Did you know that more than 30% of the population over 65 have no teeth?
1-800-DENTIST told me so.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wonder if (or how much) the percentage of people (in the US, I mean) with dentures is going down, thanks to the floridated water and better dental health in general. Both of my grandfathers had full dentures from the time I can remember them, which would make them like late 50s, and I don't think I know anyone that age with them now.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
It was the easy view -- which is good 'cause it went bye bye on my TIVO before I watched it.

It was a repeat of Wednesday, unless I've missed more than I thought.
I was going to say that Jamaica was about half a generation behind in dental health care, but I think we're catching up.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mile High has been watched but I am not sure how happy it made me. I need to go look at the Web site. t time passes Damn. There's not a lot there that makes me happy. Grrr. And I liked Will better as a blonde. Suited the character.

huh. My Notepad is like a way back machine.
Anyway, Gina sleeps with a guy against her desires in this one, to keep her cover. And then she weeps and asks Trudy to burn the dress she'd been wearing. I'm not wanting to imply that sleeping with guys for pragmatic reasons is fun, but it seems to be so often portrayed as terribly devastating for a woman, and never seems to come up (or just be part of getting too deep into cover) for the guys. Is that dramatic license, an extension of the whole fate worse than death thing?I think it is dramatic license taken to an extreme. The situations will obviously be different each time but I don't think it is exceptionally traumatic so long as it is consensual, even if you are consensing for reasons other than actually wanting to have sex. She could have blown her cover, she chose not to. But she made the choice.
getting raves on the makeup boards, especially from people with combo skin.Plei, where are these mythical makeup boards?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
This was a while ago but
FTR, Urth Caffe rocks for people watching, but that nagging feeling that you should know the very able-looking guys who parked their Rolls in the handicapped spot can get distracting.
Edited to fix my second Bruce/Brett Ratner error today.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
GA continues to break me.
The two hour nap yesterday led to sleeping from 11:30 to 5:30. I feel good though - stretched some, saluted the sun - and now, yummy malt-o-meal.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You have sun, msbelle? It's all rainy and crappy where I am.
