THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
I bought my 14-year-old son a dog because he's been having a hard time after his mom and I broke up but I told him it was because he was doing well in school and is growing into a polite and caring young man. Both are true. He loves his dog Lucy more than anything in the world, probably more than me, to be honest. He spends every second he can with her. However, he can't take her to his mom's house because of the cats — so he leaves the dog with me when he visits his mom. I took Lucy for a walk, left her alone for a moment, and she ran off. And I couldn't find her anywhere. I spent 24 hours searching for her with no luck. Then I tried to find a new dog that looked the same. I found one that's a month younger and looks almost exactly the same as Lucy. So I set off on a 350 mile round trip to collect the dog. Now my son is back and I'm picking him up from school in a few hours. I'm going to take the new Lucy with me, but I don't know what to tell him. Should I try to pretend nothing happened and hope he doesn't figure it out? Or should I break his heart and admit that Lucy 1 ran away? At the very least, I should get some bonus points for the effort, right?

You know how it goes – you don’t want to tell someone something they don’t want to hear, so you S-T-R-E-T-C-H the truth, just a little. And is that OK? To more than half of us, yes, it is. In a survey, 55% of respondents said it is permissible to lie to spare someone’s feelings, while 45% said they’re OK with telling lies to protect a relationship. However, the poll of Canadians also found that 3 in 4 of people (74%) think every person should always be truthful, regardless of the consequences. Younger adults (ages 18-34) were found be most likely to have wished someone told them a “little white lie” at some point in their lives (63%). And when it comes to gender, fewer women (40%) don’t have a problem with fibbing in certain circumstances, than men (49%).

Drinking
coffee will help you get more steps in each day, but you’ll also
probably get less sleep, according to a new study by researchers at
University of California, San Francisco. It was found that on days
when test participants drank coffee, they took an average of 1,058
more steps than they did on non-coffee days. But on days when they
had a cup, sleep took a hit, with participants getting 36 fewer
minutes of shut-eye. The more coffee they drank, the more physical
activity and the less sleep they got.

What’s a sure-fire way to tell if someone is lying? Forget verbal or facial cues. And you definitely can’t rely on so-called “lie-detector” machines. According to an expert…there is one reliable method to catching a liar – attention to detail. Specifically, paying attention to how much detail the person is able to provide. Bruno Verschuere, Associate Professor of Forensic Psychology at the University of Amsterdam, says: “People who tell the truth can give a rich description because they actually experienced the event, whereas although liars can come up with details, this increases their risk of being caught.” His team has conducted studies to back this up.

Two inmates in a Virginia jail used primitively made tools to make a hole in the wall of their cell and escape — only to be found hours later at an IHOP restaurant. The Newport News Sheriff’s Office says the 2 men were discovered missing during a head count Monday night, and an investigation found they had used tools made from a toothbrush and a metal object to tunnel out. The escapees were taken into custody early Tuesday at an IHOP in the next town 7 miles away when other patrons called police. Sheriff Gabe Morgan remarked: “It reinforces what we always say, ‘See something, say something.’”
