I can tell you one very com-

delay of first heart attack. This
information comes from another
study reported in the Canadian
Medical Association Journal. It
says that getting a flu shot early
in the season brings a 19 percent
reduction in the occurrence of
acute myocardial infarction.
Shots received after the middle of
November had a smaller reduc-
tion, but a reduction just the
same. The pneumonia shot didn’t
do a thing.
Consumer Reports’ health
magazine also is getting into the
act with a poll about why people
don’t want a flu shot. One big
reason cited is that last year’s flu
season was a big nothing, espe-
cially because it hit younger peo-
ple harder. What we need to
remember, however, is that in a
normal flu year, 90 percent of the
deaths from flu are in the 65-and-
older age group. If that statistic
doesn’t motivate you to get a
shot, I don’t know what will.
Consider this, too: According
to Consumer Reports, if you have
to go to the emergency room with
a twisted ankle, there’s a 50 per-
cent chance that your nurses
won’t have had a flu shot.

Give the Gift of Quality Time with Clocks & More
By Robin Martinez©
Before you turn around
twice, the holidays will be past
and the door will close on
another year. With today’s hur-
ried pace and the rush of the hol-
idays, most people would enjoy
the gift of time — more hours in
the day, more time in the month
to spend with family and
friends, a slower pace to enjoy
the everyday moments that
reflect a life well-lived. And
though we cannot actually give
the gift of more time, we can
give the gift of a beautiful
means of marking the passing of
time.
Clocks & More carries the
largest selection of high-quality
