Sorry, Hawkeye; M*A*S*H gets bowled over

Sorry, Hawkeye
Who knew Abe Vigoda was still alive? A record 106.5 million people watched the New Orleans Saints upset the Indianapolis Colts in the Super Bowl, surpassing the nearly 106 million who watched the final episode of “M-A-S-H” in 1983.
For those keeping score, that works out to 6.5 million interested in the game and 100 million waiting to watch Betty White get tackled in a mud puddle.
The tipping point: With high school sweetheart balls and proms approaching, it might be a good idea to go over restaurant tipping protocol with teens so they don't stiff the wait staff at Outback.
But here's Rule No. 1: Unless the food is wrapped in paper decorated with golden arches, you should tip.
Going for the gold: Gold Bar, which got its start as a prospectors' camp, marks its centennial this year with a series of celebrations, including Gold Dust Days in July. Mayor Joe Beavers says the plan is to “party like it's 1910."
So, if you're going to Gold Bar, remember:
You can ride your mule to a tavern, but you can't count it as your designated driver.
Women's bustles are optional but encouraged.
And don't forget to patronize these sponsors: Munson's Paw-Paw Pills and Dr. Case's Carbolate of Tar Inhalants.
