Charges are pending against numerous burglary suspects accused of breaking into Rutherford and surrounding county homes and stealing almost $200,000 worth of stolen property, a Rutherford County Sheriff’s supervisor said Thursday. Sheriff’s detectives and Smyrna Police detectives served a search warrant Jan. 30 at a Smyrna home, recovering between $175,000 to $200,000 worth of property believed stolen from Rutherford, Williamson, Wilson and possibly Coffee counties, said Commander Preble A. Acton of the Criminal Investigations Division. About 15 to 20 burglaries occurred in RutherfordCounty. “This investigation has effectively shut down the burglaries that plagued approximately half of this county during the month of December and January,” Acton said. “This would not have been possible without the collaborative effort of Smyrna Police Department with our CID division and the sharp eye of CID secretary Cassie Johnson who noticed some similarities between pawned items and property that had been listed on a burglary report.” Sheriff Robert F. Arnold said he appreciated the agencies working together on the investigation. “The sheriff’s office dedicated resources to solve this rash of burglaries and to bring those responsible to arrests and prosecutions,” Arnold said. “We want our citizens to feel safe in their homes.” Since the search warrant was executed, detectives have been extremely busy

corralling suspects and following up on the investigation, Acton said. Charges are pending against numerous suspects accused of burglarizing more than 15 houses in Rutherford County, including homes in the Eagleville and Rockvale communities. “At this stage of the investigation, detectives are just now able to begin the process of calling victims to identify stolen property while working with other counties to identify property,” Acton said. Detectives will release names and charges of those involved in the near future. “We ask that victims of recent burglaries do not call detectives about property,” Acton said. “We are currently matching property with reports and will be contacting victims accordingly.” The commander said CID has taken a new approach in solving criminal activity requiring communication and constant feedback with the patrol division, reaching out to surrounding agencies and working closely with them to develop patterns of crime and actively seeking community involvement. “CID has taken a more direct approach using technology to pinpoint criminal activity and focusing on this area using patrol and unmarked units to saturate an area and talking to citizens that ultimately can lead to successful resolutions of criminal activity,” Acton said. “This particular case exemplifies what can happen when agencies and divisions come together to solve problems.”

Rash Of Burglaries Solved

When long-time Grand Ole Opry and WSM Radio announcer, Keith Bilbrey, and his lovely wife, Emy Joe, decided to expand their cooking repertoire, they didn’t call on Emeril, Bobby Flay, or even Paula Deen. Nope, they decided to “kick it up a notch” in a more creative way. in June, 2010, they began hosting a weekly, half-hour television program called Nashville Country Cookin’.” The program features special guest chefs from the world of country music and sports. Among those scheduled to appear are; Governor Mike Huckabee, The Oak Ridge Boys, Bill Anderson, T. G. Sheppard, Kelly Lang, Gloria Gaither, Lynda Randle, Joe and Areeda Stampley, T. Graham Brown and his friend Bubba Stoney (“The Redneck Chef”), Jeff and Lisa Cook (“Alabama”), Shelly West, Jan Howard, Jett

Williams, Georgette Jones, Mandy Barnett, The Grascals, The Roys, Craig and Lisa Hentrich (Tennessee Titans punter) and Tiffany Johnson and Wayne Elsey from Soles 4 Souls. For added reality, the program is filmed in a real, working kitchen. Each episode begins with a brief interview followed by a trip to the kitchen where the Bilbreys and their special chef for the week prepare a favorite recipe. It’s a fast-paced, fun half-hour with a few surprises along the way, including occasional visits to interesting eateries throughout the South. You can see Emy Joe and Keith on Dish Network channel 232 every Saturday at 8:30 AM CST.

A Message From Your Mayor

This month I would like to do something a little different. I would like to take an oppournity to publicly say THANKS to the people who work for the City of Eagleville. You the citizens and the City of Eagleville are very fortunate to have a dedicated staff of employees who work hard every day to enhance the quality of life in Eagleville. Our City Manager, William Haston has many years of municipal and

government experience. William’s presence has made a huge difference in a short time. The fact of having someone in house with legal and financial expertise makes the daily decision process more efficient and far more productive.

Our Fire Chief, Terry Greene, has recruited more firemen to help protect our city and community. Chief Greene has bought a new truck and other safety equipment as well to protect our firefighters. Since the first day that Terry became Chief he has strived to make Eagleville the best fire department in the county. We all know building and improving is a slow process, however, Chief Greene has us on the right track. The city park in managed by Jeff Mooneyham. Please visit our park and witness the fine job Jeff has done with

the park. We have one of the neatest, cleanest public facilities anywhere. Jeff is continually updating equipment and making repairs. In the next few weeks the play ground will have all new mulch installed .

Carolyn Sapelak is the administrative assistant. Some of Carolyn’s job includes: answers phones, files, city court recorder. Carolyn assist the citizens and make city hall more efficient . Many times she is finding answers to citizens questions and helping to solve their problems. Amy Von Almen is our city recorder. Most of you know and have met Amy. The city recorder job is far more than most people think. She is chief financial officer for the city, pays all bills, and is responsible

for collecting all property taxes. The city recorder is directly held responsible to the state comptroller’s office. The city recorder is a job which carries many duties. As by a new state law all cities must have a certified financial planner. This is a two year program that Amy is in the process of completing. Amy attends class with other city recorders throughout middle Tennessee. So far, Amy has past every test as one of the top in each class.

The newest member of our team is Police Chief Eli Stroud. Chief Stroud is dedicated to serving and protecting the citizens of Eagleville. Chief Stroud served six years in The United States Marine Corp, receiving an HONORABLE discharge before becoming a police officer. Eli might be new to many citizens in Eagleville, but not new to law enforcement. The Police Officers Standard Training Commission recommended Chief Stroud, as well as ALL his former employers where he served as a police officer. Linda Dansby is our codes administrator. Mrs. Dansby oversees new construction as well

as remodeling to assure our citizens have a safe place to live. Linda’s job wears many hats from trash, unsafe building, signs, parking ,zoning, and annexation of property. Almost every daily activity in our city is under the watchful eye of our codes administrator.

Jeff Solomon is our city accountant. Since Jeff came aboard, our financial reports have been stream lined and detailed to where we can all understand at all times the spending, income and financial strength of our city. Leon Sharber is our city attorney. Mr. Sharber has many years experience practicing law in Middle Tennessee. We depend on him for legal advice on a daily basics, as well, he attends every city council meeting to assure all procedures are

legally followed. I talk to Mr. Sharber several times each week to seek legal advice for our city business. Thank you for allowing me to publicly THANK each one of our city employees for the work they do to enhance the quality of life for our city and its citizens. I work hand and hand with these people on a daily basics. I would like to say it is an honor to work with loyal, dedicated, honest people. THANK YOU! Please remember to support our school, its staff and students, and shop locally to support our businesses. As always, if I can be assistance call my personal cell number at 849-6509.Sincerely,Sam Tune, Eagleville Mayor

A Step Back in Time By Bobbie Sue Shelton-Lonas

In the late 1800’s, Eagleville was described as; “a beautiful little village nestled at the foot of what are called the Harpeth Hills, which rise to considerable height and covered with beautiful blue grass sod. These hills form a lovely background on the west of the little town. On the east of the village the land stretches away in fine, fertile level fields”. One can only imagine how the village of Eagleville looked in those days. But for those of us who calls Eagleville “Home”, we can certainly be proud that we still have reminders of that early village of Eagleville. Two beautiful restored old homes that were standing in those days, still stand proud on each end of our home-town; the Chesley Williams Home on the south end of town and the McCord Home on the north end. The McCord Home was built by William Harrison McCord, the son of Allen Nichols and Jane Jordan McCord. William Harrison, born in 1838, studied at

Union University in Murfreesboro, graduating from the University of Louisiana. His graduate work was completed at the College of Surgeons in Philadelphia, a very prestigious school at that time. During the Civil War, he served in General Nathan Bedford Forrest’s Company as a surgeon in the 13th Regiment Tennessee Cavalry. On December 18, 1868 he married his first cousin, Sarah Macon Williams, (b.1845 d. 1890), the daughter of Chesley and Elizabeth Jordan Williams. Sarah was educated at Mary Sharp College in Winchester, Tennessee. She was a writer of short stories and poems and several were published. For a wedding present, Chesley Williams gave his daughter, Sarah and her new husband, 196.5 acres or land, a worth of about $5940 in 1868. This was a customary practice for Chesley and Elizabeth, giving all of their children parcels of land as wedding presents. Five children were born to Dr. McCord and his wife

Sarah; Elizabeth J. (b. 1870 d.1870), William Edward (b. 1871 d. 1944), John Harrison (Tip) (b. 1871 d. 1962), Emmett Allen (b. 1875 d. 1960), and Annie V. (b. 1880 d. 1931). Immediately after the war, Dr. William H. McCord began his practice in Eagleville. Dr. and Mrs. McCord were prominent Eagleville citizens during the period of its greatest growth. From the close of the Civil War through the early 1900’s, Eagleville had several tobacco factories, a tiling factory, saw mills (one of which Dr. McCord owned), two or three blacksmith shops, funeral home, various trade shops, six churches and four schools. McCord served on the board of the Eagleville School, a co-educational preparatory school and chartered four-year college. The school offered Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees and a curriculum including Latin, Greek, Hebrew, astronomy, philosophy, and music. Education is important to the parents of a growing

family, and so is housing. The last of the McCord’s four surviving children was born in 1880. A new house was needed that would not only provide ample space for his family, but also reflect Dr. McCord’s position in the town as physician, businessman, and community leader. In 1882, the family moved into their newly constructed two-story white house, three-tenths of a mile north from the center of Eagleville on Highway 41 A N (now Main Street). It faces east, prominently situated on a knoll, overlooking the surrounding area. Sarah McCord died on June 4, 1890, seven days before her forty-fifth birthday. Dr. McCord died six years later at fifty-five years of age. John Harrison, the McCord’s second son, owned and lived in the house until his death in 1962. In 1984, the Department of History at Middle Tennessee State University, Murfreesboro, Tn. was given permission, by William P. McCord, to use the McCord Home as a Historic Preservation Program project. As stated in the report; “The McCord House has been a familiar part of Eagleville’s history and landscape for over a hundred years. Even though it is currently home to a family of raccoons and time and weather have not been kind, the house still maintains an air of majesty from its high vantage point. At the beginning of this project, the team was unsure as to what course to follow in that each of them was attracted to the house for various reasons. After much thought and an inspection of the house, they decided that they would first record the house as accurately as possible in the time allowed them and, second, in spite of its The McCord House c. 1900 - (L-R): “Aunt” Patsy, Mary Magdelene Puckett, Annie V. McCord, Laura Green McCord, John Harrison McCord

deteriorating condition, nominate the house for a listing on the National Register of Historic Sites for its architectural significance. The team has spent many hours taking measurements and photographs of the house, and researching background information. According to the Structure Report prepared by the project group, the McCord House has many features that set it apart from similar houses built in the area in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. The clapboarded, two-story building is constructed in a T-shape. The base of the “T” is formed by twin, two-story projecting bays, running north and south with cross-gable roofs. Two interior brick chimneys pierce the asphalt-shingled roof. There was originally a detached kitchen with a breezeway, which was enclosed. Outbuildings around the house included a root cellar, a chicken house and various feed and storage sheds. A “Delco” house was relocated behind the barn from its original position near the highway. Built in 1919, it housed a generator which supplied electricity to the McCord house and two others locate directly across the road. These were the first electrified houses in the community. The first floor porch, which continues around the southeast corner, was extended and lengthened in the 1920’s to the wall of the south wing projection. The rear area of the porch was later enclosed to accommodate a bathroom. These are the only alternations to the main house and limited to the exterior. The structure of the house has not been changed. The walnut handrail and turned balusters on the central stairway are reputed to have been crafted by Tom B. Wilson, a local cabinet and furniture maker whose work can still be found in Eagleville homes. When the project work was completed, a very thorough report prepared by Linda P. Center, Anne Fottrell, Russ A. Kahn and Dorothy W. King. Their report and a nomination form were filed with the National Register of Historic Places and on December 20, 1984, the McCord Home and six acres of land was placed in the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service of the United States Department of the Interior. For the last thirteen years, this beautiful restored historical home has been the residence of Don and Ray Anne McCord, the great grandson of Dr. and Mrs. McCord. In the mid 1990’s Don, Ray Anne and family started the enormous task of clearing the debris from the structure and the grounds. The house had remained empty for approximately 30 years except for the raccoon families that had occupied the home. Even with all the work the McCord’s had completed on their own, it took more than another year working with contractors before the home was restored and ready for occupancy. (Statement from the 1984 Historic Structure Report) “We hope we have been successful in documenting the house as it stands now and have hopes that some day it can be restored to its former glory.” AND IT WAS! The Eagleville Community is very fortunate to have the Department of History from Middle Tennessee State University to select the McCord Home as one of their projects of the Historic Preservation Program. Their report and pictures provide very important historical material on early structures.

Events for FebruaryFebruary 12 - Sweetheart Sunday

February 19 - Concert by Diva Black

On the Christian calendar, we are in the Season of Lent. This season lasts for forty days (not counting Sundays, for each Sunday is a “little Easter), beginning with Ash Wednesday and ending with the Saturday before Easter. The word Lent comes from an Anglo-Saxon word lencten, meaning “spring.” But for centuries Lent has been a time of penance, a time of reflecting on how nearly our lives conform to God’s will for us, that is, reflecting on how often we have failed to keep God’s commandments. We cannot understand or appreciate the miracle of the Resurrection on Easter without first recognizing our need for the forgiveness and the new life that only God through Jesus Christ can offer. For several generations, Lent has been a time when folks “gave up” something for those forty days as a sign of repentance. Some would give up coffee or cigarettes; others would deny themselves candy or going to the movies. Occasionally, some would give up something that was out of season or something they did not like or enjoy anyway. But these kinds of practices miss the point of what is sometimes called “Lenten self-denial.” For if Lent is to be a time of penance and thereby preparation for the

Easter celebration, then what we do during the Lenten season must bring us closer to God’s will and way for our lives. And what we do during the Lenten season should be something we want to continue even after the forty day observance. For example, could we

Decide to give up the cancer of gossip, of saying unkind things about others;Vow to stop telling those lies that we seek to hide by calling them “fibs” or “stretching the truth a bit;” Determine to no longer keep silent when we have an opportunity to tell a friend or acquaintance about what Christ has done for us;Or resolve to turn off the television set for fifteen minutes each day and spend that time in Bible study, prayer, and meditation?

These and many similar kinds of commitments will draw each of us closer to God. Think carefully, pray, decide for yourself what you can do during these days of Lent that will enhance your relationship with God, that will enable your to strengthen your commitment to the will of God for your life, that will lead you toward that life abundant and life everlasting that Christ promises to all those who love and serve him.

PASTOR’S PONDERINGSBy Pastor Ken Sharp, Jackson Ridge Community Church

The Psalmist declares in Psalm 119:108, “Accept, I beseech You, the freewill-offerings of my mouth, O Lord.” How sad that there is among Christians so comparatively little of this kind of freewill offering. The reason is that the Lord occupies only a small part of our conversation. More than likely, the Psalmist had public worship in mind, and yet his very striking phrase suggests so much more than public worship alone. To a God Who has done so exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or even think, we offer so very little real praise. And often, when our tongues do turn to spiritual topics, it is often to doctrinal discussions or personal criticism of some church or servant of the Lord. Have you ever stopped to think of what might happen in your life if you were to devote one-tenth of your words as freewill offerings in thanksgiving for God’s marvelous grace to you through the Lord Jesus Christ? Don’t you think that the windows of Heaven would be opened to pour down their spiritual blessings upon your life? Imagine the blessing we would be to others and for the Lord if we developed that kind of daily practice!

THE BUZZ AROUND CO-OPMARCH PLANTING

It is now time to plant your cole crops, onions and potatoes. These all do best in well drained soil with the ph at 4.8 to 5.5. Potatoes like the acid soil so do not lime. Potatoes can be then side dressed with ammonium nitrate or sulfate about 4-6 inches away. They like lots of organic matter. This all can be added to the hills when sprouts break through and are 6-8 inches tall. It is best to wait until soil temperatures reach above 60 degrees before planting seeds or seedlings. Always remember that cole crops are frost tolerant but may not survive a hard freeze. These cole crops also prefer well drained soil with a ph of 6. Adding wood ashes to the soil are good for cole crops, and it sweetens the soil.

It’s Just My Opinion! by Debbie Ryan, Owner of Eagleville Times

Sewer or Not!How many times will we be asked to fill out a survey in attempts to get money to obtain a sewer for Eagleville?It’s my understanding, the more money that can be secured through grants, the lesser the fee to tap on to the sewer and the monthly cost.If this is the case, bring on the surveys.There’s no way I’d be willing to pay $1,000 to tap on to a sewer, plus, payment of a $100 monthly water bill. And, I don’t know of anyone else who would be willing to do that.The fact is, Eagleville is drowning in waste water. Fifty years ago the city was thrieving with business and everyone’s septic may have worked fine, but as years go by, the land and settlement of the water changes things.The city has got to do something to prepare for the cleanup or there will be no future for Eagleville.It’s now time we put our petty differences aside and ill informed preconceptions and work toward a better environment and a more enticing area to live and raise our children. Hopefully, we all have this common goal.Let’s move on!

Feedback from Feb. 2012 opinion....I came out of the Eagleville Council meeting, last Thursday night, very bothered by one of the issues being discussed.It was recommended by the new city manager to hire a new police chief. The vote passed to hire a police chief for the City of Eagleville but the discussion of the issue made me want to share my opinion on this subject.It was suggested by Councilman Ronnie Hill, that having a police officer writing speeding tickets will cause Eagleville to be known as a “speed trap”.I think having an officer writing speeding tickets only makes us known as a town where you won’t get away with breaking the law.For the past couple of months, since the town has been without a police officer, I have noticed the rise in speeding. Just prior to writing this, I just saw a red pickup truck pass a car in a 40 mph speed zone, right in front of the entrance to the City Park. Just one example!There was much talk that our last police officers wrote speeding tickets that were undeserved. The fact of the matter, Vice Mayor Alan Ball did a survey based on 100 random speeding tickets.40% of tickets written were 20 mph over the limit30% of tickets written were 18 mph over the limit30% of tickets written were 14 mph over the limitNo tickets were written under 14 mph over the speed limit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`Jim Wilkinson of Eagleville wrote: In your opinion you are 100% right. Eagleville has been my home for 72 years I played in the streets and on the sidewalks before they were ever concreted but I am

totally ashamed of it now and don’t let anyone know that I am from Eagleville. In the 50 and 60’s it was a great little town; it’s now nothing but a crossroad. I say as for the law and speed limits forget them and let speeders bust the crossroads open, SPEED TRAP, HOW CAN IT BE A SPEED TRAP WHEN SPEED ZONES ARE POSTED??? If your speed exceeds posted speeds then you are breaking the law.You know YOU CAN NOT FIX STUPID. Seems like that is ones who are trying to run our use to be town.Just my opinion and probably many more who won’t speak out!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`Joy True of Eagleville wrote:Our former chief did more than write speed tickets. When I reported that I had received a threat and asked him to patrol my subdivision; he took immediate action. The patrol car was a welcome sight to me and my neighbors.I understand he also played a role in breaking up a theft ring.We need a police officer to patrol Hwy 99 from Eagleville to Rockvale from 7 am to 9 am and again from 3 pm to 5 pm. The double yellow lines and speed limits do not mean anything to those traveling to and from Murfreesboro during those hours.So what; if he does write a few tickets. Speed limits need to be observed. We also need our subdivision to be patroled.P.S. We also need a sewage disposal system.

It seems that every time I turn on the radio or television, I hear the claim “It’s all natural” as if all

natural is always good for us. The other day I went into one of those bath and body stores to purchase shaving cream, when the sales clerk approached me with the hope of selling a new and improved shaving cream and aftershave combo pack. I explained that I was happy with my current brand of shaving cream and had used it for years with great success, without breakouts to my sensitive skin, when she exclaimed, “Sir, it’s all natural.” I quipped, “Well, poison ivy is all natural—but I won’t be rubbing it on my face.” Radio and television ads seem to be obsessed with “all natural” from skin care products to alternatives for Viagra® and Prozac®. Our obsession with natural is fueled by the appeal to be “wholesome,” “green,” “organic,” and yes, “all natural.” Is it possible that our fixation on natural has led us to falsely believe that “all natural” is better for us, without questioning whether or not it’s safe? Belladonna (Solanum) sap, mercury, and arsenic are a few examples of “all natural,” or should I say—naturally deadly. With all the hype surrounding the legalization of marijuana (for medicinal purposes), some proponents say it is “harmless and good for you” because it’s an “all natural” herb that can have health benefits. I heard a report of a woman who claimed it was safe to breastfeed while smoking marijuana, because it’s “natural.” Another person argued that marijuana is safe because there are no known cases of anyone overdosing on it. Maybe those opinions are proof that marijuana is bad for you, because those people seem to have smoked from the same wacky pipe. I question beliefs such as the following: hot smoke in your lungs is okay, and something

that can cause anxiety, depression, and psychosis without killing you cannot be bad as long as it’s all natural. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued dietary supplement alerts and information about many all natural ingredients, including these common products: aristolochic acid, silver (colloidal silver), ephedrine, kava, red yeast rice, and St. John’s wort. As reported by the FDA, St. John’s wort may interfere with prescription medications used to treat medical conditions such as heart disease, depression, seizures, certain cancers, and oral contraceptives. Red yeast rice may cause permanent kidney impairment, especially when used with antibiotics, medications for high cholesterol, and drugs used to treat fungal and HIV infections. These are only two examples of all natural products that may cause harm. If you are considering using any dietary supplement or all natural products, first gather information from reliable sources such as the FDA (www.fda.gov), National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (www.nccam.nih.gov), and my favorite consumer health source, the Preston Medical Library at [email protected] or call 865-305-9525. These are free community resources available to you no matter where you live. I encourage you to take advantage of them whenever possible. Don’t get me wrong—I am a strong proponent of natural alternatives such as acupuncture, massage, and herbs. However, just because something is natural and organic doesn’t mean that it is safe to use in every situation. Please discuss any herbs, dietary supplements, or alternative medicine with your healthcare provider. Never underestimate the power of Mother Nature!

Little Stories About You & Me By Nancy Allen

It was a week before Valentine’s Day. The road was packed with vehicles like hearts in a box waiting to spread their love.

Everyone was in a hurry—I know I was. I managed to edge my way into the passing lane and there she was. A woman had pulled her car across my lane and her car was moving at a snail’s pace. There was no place to go. I hit her broadside. “I was thinking about shopping,” she said. “I don’t know why I pulled out into all this traffic.” I was so thankful she was not killed. The jolt threw her under the dashboard on the passenger side of her car. The car in front of me was demolished. I had my seat belt on so I didn’t go through the windshield, but my head hit the steering wheel and I had a huge “goose egg” on my forehead that made me groggy and reduced to unintelligible jabber. When the ambulance arrived the EMT noticed my hands. “Her hands are red. There must be something wrong to make them red,” I heard him say. “No,” I tried to tell him. “There is something wrong with her hands,” I heard him tell the doctor he was talking to on the phone. “Paint,” I mumbled. You see, I had been having fun finger painting with a group of preschoolers. We were making heart pictures. Finger painting is messy and sometimes the stains stay with you, but the rewards are many: Spread newspaper on a hard-surface floor. Wear an old shirt to protect your

clothes. Use a white shiny paper for your canvas. Dip your fingers in water and let them drip on the paper making it slightly wets, then dip your fingers in the paint and begin shaping your design. When finished place your artwork on another newspaper to dry. Finger paint was first used by the American educator Ruth Faison Shaw in Rome, Italy in 1931. She found finger painting to have therapeutic and emotional healing value for people of all ages and abilities. Tyler Ramsey began a new technique called “Reckless Art” in 2002. He vowed never to touch a brush again and finger paints with oils. He paints in surgical gloves—not a bad idea. However, for the younger set I believe gloves would eliminate the therapeutic value of feeling the paint and getting the hands messy. Finger painting artist Nick Benjamin claims he prefers getting the fingers in the paint bonding with the artwork and achieving a blending of the paints that can’t be done with brushes. Jimmy Lee Sudduth said he likes finger painting because his fingers don’t wear out the way brushes do. Finger paint is non-toxic and especially good for preschoolers. If they eat some of it, there shouldn’t be a problem. You can make your own paint with the following recipe: 4 tablespoons sugar ½ cup cornstarch 2 cups cold water food coloring After painting if you get into an accident remember to tell the people at the scene that you’ve been finger painting. Otherwise they may think you’re turning red or maybe even blue.

Red Hands

You know that feeling you get when you buy new clothes and wear them for the first time? Don’t you

feel great? When you wear new clothes, it feels as if you are a new person. It’s the same feeling you get after your house has been freshly painted. It feels like a new home. Not that the old you was so bad, but the new you can conquer the world. It shows in your attitude. It’s written all over your face. People might even comment that there is something different about you… and it’s not just your clothes. So if new clothes make you feel so good, why do we go to so much trouble to make sure nobody knows they are new? When I was growing up, getting a new pair of sneakers was cause for a private celebration. But what did we do? We took those sneakers out in the yard, rolled them in dirt and beat the stuffing out of them with a baseball bat until you could tell someone you’d had them for months and they would believe it. It was apparently okay to allow one’s friends to think they were not very observant. When we acquired a new pair of jeans, we were ecstatic in spite of the amount of effort and laundry detergent required to make them look like they weren’t… a new pair of jeans. “New? Nah, I’ve had these for years.” I believe the idea here was to make your friends think you had lost so much weigh you could fit into your old jeans again. It made sense that getting your sister’s hand-me-down jeans would be the best scenario: “new” jeans without all the work. Unfortunately, we – like teenagers everywhere – did not make sense at all. Hand-me-downs were an embarrassment to be avoided at all costs. You’d go naked before you’d allow your sister to comment on “her” jeans within earshot of your friends. What should we blame for this lack of common sense? In my opinion, it all started with Permanent Press shirts. We didn’t want the work of ironing shirts, but

to wear one with wrinkles meant you were probably brought up by wolves. Permanent Press meant you never have to iron shirts again, right? Not really. But it was all the excuse we needed. Present day, if there are a few wrinkles in your shirt (even Permanent Press) you are considered “cool.” If your hair has the Just-Rolled-Out-Of-Bed look, you’re not lazy, you’re fashionable. If you also haven’t shaved in three days, you are nominated for Man-of-the Year. Shortly after Permanent Press came pre-washed jeans. New jeans without the work! The collective cry went up: Huzzah! They were more expensive, but to many of us, they were well worth it. When we got holes in them, our moms put patches on them. That soon became a fashion faux pas just like hand-me-downs. So rather than making patches the “in” thing, we made holes the “in” thing. What?! Now we can buy jeans, pre-frayed and perforated with lots of holes, and they cost MORE money than perfectly intact jeans! Similarly, in the case of bikinis, the less fabric there is, the more it costs. Oooh! That really burns my bagels!... Not that I could wear a bikini anyway. It’s only a matter of time before we will be able to buy pre-smudged eyewear at twice the price of the spotless pair. We can look forward to buying premium bathtubs with soap scum rings permanently engraved into the enamel and mirrors with pre-etched water spots. How about cars that come with the “rusted look” option? Only $300 more! Another $200 if you want the “rear-ended look.” Shopping-cart dings are $50 each. The most sought-after china pattern will have gravy stains and risotto decorating the rims. Premium carpeting will come with Kool-Aid stains and pet hair. And Macy’s will sell men’s underwear with skid marks embroidered in them. However, only those people with the most discerning tastes will buy these items. They are, of course, those people with more money… and less sense.
