Bud’s Jolly Kone You Matter Every town has a location that the locals know and love and is the go-to place for what you need. For some it is a diner; for others it is a bar; and hopefully for others still, it may be a church, a grocery store, or what have you. Recently, I had a family member visiting from out of town and as I was giving him a tour of Red Bluff, I found myself gushing to him about Bud’s Jolly Kone. As we passed by, I began telling him how Bud’s is THE place to go for all things yummy and, though mostly bad for your waistline, great for your home-town sense of belonging. I must have spent ten minutes telling him how kids come to Bud’s after school to get a treat and how they have the best and most affordable iced tea on the planet. How Bud’s is a family- owned business that has never lost its small town charm. It isn’t the food that makes Bud’s amazing - I mean it’s good and all, but it isn’t Kobe beef and frites. It isn’t the atmosphere, because often times it is too cold or too hot to stand outside to wait. It is the sense of home town that is created as you begin as a young child going for your first frosty, or Kenyon order of gems and later taking your own kids as an adult. It is the memories of scraping change together with your friends to get a root beer or orange freeze after school. It’s who you see driving by on Antelope Boulevard when you stand waiting for your order. No matter where you live after you leave home, you always remember the places that were etched into your life and that mat- ter. They give you the warm feeling of being home, long after you’ve gone away. Seems that we are pretty spoiled in Northern California, as frosty stands aren’t as common as you’d think. My visitor had never seen one before. I mean, he simply can’t go get a Cap n’ Crunch milk shake and taco with ketchup where he lives, poor guy. Savor the things that make Red Faydra Rector Life Coach love somewhere else, tell them too. Get out a pen and paper and write them a "thank you" note for the impact they have had on your life. Gratitude is free. Making a business and its owner aware of the impact they have on you is price- less. You know, I worked at Bud’s for a brief blip in my career and I never appreciat- ed how cool that job was. As lives have gotten busy and stressful, what I wouldn’t give for the simplicity of tak- ing someone’s order and making them the best twisted cone they ever had. The love I could put into making a sub-bun would astonish you. Bluff your home. Tell the vendors that they matter to you. Share your enthusiasm for their efforts with your pocketbook and your compliments. If you love Bud’s, tell Theresa.

Victim of best friend’s second-hand stroke Dear Annie: For more than 20 years, I had a best friend, ‘‘James,’’ who loved me very much. We did everything together and chatted online fre- quently. One day, everything stopped. I didn’t see him online as usual. After three days, I grew worried and contacted some mutu- al friends. A week later, he sent me an explosive, angry e-mail, blaming me for ‘‘destroying his life.’’ He listed some specific accusations that made lit- tle sense. I became so upset that I canceled some of our scheduled engage- ments.

Prominent Stockman Claims Popular Teacher For Bride A pretty wedding was solemnized at high noon today at the home of Mrs. Hattie Healey west of this city when her daughter, Maggie Florence, became the bride of Joseph R. Baker. Mr. Baker is one of the county’s prominent stockmen and ranchers, residing in the Hooker section. The bride just recently closed the present school term in the Reeds Creek section. — Daily News, April 28, 1920 result of a previous stroke that had gone unrecog- nized. If anyone had known, he might have been medically helped and his personality saved. Meanwhile, his anger at me has never abated. I made every attempt to resolve our differences, but a few days ago, he sent another weird e-mail saying he never wanted to be my friend again. I lost my best friend to a stroke and found a bitter and unforgiving stranger attacking me. It hurt so much to block his e-mails that I am getting counsel- ing. Please make sure your readers realize that if someone’s personality changes suddenly, there could be a serious reason. I never had a chance to say goodbye to my friend. I hope no one else loses what I did. — Vic- tim of a Stroke Dear Victim: Thank you for bringing this to our attention. According to the American Stroke Association (strokeassocia- tion.org), these are the symptoms of a stroke: Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar — Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body. — Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or under- standing. — Sudden trouble see- ing in one or both eyes. — Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination — Sudden severe headache with no known cause. To help identify a stroke in others, there is also the Cincinnati Pre- hospital Stroke Scale, bet- ter known as FAST: — FACE: Ask the per- son to smile. Does one side of the face droop? — ARMS: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift down- ward? — SPEECH: Ask the person to repeat a simple sentence. Are the words slurred? Can he or she repeat the sentence cor- rectly? — TIME: If the person shows any of these symp- toms, time is important. Call 911 or get to the hospital fast. Dear Annie: My husband’s older brother was married last year, and we have since discovered that his wife is a com- pulsive liar. My brother-in-law is oblivious, but it hurts us to see him being treated this way by a woman he loves. Should we tell him his wife is constantly lying to him, or should we just butt out and mind our own busi- ness? — Nebraska Dear Nebraska: If the lies are specific and dam- aging to his relationship with the family (e.g., she says your husband stole her purse), you may cor- rect the misimpression. If she is lying about how much money she spent on an outfit, that’s not your business. Pick your battles carefully, or you will lose all of them. Dear Annie: Perhaps ‘‘Life’s a Beach’’ might consider my surefire way to get rid of unwanted guests. After dinner, I put all the dishes on the floor so the dog can lick them clean. I then pick them up and put them directly into the cupboards. You will never see those guests again. — Lick ’Em Clean Dear Lick: We sure hope you pull all those dishes out of the cup- boards and wash them as soon as the guests leave.
