Show The Salt Lake Tribune CALENDAR Friday, January 29, 1999 Compiled by Lori Buttars Hot Act: Thelatest Motown Don’t Blame IQ ForShortage OfSocial Skills Dear Ann: I'm writing about your response to “Perplexed Grandmother,” who said she drove for hours with her “brilliant” granddaughter and there was zero communication. I have a brother whois also brilliant, with a Ph.D.in applied mathematics. As a child, he product to hit the charts is 98 Degrees, an Ohio-based quartet whose four-part harmonies send the fans swooning. The troupe will makeits way to Utah April 11 for a concert at Kingsbury Hall. Tickets go on sale Saturday at the Kingsbury Hall box office andall ArtTix outlets. e group features Justin Jeffre, Jeff Timmons and a set of brothers, Nick and Drew La- chey. Their breakthrough hitis “Invisbile Man,” but basketball fans might rememberthat they performed the national anthem peat 5 of the 1998 NBAFin- al Knight Moves: Due to a changein the routing of Gladys Knight's anniversary tour, the concert scheduled for tonight has been rescheduled to March solved complicated mathematical 9. All oe will be honored at problemsin his sleep, but he had zero communication skills and that tim Thosewho cannot attend that was considered “stuck-up.” As a grown man, heis still incapable evening should inquire about a refund at the Smith's Tix outlet or the Dee Events Center box office (wherever tickets were purchased). Tickets are still available for $18.50 and $25.50. of small talk, and his communication skills haven't improved. The “genius” is on his third wife and hasvery little to do with his siblings or parents. People seldom measure upto his expectations, so he writes them off. I have a different theory on why brilliant people often have trouble establishing and maintain- ing relationships. Maybe their heads are so crowded with information, there is no room to think about family and friends. — Washington, D.C. Dear D.C.: Yourtheory that brilliant people are incapable of forging close relationshipsis flawed. Normal people can have this problem, too. Keep reading: From Lebanon,N.J.: Your advice to “Perplexed Grandmother,” who could barely get a word out of her brilliant granddaughter on a three-hourcartrip, missed the mark. My overeducated ex- husband was the same way. He has a Ph.D. in engineering from anIvy League school and was a permanent fixture on the Dean’s List. We would drive for hours, and all I would get was a gruntin response to any question or comment. Often, to get his attention, I would say, “Planet Earth calling Johnny. Comein for a landing.” Tell Grandmanot to be offended. Her“brilliant” granddaughter may be book smart, but she needs to brush up onherpeopleskills if she wants to makeit in this competitive world, Bowie, Md.: I disagree with your advice to “Perplexed Grandmother,” who couldn't make conversation with her granddaughter. Could it be that the young woman felt her grandmother was bombarding her nonstop with intrusive andirritating questions? I Sabbath Reschedules: TheBlack Sabbath concert postponed from Jan. 14 has beenre- scheduled for Feb. 23at the Delta Center. Tickets previously purchasedwill be honored that evening.

A dear friend of mine says I'm a clam, THEATER while I consider a conversation with her a cross-examination. St. Catharines, Ontario:I wasinterested in the letter about the grandmother who was critical of her granddaughter because she couldn't get a conversation going during a long car ride. That problem started long ago. I know be- cause I have the samesituation with my granddaughter. I spoke to “Mary's” mother about this, and she said, “Don't feel bad. That's the way it is with all young people today.” Is she right? DearSt. Catharines: No,s is not right. The ei oeis not asdifficult to bridge today as it once was. Many “grannies” are nowvery much with it, The prob- lem with some granny-teen connectionsis that the closeness was not established at an early age.
