blood doesn’t run into my feet?” A little fellow shouted, “’It’s because yer feet ain’t empty.”A man was driving down a local street one day and approached a stop sign. He barely slowed down and ran right through thestopsignafterglancingfortraffic.Whatthe driver didn’t know was that a policeman was watching the intersection. The police-man pulled out after him and stopped the car two blocks away. Policeman: “License, registration and proof of insurance please.” Driver: “Before I give it to you, tell me what the heck you stopped me for, man.” Police-man: “Watch your tone sir; you ran the stop sign back there!!” Driver: “Man, I slowed down, what the heck is the difference!?!” Thepoliceofficerpulledouthisnightstickand began smashing it over the man’s head and shoulders. Policeman: “Now, do you want me to just slow down or stop!!!?

Rules For “Real” GuysUnder no circumstances may two men •share an umbrella. Any man who brings a camera to a •bachelor party may be legally killed and eaten by his buddies. Unless he murdered someone in your •family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours. If you’ve known a guy for more than •24 hours, his sister is off limits forever, unless you actually marry her. Moaning about the brand of free •beer in a buddy’s fridge is forbidden. However, you may complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable. No man shall ever be required to buy •a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering your buddy’s birthday is strictly optional. On a road trip, the strongest bladder •determines pit stops, not the weakest. When stumbling upon other guys •watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who’s playing. Never hesitate to reach for the last beer •or the last slice of pizza, but not both, that’s just greedy. Thou shall not buy a car or motorcycle •in the colors of brown, pink, lime green, orange or sky blue. Friends don’t let friends wear Speedos. •Ever.
