LOCALLY OWNED AND OPERATED
Open 4 days a week!
Since the introduction of
Mr. Knowitall, who is our
resident historian, economist,
food critic, movie reviewer,
foreign affairs consultant, sci-
ence correspondent, con-
sumer products expert and
vending machine repairman
(not necessarily in that order),
many of you have written in
seeking advice about holiday
gift-giving.
Due to the enormous vol-
ume of email we received,
they will be answered
through a lottery-style
process — which means that,
until he wins the lottery, Mr.
Knowitall will continue to
answer your questions.
So let us begin.
Dear Mr. Knowitall: Do
those electronic muscle stim-
ulators really help trim fat
and tone muscles?
— Really hope so in
Raleigh, NC
Dear Really: As you know,
the principle behind the
device is the utilization of a
continuous sequence of small
shocks that stimulates muscle
think of it is to visualize a car
and its battery. Now visualize
the car, the battery — and a
pair of jumper cables
clamped to your buttocks as
someone starts the engine.
(OK, that’s enough)
While there’s no scientific
proof this will trim fat and
build muscle, studies show
that most people find them-
selves stimulated enough to
go to the gym after one ses-
sion.
Dear Mr. Knowitall: I’m
looking at getting my hus-
band something to help with
his snoring. Any suggestions?
— Yawning in Yachats,
Ore.
Dear Yawning: I’ll tell you
there are a lot of products out
there that claim to end snor-
ing problems, and most of
these products are 100 per-
cent effective. And though
they may look and cost dif-
ferently, these devices all rely
on the same two principles,
which are:
• Fit into someone’s nos-
trils
• Be really uncomfortable

This combination is proven
effective because it:

ing
My advice is to try rolling
him on his side. If that does-
n’t work try rolling him the
other way. If that doesn’t
work, keep rolling until you
hear a big thud. Repeat this
until he’s too frightened to
sleep.
Dear Mr. Knowitall: I’m
thinking of getting my wife
some of that spray that helps
remove body hair. Is it safe?
— Harry in Harrisburg,
Pa.
Dear Harry: Not for you,
it isn’t.
Dear Mr. Knowitall: I’d
like to get my wife a personal
protection device for
Christmas. I heard about
something on the Internet
that’s a combination pepper-
spray gun, flash light and
whistle.
Any idea where to find it?
— Wondering in Welches,
Ore.
Dear Wondering: It’s
called the Pepper Escort
defense kit and was invented
by Dan McClarin out of con-
cern for his daughters, who
are apparently very attractive
and excellent at multi-task-

The gun shoots a steady
stream of pepper spray, which
causes burning of the eyes
and throat, constriction of the
nasal passages, and inhibited
breathing.
Aimed in the opposite
direction, the gun can be
equally effective against an
attacker.
In addition, you can also
blow your whistle and shine
the flashlight in his eyes.
Hey, Yawning in Yachats, if
you’re still reading, this is
one option I hadn’t thought
of...
Unfortunately, that’s all we
have time for today because,
as I’m sure you understand,
Mr. Knowitall is a busy man.
Especially when the Cheetos
runs out in the vending
machine. If you have any
gift-buying questions, write
to Mr. Knowitall at nhick-
son@ thesiuslawnews.com
and I’ll make sure he gets it.
Your question, I mean.
Best Burger!
