TIDBITS® RESEARCHES

ADVERTISING SLOGANSby Kathy Wolfe

All companies know the importance of advertising and product recognition. This week, Tidbits investigates some clever slogans that have caught our attention over the years. • Who hasn’t sung along to the “Rice-A-Roni, the

San Francisco Treat” jingle? The first commercial featuring the clang of a cable car aired in 1959, launching the success of the small Golden Grain Macaroni Company. The product was based on the family recipe of the founders, the Domenico’s. There were not many packaged side dishes available in the late 1950s and Rice-A-Roni was an immediate hit. It became so successful that when Golden Grain sold out to the Quaker Oats Company in 1986, the price tag was $275 million.

• The Clairol company was started up in 1931 by two Americans who had been traveling in France and observed hair-coloring preparations there. Sold strictly to salons for 25 years, in 1956, an at-home product was introduced with its slogan “Does she or doesn’t she? Only her hairdresser knows for sure.” Within 6 years, 70% of American women were coloring their hair. The company has had several catchy phrases over the years, including 1965’s “The closer he gets, the better you look” and the 1960s slogan, “Is it true blondes have more fun?”

Publisher's Corner by Sean Athey

Howdy All!Thanks for taking a little time to en-

joy the latest edition of Tidbits of the Lake Area. This issue marks the be-ginning of Volume 4 of the most loved

free weekly publication in Northeast South Dakota and West Central Minnesota... and that is not us saying it, it's YOU, our readers!

Did you hear that sound?... the whoosh of another summer flying by? I wish I had some cool stories about all the fun things we did this summer, but right now, for Lynette and I, we are nose to the grindstone... working hard to bring our fun and interesting publication to you each week. We are still working toward the goals we have for the next volume of

Tidbits... and many more to come!

Right now Lynette is in the middle of making a batch of salsa from the backyard gar-den... smells pretty good! I better wrap this up and go give her a hand. We hope all of our gardening friends are reaping the benefit of the fruits (and vegetables) of their labor.

I'll have a few more things to share in upcoming issues, so keep picking up YOUR Tidbits each week, and be sure to stop us when we are out bringing the paper to the 40+ towns we go to every week and ask us any ques-tions you may have about Tidbits.

Stay Safe and Have a Great Week!!!

Thought for the Day“This is the final test of a gentleman: his respect for

those who can be of no possible service to him.” — William Lyon Phelps

• “Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is” is one of the most recognizable ad slogans of all time. The effervescent antacid Alka-Seltzer made its debut in 1931 as a remedy for aches, pains, inflammation, fever, heartburn, indigestion, and a number of other maladies. The character “Speedy” (signifying speedy relief) was introduced in 1951 and was used until the mid-1960s. The company had another successful catchphrase in 1971 when a man suffering from severe indigestion said, “Try it, you’ll like it,” followed in 1972 with “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.” Alka-Seltzer’s competition Rolaids countered with “How do you spell relief?”

• Credit card companies are well-known for reminding us how much we need them. In 1975, American Express introduced its “Don’t leave home without it” campaign, featuring Oscar-Award-winning actor Karl Malden. Various celebrities asked TV viewers, “Do you know me?” in another American Express ad. In 2004, the company updated its slogan to “My life. My card.” Visa’s catchphrase was, “It’s everywhere

you want to be,” initiated in 1985. (Visa spends about $500 million each year on advertising around the world!) MasterCard was not to be left out, and in 1997 originated, “There are some things money can’t buy. For everything else, there’s MasterCard.” Capital One followed up with, “What’s in your wallet?”

• What’s the best part of waking up? According to Folgers, it’s their coffee in your cup! The company, in business since 1850, featured the Swedish neighbor Mrs. Olson in their ads from 1965 to 1986, who told us that Folgers was “mountain grown, the richest kind of coffee.” Another coffee vendor, Maxwell House, has one of the longest-used slogans, “Good to the Last Drop,” created in 1917.

• Founded in 1922 by a retired farmer turned

insurance salesman, State Farm is currently #41 on the Fortune 500 list of largest companies. They process almost 35,000 claims per day. Pop star Barry Manilow composed their “Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there” jingle in 1971.

• Barry Manilow also composed the familiar “I am stuck on Band-aids, cuz Band-Aid’s stuck on me” jingle in the mid-1970s. Earle Dickson, the inventor of the Band-Aid in 1920, came up with the idea when his wife Josephine regularly injured herself while performing housekeeping and cooking tasks. Dickson, who worked for Johnson & Johnson, was looking for an easier way to bandage up her wounds than cotton and wrapping. Sales were just $3,000 that first year, but in 1961, the year of Dickson’s death, sales of Band-Aids were $30,000,000.

The Vegetarian GrillFootball season is upon us, and

when it comes to tailgates and game-watching parties, people tend to think of hamburgers, steaks, brats and hot dogs for grill entrees. Instead, move the meat over and make room for vegetables. Why not try zucchini, egg-plant, asparagus, bell pep-pers or portabella mush-rooms? Grilling vegeta-bles caramelizes them and brings out a sweetness not typically found in other cooking preparations.

Even if you’re not a sports fan, grilling offers an opportunity to prepare vegetables in a quick and different way. Many peo-ple think everything tastes better on the grill, which also can hold true for veg-etables. Some people don’t like eggplant, zucchini or asparagus — until they try it grilled! Taste is not the only benefit. Vegetables cook so quickly on the grill that they retain much of their vitamin and nutrient content.

To prepare vegetables, have the grill warm, but not as hot as you would for grilling meat. Lightly brush the vegetables with olive oil and put them directly on the grill, turning until tender. Try larger hunks, like half a green pepper, large slices of squash or portabella mushroom caps, which are large enough to sit on the grates without falling through. A grill bas-ket, aluminum foil pan or kabobs also can be used.

If you prefer steamed veggies, wrap them in aluminum foil with a little olive oil and your favorite marinade or spices. Seal and place on grill, turn-

ing occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes or until veggies are tender.

Experiment with different spices, marinades and sauces when prepar-ing vegetables, and don’t be afraid to try various flavors. Store-bought mixes and marinades may have extra sodium, sugar and calories compared to a specialized homemade version. Balsamic vinegar or other flavored vinegars are great for drizzling over grilled vegetables or using in a mari-nade. As always, practice safe grilling techniques and food safety.

The next time you plan to fire up the grill, remember to invite some vegeta-bles to the party.

GRILLED VEGETABLE DIPMake this Middle Eastern-flavored

dip several hours or up to a day in advance. 2 pounds medium-size egg plants 2 large red bell peppers, cut in half, ribs and seed pod removed 1 large red onion, peeled and cut in half 1 medium jalapeno pepper 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 large head of garlic, top cut to expose cloves 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1/2 cup plain whole yogurt

1 teaspoon crumbled dried mint 1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses or a drizzle of honey, optional 1 tablespoon roughly chopped mint, for garnish 1 tablespoon roughly chopped parsley, for garnish

1. Place eggplant, bell pepper, onion and jalapeno pepper on a sheet pan. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt on the vegeta-bles. Toss to coat. Wrap the head of garlic in foil.

2. Put whole eggplants, bell pep-per and onion halves, the whole jala-peno and the foil-wrapped head of garlic on a barbecue grate over hot coals. Turning the vegetables frequent-ly, cook until the skin is completely blackened and charred and the vegeta-bles begin to soften and collapse, about 10 minutes. The garlic should be soft when pressed. Set aside to cool.

3. Cut eggplants in quarters top to bottom; carefully separate the flesh from skin with a spoon or paring knife. Discard charred skin. Chop the rest of the vegetables roughly with a large knife or in a food processor, and put it in a fine-meshed sieve to drain excess liquid.

4. Transfer vegetable mixture to a mixing bowl. Press cloves to remove the softened garlic and add to mixing bowl. Add remaining tablespoon of salt, lemon juice, olive oil, yogurt and dried mint. Mix well, and set aside to rest for a few minutes. Check season-ing and adjust.

5. Put mixture in a low serving bowl. Drizzle with pomegranate molasses, if using, and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with chopped mint and parsley.

• In 1973, as the feminist movement was gaining momentum, a young 23-year-old copywriter named Ilon Specht came up with the phrase “Because I’m worth it” for the L’Oreal cosmetics company. Still in use today, it’s recognized by 80% of women.

• The first Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise opened in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1952. Harlan Sanders had been selling chicken since the Great Depression when he peddled it from a Kentucky roadside restaurant. The “finger lickin’ good” slogan was initiated in 1956, and a second slogan “We fix Sunday dinner seven nights a week” was added in 1957. In 2011, KFC, wanting to focus on its shift to a healthier menu, made a switch to “Nobody does chicken like KFC” and “So good.” KFC is the second largest restaurant chain in the world, with close to 19,000 outlets in 118 countries, with China leading the pack with nearly 4,600 locations.

• Where did our favorite candy M&Ms get its name? The little chocolates with a candy shell were introduced by the Mars Company in 1941 as a treat that allowed soldiers to carry chocolate without it melting. The two “M”s stand for Forrest Mars, son of the Mars founder, and Bruce Murrie, who was the son of the Hershey Chocolate president, who owned a 20% share in the product. M&Ms famous “melts in your mouth, not in your hand” slogan was trademarked in 1954.

• After decades of using “It takes a licking and keeps on ticking” to describe the durability of their watches, Timex replaced the phrase with one they felt updated their image. The 1950s phrase was updated in 2003 to “Timex. Life is ticking.”

• Frito-Lay challenged our self-control when they released their advertising slogan for Lay’s potato chips of “Betcha can’t eat just one” in 1963. They were the first snack food manufacturer to release television commercials, using actor Bert Lahr of The Wizard of Oz fame as their spokesman. Herman Lay started up the company in 1932 selling potato chips out of the trunk of his car. He merged his venture with the Frito Company in 1961.

• The name of Paul Marcarelli is probably not familiar, but it’s almost certain that his face is. Paul was the actor who traveled the country for Verizon Wireless beginning in 2002 asking, “Can you hear me now?” The campaign was a huge success because most people are familiar with having to move to a place with better cell phone reception. The first year Verizon ran the ad, their sales improved by 10%, and numbers grew by another 15% the following year. Today, Verizon’s slogan is “Never settle.”

NOTEWORTHY INVENTORS:

INVENTIONS OF THE ‘70sThe 1970s were a time of great innovation in many areas. Take a look at a few ground-breaking inventions introduced during that decade. • In 1974, a patent was granted to Dr. Raymond

Damadian for an “Apparatus and Method for Detecting Cancer in Tissue,” the world’s first MRI machine. Dr. Damadian completed construction of the first whole-body scanner three years later. MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and is a means of looking inside the body without surgery or X-rays. The scanner uses magnetism and radio waves to take internal pictures. Dr. Damadian discovered that different types of tissue emit signals of varying lengths, and that cancerous tissue’s signals last much longer than non-cancerous.

• The food processor came to North America in 1973, when American inventor Carl Sonthemier improved on the 1971 French machine, the Le Magi-Max. This new appliance hit U.S. shelves using the name Cuisinart.

• The 1970s were an exciting time in the electronics world. The floppy disk was invented in 1970,

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Here in Florida, we’re urged to have a hurricane preparedness plan between June and November, which is traditionally hurricane season. But often emergency officials forget about pets. Can you remind read-ers to include their pets in any disaster planning? Things can happen really fast, and pets are often forgotten and put at risk. -- Larry in Deerfield Beach, Florida

DEAR LARRY: Absolutely! We’ve seen in past natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina that our pets can suffer greatly if no plan is in place for them. Dogs and cats cannot fend for themselves after a disaster.

Different regions of the country can experience different issues, too. For example, the Northeast had one of its coldest, snowiest winters in almost two centuries this year. Roofs collapsed, people had trouble heating their homes and many seniors, often with pets, were stuck indoors for days on end. It was a different kind of disaster, but no less stressful for those who were displaced or suffered health issues.

can Red Cross (www.redcross.org/prepare/location/home-family/pets), Ready.gov (www.ready.gov/caring-animals) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov/features/petsanddisasters/) all have detailed infor-mation to help you prepare pets in case you have to quickly evacuate your home.

Guidelines include but aren’t limited to: making sure your pets’ vaccinations are up to date and that they wear ID tags, license and ideally are microchipped; having a pet carrier for each pet; adding pet supplies, medications and extra leashes and collars to your disaster kit; and keeping a copy of all pet records with your critical family documents.

PICKS OF THE WEEKThe Age of Adaline (PG-13) —

Adaline Bowman (Blake Lively) survives a strange car accident while driving one night in 1938. A Very Authoritative Narrator tells us that due to some science-magic whatever, Adaline stopped aging, preserving her elegant blond 29-year-old form for all time. Tragic, I know.

After some years, Addy’s unaging beauty draws suspicion, so she chang-es identities every decade to keep her immortality a secret — she’s kinda selfish. This keeps her from getting too close to anyone, or falling in love, until she falls in love with a guy whose father (Harrison Ford) recognizes her as the lost love of his youth.

The film goes for that dreamy, time-less, starlit moody look, and achieves it across different time periods. It all looks good, but the story feels under-cooked. Things limp along at times, and the ending feels a little off-kilter.

Cyber-Seniors (PG) — How do you get a senior citizen from knowing nothing about the computers to deftly hustling Facebook friends to check out their latest Youtube video? Very patiently. That’s one lesson in this charming documentary about a group of retirees paired with teen volunteers who teach them how to use the Inter-net. When one senior posts her own cooking video to YouTube, it starts a contest among the old folks to see who can get the most “hits” online.

While at first, the cluelessness of the old folks is played for laughs, the real focus of the story comes from the new connections made and possibili-ties opened up. It’s not meant to be an instructional film, but it does teach us a lot about the generational gap: It sure is deep, but not too wide to cross.

Beyond the Mask (PG) — An English mercenary, Will (Andrew Cheney), working for the British East India company, gets backstabbed by

his employer and reinvents himself as a masked vigilante, seeking revenge against his enemies who have relo-cated to the American colonies just before the revolution. He teams up with an annoying Benjamin Franklin, who spouts popular Benjamin Frank-lin sayings because that’s how he talk-ed, I guess. Will falls in love with a nice lady (Kara Kilmer) and starts to learn that the key to redemption isn’t vengeance, but good faith and Chris-tianity. He still gets his vengeance, though.

American Heist (R) — Frankie (Adrien Brody) served time for a crime that he and his younger brother, James (Hayden Christensen), messed up. A free man again, Frankie gets together with his old robbery pals (Tory Kittles and rapper Akon) and pulls James in as a driver on their next job. James is trying to make a real living and patch things up with his girl (Jordana Brew-ster), but Frankie reels him in with guilt, and James botches yet another robbery. The two brothers are then forced to help with an even bigger, heist-ier heist. Is this the One Last Job that leads to a better life? Getting the answer might not be as exciting as you think.

Sugar Alcohols Aren’t Sugars or Alcohol

DEAR DR. ROACH: I recently was diagnosed as being prediabetic and told to watch my sugar intake. So I now read the nutrition facts on packages. However, I am confused about the listed sugars. Sometimes the label includes both “sugar” and “sugar alcohols.” For instance, a package can read “sugars 1 g” and “sugar alcohols 11 g.” Would my sugar intake be 1 g or 12 g? What is the difference, and what should I avoid/limit? — B.D.

ANSWER: First, congratulations on reading labels. There is a lot of good information to be found that can help you decide whether something is a healthy food for you. That being said, sugar alcohols are confusing.

Sugar alcohols have nothing to do with the type of alcohol in beer, wine or spirits, and they aren’t sugars either. A sugar alcohol, such as sorbitol or xylitol, is an incompletely absorbed carbohydrate. Since they are incom-pletely absorbed, you get only some of the calories, and your blood sugar goes up less than if you had had the same amount of sweetness with regular sugar. A rough but reasonable rule of thumb is to count about half the grams of sugar alcohol as sugar, for the pur-poses of counting sugar grams. So in your example, it would be about 6.5 grams of sugar.

You might wonder what happens to the unabsorbed sugar alcohol. It con-tinues through your GI tract and acts as a laxative. Some people are very sensitive and will have diarrhea with

just a little sugar alcohol; others toler-ate more.

***DEAR DR. ROACH: I have been

suffering for many years from mis-erable episodes of perineal pain related to my benign, enlarged pros-tate. My urologist’s recommenda-tion of NSAIDs and sitz baths has afforded very limited relief. I would appreciate any suggestions you have to offer. — J.S.K.

ANSWER: I see a lot of people with benign enlargement of the prostate, and the most common symptoms are inability to empty the bladder easily and having to urinate frequently. Per-sistent pain would make me concerned that the prostate enlargement is not the cause, or not the only cause, of the pain. I would think carefully about a bladder stone, chronic inflammation of the prostate and interstitial cystitis as a short list.

Chronic pelvic pain is a condition much more frequently encountered in women, and there are special-ists in evaluating just that complex problem. Men can get chronic pel-vic pain too, and I am concerned that it often is assumed to be due to the prostate, when there are many other possibilities. It’s time for you to be re-evaluated.

The booklet on the prostate gland discusses treatments for enlargement as well as cancer. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Roach — No. 1001W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Can-ada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery.

***Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable

to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to [email protected]. To view and order health pamphlets, visit www.rbmamall.com, or write to Good Health, 628 Virginia Drive Orlando, FL 32803.

an invention that revolutionized the storage of computer data. In 1973, the first word processor that used floppy disks for storage was introduced by Vydec, a media system capable of holding 80 to 100 pages of text. Early printers included the LA30 dot matrix printer and the daisy-wheel printer, named such because of its resemblance to the flower. Both were introduced in 1970 and were able to print 30 characters per second. IBM debuted its Model 4640 ink-jet printer in 1976, followed up by its 3800 laser printer, able to print 20,000 lines (215 pages) per minute in 1979.

• We’ve been “flicking our BIC” since 1973 when BIC introduced its disposable lighter with an adjustable flame. The BIC lighter could provide 3,000 lights before wearing out. Today, BIC produces about 6 million lighters daily worldwide. There have been more than 30 billion lighters sold in 160 countries. Entertainment Weekly has named the “Flick Your BIC” advertising campaign as one of the 50 best campaigns of all time.

• In 1974, two Italian doctors, father and son Arpad and Giorgio Fischer, were responsible for the invention of a blunt, hollow surgical instrument called a cannula that enabled the creation of tunnels between major blood vessels of the body. Adding a suction device known as an aspirator, the pair were able to suck out body fat, creating the cosmetic surgery operation known as liposuction.

• Are you familiar with the term “timeshifting”? It’s the word used to refer to recording a television program to play back at a more convenient time, a process facilitated by the invention of the VCR in 1971. The first VCR for home use was the Phillips Model 1500, introduced in 1972. It was an expensive item and for many years, most consumers chose to rent rather than purchase this pricey technology.

• In 1979, Sony introduced an item that changed the way people listened to music. Sony’s co-founder Masaru Ibuka loved opera music and wanted to listen to it while traveling by air. He approached a company engineer with his idea of a portable audio cassette player. The engineer designed it, adding lightweight headphones and the Walkman was born! By 1995, sales of Walkman units had reached 150 million. Improvements over the years have resulted in 300 different Walkman models produced to date.

MORE AD SLOGANS • “Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you

don’t” was the jingle originated in the 1970s by Peter Paul to advertise its chocolate and coconut candy bars Mounds and Almond Joy. The original slogan of Mounds, a confection created in 1920, was “indescribably delicious.” It was the result of a contest that challenged entrants to come up with the best two words to sell a candy. The winner took home $10. Almond Joy (for when you feel like a nut!) came along in 1946.

• How long have we been in good hands with Allstate? The company was founded in 1931 as part of Sears, Roebuck, & Company, but the familiar slogan didn’t come along until 1956. A company sales executive came up with the idea based on his comforting words to his wife when a doctor was

caring for their child. It’s now ranked as one of the most recognizable slogans in America.

• Nothing outlasts the Energizer. It keeps going, and going…” The pink bunny in the sunglasses and sandals beating on his bass drum has proven the effectiveness of this slogan time and time again. Appearing in commercials since 1989, the term “Energizer Bunny” has become part of our vocabulary referring to anything or anyone that continues endlessly.

• Plenty of exhausted young mothers have uttered the phrase, “Calgon, take me away” since that catchphrase was introduced in the 1970s. A quiet, relaxing bath in Calgon bath products was the solution to the stress of everyday life. The product takes its name from “calcium gone,” referring to its ability to prevent the formation of unwanted elements in the water.

• In 1910, 18-year-old J.C. Hall had two shoeboxes

of picture postcards to his name and nothing else. He peddled them on the streets of Kansas City, Missouri, then bought more, and soon had a good little business. His brother joined him and they became the Hall Brothers Company. By 1915, they were offering high-quality valentines and Christmas cards. In 1917, they started printing their own gift wrap. Knowing that goldsmiths used the word “hallmark” to denote a mark of quality, in 1928, the Hall brothers began printing the word Hallmark on the back of every card. The year 1944 brought the advertising phrase that most folks are familiar with – “When you care enough to send the very best.” The NBC network approached the company in 1951 about sponsoring a premiere television production and the Hallmark Hall of Fame program began. Over the years, the productions have garnered 80 Emmy Awards.

• One of the longest-running, most familiar ad slogans is Campbell’s “Mmm, mmm, good!”, which has been in use since 1935. Fruit merchant Joseph Campbell and icebox manufacturer Abraham Anderson teamed up in Camden, New Jersey, in 1869 to produce canned vegetables and jellies. The invention of condensed soup in 1897 by the nephew of the company’s general manager cemented Campbell’s place in history. The company began using the image of the round-faced Campbell kids in 1904 on the side of trolley cars.

BULLDOGS

Puzzle Answers

• It’s not known who made the following sage observation: “I can pic-ture a world without war,

a world without hate. And I can picture us attack-ing that world, because they’d never expect it.”

• Dom Perignon -- he of champagne fame -- was a Benedictine monk.

• Now that school is back in session, those who had the summer off might be suffering from dysa-nia -- finding it difficult to get out of bed in the morning. Some of us, of course, experience dysa-nia year-round.

• If you’re one of those parents who has to be careful walking around the house barefoot, you

by Samantha Weaver

probably will not be surprised to learn that the LEGO company makes more than 3,500 different pieces in more than 60 colors.

• Weddings in Sweden are not for the jealous type. In that country, tradition states that if the bride leaves the room, all the men line up to kiss her. What’s good for the goose is good for the gan-der, though -- if the groom leaves, all the women are supposed to get in line to demonstrate their affection. I imagine very few exes are invited to Swedish weddings.

• British writer Lewis Carroll -- best known for his book “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” -- invented the idea of the dust jacket for books.

• Those who study such things say that a par-

akeet would rather look at itself than at another parakeet. In a test, the birds were placed in cages side-by-side, then one was removed and a mirror put in its place. The parakeet that was left spent quadruple the time looking at its reflection as it did looking at its companion.

• Line junk draw-ers in the kitchen or bathroom with inexpensive sheets of corkboard. Things

don’t slide around as much, and you can even use pushpins or finishing nails lightly insert-

ed into the cork to make custom compar tments in the drawers so things l ike pens don’t roll around.

• “If your eye-glass screws tend to come loose, j u s t unsc rew, brush clear nail polish over the threads and re-screw tightly. As the polish dries

(in seconds), it will form a tighter bond.” -- I.D. in Oregon

• Shaving cream can be used as a spot cleaner for most carpets. Simply dab a bit of the cream into the stained area, scrape off any excess and wipe away dirt with a clean, damp washcloth.

• Ways to remove gum from your child’s hair: laundry pretreatment rubbed in with the fingers; ice cubes to harden the gum so that it can be picked out in chunks; and good, old-fashioned peanut butter and a comb.

• This one is an oldie, but a preschool goodie, from L.R. in Washington: “Use wide rubber bands around a drinking glass for chil-dren. It will provide a little non-slip protection, especially if the glass is filled with a cold drink. The rubber band is reusable, and you can write the child’s name on the band with a ballpoint pen in order to identify his or her cup!”
