They totally missed the subtext, didn't they?
I think so.
That's good, sj.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

I have a tooth ache.
I just called 20 different dentists in my area. The ONE that takes Medicare/Medicaid is not currently accepting new patients. The rest don't take Medicare or Medicaid.
I'm so screwed. This tooth is getting worse. I really need to be seen. Blech.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I was just flipping through our copy the other day, pondering which recipes would be good at a big gathering - ones that would be easily made ahead, easily kept warm or cold, etc. Let us know how you like the ones you try, Aillean.

Can you go to a Gentle Dentle type place? I don't know if they are any cheaper though, although they generally do a cheap intro cleaning/xray thing.

vw, that is so aggravating. I have had that trouble with my medical coverage in the past too. Can you call the number on the back of your card and see if they can find you a dentist in your area that is accepting new patients?

That's rough, vw. I hope you can work something out soon.

I've actually called the one place that accepts Medicare/Medicaid once a month since I moved. They always say, "Call back next month." I probably could have avoided this. It kinda pisses me off.
I just did a search on Mediare.gov. Hopefully this will come up with something.

28 phone calls later, and I found a place that will take MassHealth. Actually, called Gentle Dental, and they referred me to a place. Bless them.
I have to call back later, because they are on their lunch break. But, they should be able to get me in soon. Thank goodness.

Yay, vw! I am glad your persistence paid off.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Mathnet!
Square One also had a Weird Al video called "Patterns!" I have it on videotape somewhere.
I remember the episode of Mathnet where George had a bumper sticker that was all the way across the bumper. It said "I brake for people who brake for animals so I don't hit them."
George also went fishing off Nomanisan Island.
