     Before I forget, here are the answers to the trivia questions I posed to you last week:  In the 1940s, where were car headlight dimmer switches located?  Answer: On the floor board to the left of the clutch. Why was having milk delivered a problem in northern winters?  Answer: Milkmen left deliveries outside of front doors and milk would …

     The Fourth of July is Saturday. You might want to do as I’m planning to do and  top off the car’s gas tank today or tomorrow. I’m not speculating, but I’d put money on the fact that gas prices will jump up significantly before Saturday. It’s called “greed”, and it runs rampant among the oil companies.       Some of …

This year’s Three Rivers Water Festival is now in the books, so I won’t mention this again until next year. Despite the weather, it was fun. Next weekend is Relay for Life, another opportunity for the community to come together and do something good for humanity.

     A belated Happy Mother’s Day to those mothers out there who didn’t read last week’s column. I hope that you all had a wonderful memorable day and were treated the way you should be treated 365 days a year.      This evening will be a special one for Charlene Zavala, this year’s Citizen of the Year, chosen by the …

     I must start out by clearing the air. Several people have asked me if I plan to retire from the column. I reassured them that I have no desire to cease authoring “Out and About”. The enjoyment I receive from putting this column together is beyond measure. The relationship I have with the Commercial News couldn’t be better. I …
