Parents say the darndest things Art Linkletter made a fortune by showing us that “Kids Say the Darndest Things,” but, as many a teacher will tell you, parents writing excuses for their children’s absences from school can be even more amazing. Here are some examples, as compiled by Pinellas County school administrative assistant Dan McAuliffe: • “Dear School. Please eckuse John being absent on January 28, 29,30,31,32,33.” • “Chris has an acre in his side.” • “Mary could not come to school because she was bothered by very close veins.” • “John has been absent because he had two teeth taken off his face.” » • “My son is under the doctor’s care and should not take PE. Please execute him.” • “Please excuse Ray Friday. He has loose vowels.” • “Please excuse Gloria from Jim for a few days. Yesterday she fell off a tree and misplaced her hip.” • “Mary Ann was absent £)ec. 11-16 because she had a fever, sore throat, head ache and upset stomach. Her sister was also sick, fever and sore throat. Her brother had a low grade fever and aqhed all over. I wasn't the best either, sore throat and fever. There must be a flu going around. Her father even got hot last night.” Job outlook Getting a raise may really mean getting less money Many people who got raiises in 1977-4978 actually lost money, according to the Tax Foundation. For ''example, if a married couple (one wage earner, two children) earned SIO,OOO in 1977. a pay increase of 7.4 per cent boosted their income to $10,740 and increase of $740. This supposedly would enable the family to hold their own against inflation in 1978. But in fact, federal taxes slashed the raise back to $545. When measured against 1977 dollars, the family actually suffered a net lost of slll (when aftertax income is adjusted for inflation). The net loss (at 7.4 per cent) was $157 for a family earning $20,000; $273 for a family earning $25,000; $389 for a family earning $30,000 and $459 for a family earning $35,000. Surgery for men: an uplifting experience Face lifts for men are on the rise. A Los Angeles plastic surgeon reports that corporate executives, who are determined to look younger, have triggered a boom in face lifts and other types of cosmetic surgery for men The surgeon. Dr. John Williams, says that some businessmen are paying roughly the price of a new car — or up to $5,000 — to have cosmetic work done on droopy eyelids and to have nose jobs, forehead lifts or even complete face lifts. Dr. Williams estimates that the number of men he sees in his practice has soared 1,000 per cent since 1973, and that most of these patients are businessmen, between the ages of 45 and 60 who want to look younger. The doctor says that a typical case involved a 53-year-old stockbroker whose face was so ravaged that he looked in his 60’s and ready for retirement. Williams says that the man wanted to run his company for another 10 years or more and didn’t want anybody thinking he was older than he was. The doctor says that some cosmetic surgery results have been miraculous, resulting in men looking a decade younger. In other cases, however, Williams says “you wonder if you did anything for them.”
