THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
Would you be irritated by this? Yesterday, a lady I've never seen before shows up at our house and hands me homemade apple crisp. She said that she took apples off our apple trees in our yard to make it and thought that we should have the first taste of them. We use those apples for ourselves to do all kinds of things. I understand the gesture, however those are our apples that we take care of and we use them for things like applesauce, apple juice, apple pie etc. I'm assuming they took a ton of apples so that they could also make apple crisp or other stuff for themselves. I've got cameras all over the outside of our house and now I guess I have to put one down by the apple tree as well. If you want apples just ask and we probably would have said yes. Secondly, it looks good, but after everything that's happening in the world, I'm not sure I want to eat it! Any advice on this?
Signed
Apple Tree Guy

So,
when your destination is 2 floors up, do you wait for an elevator, or
do you simply take the stairs? If you picked door #2, your heart may
be healthier because of it? Not only that, stair-climbing might be
even better for you than walking thousands of steps a day. Tulane
University researchers found that taking at least 50 steps up stairs
each day could slash your risk of heart disease — including
coronary artery disease or stroke — by 20%. And it can be better
for you than pounding the pavement with your step counter, because
stair-climbing requires the use of more muscles, more balance, and
more motor skills, according to the researchers, plus “a lot of
activity from your cardiovascular system, and that is why people
often find themselves out of breath whilst climbing stairs.”

If
reports are to be believed, you may one day soon be driving an Apple
iCar. Although still a top-secret initiative, those in the know say
the prototype electric vehicle being developed by the tech company
will obviously be running on Apple’s iOS. It will be autonomous
(self-driving), and more of a cruiser-type than a performance
vehicle. Naturally, you’d be able to start your iCar via your
iPhone, using Apple’s Carplay system. And it has supposedly also
leaked that the vehicle will likely be within the same price range as
the Tesla Model X — around US$100,000.

Leonardo DiCaprio’s character in “Titanic” didn’t have much to his name when he got on the ship, but ‘Jack Dawson’s’ outfit is now expected to sell for way over 6 figures. The costume Leo wore in James Cameron’s classic is going up for auction next month, with the winning bid predicted to fall somewhere between $115,000-$230,000. DiCaprio spent most of the film dressed in the outfit, consisting of corduroy pants, overalls, a button-down long-sleeve shirt and a vest. The garments include custom labels reading “MR: LEONARDO DICAPRIO” and “DATE: AUGUST ’96.” Other items of note at the November auction in London include a light-up ‘C-3PO’ head from “Star Wars: A New Hope”, expected to go for $1.15 million.
Peppa Pig set the internet ablaze last week, when it was announced that Katy Perry will appear on the show’s anniversary special. Now, her partner Orlando Bloom is joining the party. “The Pirates of the Caribbean” actor will make his debut on the children’s show for its 20th anniversary special, “The Peppa Pig Wedding Party Special”, playing ‘Mr. Raccoon’, a jeweler who helps ‘Mr. Bull’ and ‘Ms. Cow’ prepare for their nuptials. Perry will voice ‘Ms. Leopard’, who also helps the community prep for the wedding.

They might be interested in this at the recently-announced Nerf theme park in Brazil: A German engineer has custom-built a toy minigun capable of firing off 684 Nerf darts in one minute — more than 11 per second. Thomas Busch’s MOAB, or “Mother of All Blasters”, broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest motorized foam dart gun fire rate. The darts fly at a speed of 45 mph (72kph), approximately the same as a standard Nerf gun, but according to the designer, the high rate of fire adds a little extra sting. Quote: “It does hurt a bit”.
