“Boy,” said the farmer, “that sure makes me want to do the same.”

“Well, go ahead,” said his girlfriend. “It’s your cow.”

Thought for the Day

“The reason that adulation is not

displeasing is that, though untrue, it

shows one to be of consequence enough,

in one way or other, to induce people to lie.” — Lord Byron

• It’s still not known who made the following sage observation: “To succeed in politics, it is sometimes necessary to rise above your principles.”

• It was beloved American poet Robert Frost who made the following sage observation: “A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.”

• In 1938, Time magazine featured Adolph Hitler on the cover as its Man of the Year.

• You might be surprised at some of the amazing feats that can be accomplished with the aid of modern medicine. In 2008, two women in India gave birth at the age of 70. With the aid of egg donation and postmenopausal in vitro fertilization, Rajo Devi Lohan gave birth to her only child, a girl. Charan Singh Panwar and his wife, Omkari Panwar, already had two daughters and five grandchildren, but they wanted a son. Using the same procedure, Omkari had twins, a boy and a girl.

• The first time a toilet was ever seen on television was in the pilot episode of “Leave It to Beaver,” in 1957.

• The most common name in the world is Muhammed.

• If you live in the South, home of huge roaches, you prob-ably won’t be surprised to learn that a cockroach can live for a week without a head. When the headless insect does finally die, it’s from starvation, not from the loss of its head.

Q: My husband has a large collection of toys from the 1950s. Many are in original boxes. Since the time has come for us to liquidate, we hope you can help us. -- Susan and Ken, Tyler, Texas

A: Toy chests have become treasure chests during the past few decades. As Baby Boomers age, many scramble to find and purchase things they remember from their childhoods. This increased interest and demand has caused prices to soar. For example, a Red Ryder Daisy BB gun in its original box, which sold for $50 just a short time ago, now is valued at about $200.

To find out the value of your toys, I suggest you pur-chase a copy of one of the better price guides, Hake's Price Guide to Toys by Ted Hake. Hake also conducts toy auctions throughout the year. Contact him at P.O. Box 1444, York, PA 17404.

• • •Q: I have two free-standing dolls that I believe are

made of celluloid. They have painted faces and hair. I would appreciate anything you can tell me about them. -- Millie, Sun City West, Ariz.

A: Without knowing the maker of your doll, there isn't much I can tell you. There are celluloid dolls that are quite valuable, others that aren't. To determine which, you need to consult an expert. Two appraisers in your area are Barbara June Bradbury, 480-947-2378, and Corinne Cane, 602-906-1633. As with most profession-als, you should expect to pay for their services.

• • •Q: I have an assortment of Wells Fargo documents

from the 1880s and 1890s. Some are especially interest-ing since they reference areas that were then territories, such as New Mexico and Arizona. I would like to con-tact someone about them. -- Steve, El Paso, Texas

A: Contact the Wells Fargo Museum, 2733 San Diego Ave., San Diego, CA 92110; 619-328-3929.

Q: I’ve really been looking forward to Leonardo Di-Caprio’s “The Great Gatsby” coming out for Christmas, but now I hear it’s been postponed. Why the delay, and when will it come out? -- Cassandra W., via e-mail

A: The Baz Luhrmann 3-D adaptation of the classic novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald -- which also stars Tobey Maguire, Carey Mulligan and Joel Edgerton -- is now slated for a summer 2013 release. Warner Bros. president of distribu-tion, Dan Fellman, reasoned: “We think moviegoers of all ages are go-ing to embrace it, and it makes sense to ensure this unique film reaches the largest audience possible” [by giving it a summer release].

• • •Q: I just watched the season finale

of “Rizzoli & Isles,” and already I can’t wait for the next season. Please tell me it has been renewed for a fourth season! -- Dottie R., Roa-noke, Va.

A: I am happy to report that there will indeed be a fourth season of TNT’s hit drama, which stars Angie Harmon and Sasha Alex-ander. The summer’s No. 1 returning scripted drama will be back in summer 2013 for another 15 episodes of mystery-solving fun. TNT has proved to be a summer force to be reckoned with, with such original scripted hits as “R & I,” “Falling Skies,” “Perception,” “Dal-las” and more shows that are smashing viewing records all over the place.

• • •Q: Can you tell me what one of my favorite actors,

Gabriel Byrne, has been up to since “In Treatment”?

What can I see him in? -- Roger T., via e-mailA: The talented Irishman stars in the new History

channel scripted series called “Vikings,” which is based upon a real-life Viking king named Ragnar Lothbrok -- played by Travis Fimmel -- who literally exploded out of Scandanavia and onto the world stage in the 8th century. A young Norwegian farmer with a wife and family, Lothbrok is deeply frustrated by the unadven-turous policies of his local chieftan, Earl Haraldson (played by Gabriel), who continues to send his Viking raiders east every summer, to the Baltic states and Rus-sia, whose populations are as materially poor as them-

selves. Haraldson and Lothbrok become adversaries as Lothbrok’s ambitions threaten Haraldson’s rule. The series -- now filming in Ireland -- also stars Jessalyn Gilsig, Gustaf Skarsgard, Clive Standen and Katheryn Winnick. It is set for a 2013 release.

• • •Readers: A few months back,

I held a contest for one reader to win the great summer read “Eat, Drink, and Be Married” by Rebecca Bloom. After sifting through the en-tries, I have randomly chosen a win-ner: Dorine T. of Terryville, Conn.

Be on the lookout for your book, and I hope you enjoy it! All others who’d like to get in one last summer pleasure, head to amazon.com and order a copy for yourself -- and maybe one for a friend. And go to www.celebrityextraonline.com to read my full interview with the talented author, and to see what she has coming up next.
