The You Docs: Answers about eggs, flaxseed and funny-color sweat
I had a heart attack and had two stents inserted in my arteries. I love eggs, but limit them to one or two a week. I just read that studies found that eggs are not related to heart attacks. Are eggs really OK to eat every day?

Local actors take on funny accents, hair in 'Rapunzel'
Five Oconee County children will appear in eight performances of "Rapunzel," a mayhem-filled tale of rare vegetables, royal quests and of course, long hair, beginning Feb. 25 at the Athens Little Playhouse.

Paddy's humor goes long way
CHASKA, Minn. - At least Padraig Harrington still has his sense of humor. Playing with Tiger Woods for one day can suck the life out of a player, not to mention wreak havoc on his game. Harrington's done it for three straight rounds now, and while the results aren't anything he cares to remember, he hasn't given up hope, either.

Luke Smith: Monday's front page was funny

I found the front page of Monday's paper comical. The Banner-Herald, which stays pretty far to the left for the most part, depicted 1960s radical Bill Ayers' speech in photos for exactly what it was.

The three smaller pictures below the main photo of Ayers speaking at the Human Rights Festival were classic. The caption associated with those pictures read, in part, "At far left, Ayers ... ." I could not have said it better myself.

Next, the man in the middle photo, with his mouth open, tongue hanging out, and wearing an outfit to match his expression, well-represented the crowd.

It appears that there was one person in the crowd with a little sense - photo appropriately on the right - who was kind enough to cover her baby's ears for Ayers' speech.

Thanks, Banner-Herald, for the humor.
