Perhaps they just lost a spouse, or went through a traumatic health scare. Perhaps, as they’ve grown older, they’ve simply become lonely. Then someone calls bearing good news.
Over 50 elderly Americans answered the phone to such news a couple years ago, told by callers based in Broward that they had won a lottery prize of millions of dollars.
Dear Amy: My son and his fiance “James” are getting married this fall.
When my son first mentioned that they were in the planning stages, I told him that his father and I will be on a cruise from Oct. 17 to Oct. 29. At that point the couple had not yet chosen a date.

Clemson has turned up the heat on its lawsuit against the Atlantic Coast Conference — litigation that also affects Florida State’s future in the ACC.
The Tigers are now seeking “punitive damages to Clemson for the ACC’s willful and malicious conduct,” including “slander of title.” That request is part of an amended complaint filed last month in Pickens County, South Carolina, but made public Thursday.
The Tigers, like FSU, are involved in dueling lawsuits with the ACC playing out in their respective home states plus North Carolina (where the conference is headquartered).
