Dear Diver,
If an "apple a day keeps the doctor away" and an "aspirin a day helps reduce the risk of heart disease," what would
happen if I ate an aspirin and an apple a day?

Dear Healthy One,
What would happen? What would happen if I walked outside right now and all that is life flashed there before me,
right in front of my face? All I had known, my life and my health to be there for me to really see? Then what? Would
I eat an apple?

Diver,
I'm a mother of four. At what age should you stop tucking children in? I have kids that think they should be able to
watch PG-13 movies and curse (none of them are 13) yet they can't get to bed without being tucked in. So, when is the
correct age to stop doing this?
- Mom
Dear Mom,
We all want someone to tuck us in every now and then. Tucking your children in is a loving habit I'm sure you've both
grown comfortable with. Perhaps you are unsure of the new habits they are developing, like cursing and PG-13 movies.
Are they just a new phase of habits, or discovery? Is there a difference?
- Sincerely yours,
Diver
Dear Diver,
My girlfriend says she can't kiss me because of my bad breath. What are some things I can do to improve my fish
breath?

You sound like a thoughtful boyfriend. Perhaps your girlfriend and you can take up the habit of eating sushi to
cleanse your pallet.

Dear Diver,
Often, when I come across the police blotter, I read about a man who is reportedly weaving his Schwinn and drunk. I
wonder if this is the same guy I see weaving down the street on a bike near my apartment between the 700 and 800
blocks on E. Fourth Ave. some afternoons. Is this the same guy?

Tricycle Teetotaller,
Maybe it is the same guy. I wouldn't doubt it.
There's your honest answer, honestly yours,
- Diver
