Penny’s Tip
Should I workout if I’m sick?
"Only together can we make tomorrow’s world better today"
Submitted by: Jim
100% Airdrie Owned and Operated
I think I get asked that question every fall when the kids go
back to school. It really depends how sick you are.
If you have the flu, NO!! You will be weak and we don’t want
your germs in the gym, so stay home and rest. That’s what
your body needs.

Technology Isn’t for Everyone!
My 4 year old has one more year of pre-school before he goes
to Kindergarten so I am always trying to teach him the little
things he needs to know at this age. Recently, I said “Ryan,
it’s very important that you know your phone number in case
you get lost. Do you know what your phone number is?”
He looked at me with incredulous indignation and said, “Phone
number? I don’t have a phone number. (With great emphasis
only a 4 year old boy can muster), I don’t even have a phone!”
Mom thinks it’s good we still have another year to learn a few
things!

Metronome
I had purchased a talking metronome while I was attending a
conference in Toronto for music teachers. Before my son and
I boarded our flight home, I hefted my carry-on bag onto the
security-check conveyor belt. The guard’s eyes widened as
he watched the monitor. He asked what I had in the bag, then
slowly pulled out the six-by-three-inch black box covered with
dials and switches.
Other travelers, sensing trouble, vacated the area.
“A metronome,” I replied weakly, as my son cringed in
embarrassment. “It’s a talking metronome,” I insisted. “Look,
I’ll show you.” I took the box and flipped a switch, realizing
that I had no idea how it worked, “One... two... three... four,” it
said. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
As we gathered our belongings, my son whispered, “Aren’t
you glad it didn’t go ‘four... three... two... one...?’”

Boy Scouting
A troop of Boy Scouts was being used as “guinea pigs” in a
test of emergency systems. A mock earthquake was staged,
and the Scouts impersonated wounded persons who were to be
picked up and cared for by the emergency units. One Scout
was supposed to lie on the ground and await his rescuers, but
the first-aid people got behind schedule, and the Scout lay
“wounded” for several hours.
When the first-aid squad arrived where the casualty was
supposed to be, they found nothing but a brief note: “Have
bled to death and gone home...”

Declining Church Attendance
A group of women were talking together. One woman said,
“Our congregation is sometimes down to 30 or 40 on a
Sunday.”
Another said, “That’s nothing. Sometimes our congregation is
down to six or seven.”
A maiden lady in her seventies added her bit, “Why, it’s so
bad in our church on Sundays that when the minister says
‘dearly beloved,’ it makes me blush.”

Home Improvement Tips:
Q: My kitchen sink has a drain pipe under it that drops down and up
again in a U shape. The bottom of the U is always getting stuff stuck in it
211 East Lake Cres. Airdrie
403.948.5535 | homehardware.ca and I find myself taking it apart to unclog it every two or three months.
My question is this: Is that U necessary and if it is not, can it be
replaced with a more direct pipe that doesn’t trap everything and plug up
the drain? Or is this a neccesary part of the drainage process?
I notice my bathroom sink is set up the same way. If so, then do you have
any suggestions on how to avoid the clogging of the sink all of the time?
~ Jordon
A: The U-shaped pipe you are referring to is called a “P-Trap” and it is

An escape to peace and tranquilty
a very important part of the DWV (Drain Waste Vent) system in your house.
The P-Trap creates a water seal and does not allow sewer gas to get by. The
only thing you should put down the drain in your sinks is water. If you are
allowing food scraps to make it down the drain, it will plug. Never put any
type of grease down the sink as well, this will also clog in the P-Trap.
If you do put food scraps in the sink, I would suggest investing in a garbage
disposal. It will grind scraps up so they will pass through the drain without
clogging.
