Kid dentistry has changed a lot since my day. I'm not fully sure my dentist believed in anesthesia.
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

Now tagless for your comfort.
I had my molars capped before I was five. I had a lot of problems even back then. Owen's going in to get a filling done in November and he'll get gas.
Dentistry is one of the most fast moving fields in regards to tech--if the dentists keep up. My new dentist is AWESOME. I have problems with my gums--I get food stuck in pockets all the time causing minor infections if I don't use my water pick. My hygienist can shoot tiny capsules of antibiotics right under the gums where they slowly dissolve and take care of any infection, rather than giving me an oral antibiotic script.
Plus, they shoot cavities with freakin' lasers now! And I can listen to Pandora on wireless headphones while I get my teeth worked on.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Unfortunately, they now have bagpipe players.
Oh Tom, that IS most unfortunate. I hope you have Advil.

All OWS needs is a supergroup of Bon Jovi, Kenny G, and the pipers, and soon Wall St. will be on its knees.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I didn't hit submit on the post right after I composed it, but I was asleep in the ER.
I did watch SPN, but do need to watch it again when I'm more awake. But there are *so* many shows on my TiVo to go through.
But first, I need to pass good wishes from the ER nurses on to my mother, When she's good, she's really very good.

The constant drumming at OWS seems to have finally stopped. Unfortunately, they now have bagpipe players.
I expect Goldman Sachs will capitulate soon
ha! bagpipes would definitely take me out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Note: spellcheck corrects "capping" to "aplomb". That's really rather random.
I do think I will refer from now on to my teeth with aplomb, rather than with crowns.....
I like bagpipes!

I like bagpipes, too. I remember my first summer I spent on campus in Milwaukee, between sophmore and junior year, and one evening, around 11:00, I heard several pipers playing. I knew CelticFest was that weekend, but I was surprised to hear pipers near campus. I looked out the window, and there were three pipers in full regalia, strolling down 14th Street, blowing away. Really cool!

So, who knew Eliza Dushku's mother is a big feminist Mormon? (Seriously.) [link]

I'm also in the bagpipe-loving camp, except when trying to sleep and so on. I suspect there must be some cilantro-ish nervous system tolerance in play.
