YOUR MONTHLY NEED-TO-KNOWS ANDERSON DENTAL CARE HOLIDAY HOURS: Our office will be closed on July 3 and 4 in observance of Independence Day. We will reopen on our next regularly scheduled business day, Monday, July 8. WHY IS THERE SO MUCH AIR INSIDE POTATO CHIP BAGS? We often complain that our bag of chips feels half empty with all the air in it, but there’s a reason why! All that air isn’t air at all, but nitrogen gas to help preserve the chips. Think of it as a necessary evil to keep your snack flavorful and crisp. GEORGE FOREMAN NAMED HIS SONS WHAT ? Did you know the former boxer George Foreman named all five of his son George Edward Foreman? If you don’t believe us, look it up! The boxer explained, “If you’re going to get hit as many times as I’ve been hit by Mohammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Evander Holyfield — you’re not going to remember many names.” LIONS ROAMED EUROPE? Yes, lions were once native to many European countries as recent as the Bronze Age. Sadly, humans hunted those lions to the point of extinction, so you won’t be seeing any roaming the streets of France any time soon. HOSTING THE ULTIMATE OUTDOOR MOVIE NIGHT MOONLIT MOVIE MAGIC Whether it’s blocking pucks during a street hockey game or checkmating chess hustlers at the park, traditionally indoor activities take on an entirely new feel and flavor when taken outside. While a rare sight these days, movie- goers worldwide used to enjoy cinema from the comfort of their cars at drive-in theaters. These made a brief resurgence during the pandemic, but now that movies are rolling in theaters again, the fad has begun to die off. These days, if you want to watch a movie, it seems like you are limited to three options: Watching it at the theater, on your TV, or on your phone or tablet. Now, I think we can all agree that watching a movie outside on your phone does not make for a great cinematic experience. Debtrette, a TikTok influencer and mom, has a suggestion. She put a spin on an old classic — family movie night — by holding it in her backyard with all the conveniences you would expect at a movie theater — like an air mattress, pillows, and blankets! If you are looking for a fun way to spruce up a traditional movie night, what better way than to bring it outside under the stars? Here are some necessities to make your moonlight movie night truly magical:
• • • • • • •
A portable projector screen, like a sheet on a clothesline
Portable movie projector
Candy, popcorn, and beverages Some outdoor seating and cushions
Lamps, lanterns, or candles
Warm blankets
The perfect movie to bring it all together
You can find screens and projectors to fit any budget, and your movie selection will depend on the crowd. Just make it fun: Lie back on the grass and watch “Antz” or lounge in the pool while watching “Jaws”! The key is to make the experience unforgettable, and all who share in it will be thankful for your effort to make it all possible.
