SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2016 5 A Never ‘Stop, drop and Roll’ with a deep-fried turkey The human brain. Most of us have one. For those who don’t, there are warning labels. Unfortunately, these warn- ings don’t appear on actual individuals. Instead, they are issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, which has the monumental task of thinking up ways people might injure themselves using standard has prompted the commission to issue a special, multi-paged consumer alert called: Fryer, Fryer Pants on Fire. Using this handy com- bustible newspaper page, I’ve organized a safety checklist from the American National Standards Institute, which oversees turkey-fryer safety standards, as well as any con- sumer product that includes the three components of what safety experts call the Triangle of Fire: 1) A heat source. 2) A meat product. 3) An intoxicated male. This brings us to safety tip number one: Never leave your turkey unattended. Studies show that once the initial excitement of watching hot oil has passed, men quickly get bored and wander off in search of the nearest flat-screen TV. So, as a pre- caution, the standards insti- tute suggests that wives keep an eye on their turkey at all times — or, at the very least, until he’s done using the deep fryer. Tip number two: Always use turkey fryers outdoors. Given the opportunity, men Watch “Pies Plus” Homemade pies, arts and craft s.

His latest book, “Pearls of Writing Wisdom” is available online at Port Hole Books.com Genealogical Soc. to present ‘Black Suitcase Mystery’ Author Gail Elliott Downs will be speaking to the Siuslaw Genealogical Society on Wednesday, Nov. 16, at 7 p.m., at the Siuslaw Public Library, about her book “The Black Suitcase Mystery.” The mystery was the story of the World War II airman, her distant relative, who wrote the letters and what happened to him, his crew and his young bride. The real life mystery of the letters in the suitcase took four years to solve. The sleuthing began in 1991, the first year of the 50th anniversary of World War II, as part of an assign- ment given to fifth graders by Downs, who was then a school librarian in Missouri. The purpose of the assign- ment was not only to learn about World War II and the importance of family history, but to also teach research tech- niques to the young student by using primary sources — in this case the 200 letters in the Downs family black suitcase. What the students discov- ered and recovered over the four years of their research was a poignant story of love against the backdrop of a far- away war, in particular the experiences of B-24 Liberator bomber crews. The project, which started out as a simple school library assignment, eventually gar- nered national attention and resulted in history exhibitions and programs for veterans. President Clinton even men- tioned the group’s work in a 1994 Memorial Day speech. The event is free and open to the public, and copies of The Black Suitcase Mystery will be available for purchase from Downs at the conclusion of the discussion. Refreshments, including a cake made from a World War II era recipe without eggs, milk or butter, will be provid- ed. VOICE YOUR OPINION! Write a Letter to the Editor: E DITOR @T HE S IUSLAW N EWS .

And finally, tip number three: Don’t move fryer while it is in operation. You should always wait until the oil is completely cooled before moving your fryer. The only exception to this, of course, is if your wife catches you cooking in the living room. 1624 Highway 101 (next to A&W) –- 997-6337 Pastor George Pagel – Something for the entire family. Sun.

FLORENCE CHURCH OF CHRIST will set up their turkey fryer in the living room in order to watch football while cooking. This is dangerous because, should his team score at the wrong moment, there’s a good chance the turkey will get spiked into the fryer. And hey, even if you man- age to avoid this hazardous situation, there’s also your home’s resale value to consid- er — meaning that, should you ever decide to sell, describing your home to a potential buyer as having “three bedrooms, two baths and a pleasant fried-turkey smell” will, in many cases, “War is still not the answer.” FCNL We worship in homes at 11am Sundays Call 997-4237 or 902-9511 for locations.

While the commission gen- erally stays ahead of the curve with the help of researchers, lab studies and a select group of retired circus chimps, from time to time a product is embraced so tightly by the general public that there’s simply no time to warn them that actually embracing it could result in serious injury. According to the safety commission, reports of house fires involving large men sub- merging whole turkeys into deep fryers has risen dramati- cally in the past decade.
