Clean toofies no cavities! This is me today 😃

I hate the dentist. Hate.

Other than that less than productive day really. But I did download the app to my phone that lets me unlock the doors to the new car remotely. **Mr ems** called me a nerd. I took it as a compliment 😃

Stay healthy everyone!

Yeah, me too.  
I lost a filling a couple of months ago. It hurts if I get food in there, so I went to the dentist.  
Lots of needles and drilling, xrays, a temporary cap.  
Now the tooth hurts like hell as does my jaw.

Dentistes. We hates them, yesss we does…

I don’t know how we got from a picture of a link sausage to Mcready (sp), but one of the things I like about Judaism is that, with the Catholics, is that despite the fact that they believe you can’t bury a suicide in sacred ground,  
HOWEVER, the Rabbis, usually guys with way too much Time On Their Hands, thinking about geeky stuff, figured out that if someone kills themselves, they must be crazy and are not responsible for their deed, and may still be buried in a Jewish cemetery.

Christ, I mean, Moses and Aaron on a stick, my tooth hurts!

**Flytrap** sorry about the toothies teh suckage. On the linky thing, the example you gave of the Rabbi’s is a perfect example of compassion for both the living and dead, as it should be IMHO. I was raised a Christian and still carry those values, whatever anyone might think of JC’s parentage is irrelevant, he was a good example to live by. This is something fanatics forget. Ok enough of that

Fluffy Bunnies

Fluffy bunnies?

Chris…Moses and Aaron on a stick, you can say fluffy bunnies and not own up to the blower on a Harley thing?  
Wimp.

🙂  
Crap, wrong guy.  
I hate it when that happens.

All good, I have a KZ buddy with a 78’ 1000, he has a turbocharger with fuel pump. It kicks in at about 2500 rpm. He says it scares him, mind you he also works on the pit crew for drag bikes and is the tester for when the big guy is not there. I am seriously thinking about this mod for when I upgrade this year because there is no reason a 30+ yo MC shouldn’t be driven at 180 mph, right? 😃

The FBs were to counter my seriousness

Evening, everyone…

Last day of vacation tomorrow (sort of; had to go to a mandatory irk meeting today that was actually informative, but _boooooooring_). Had a full week off before that.

Got some nice heavy marble coasters for a house Christmas present this year, in the hope that the glass sweat wouldn’t make them cling on like our old wood ones, then fall off on the table with a bang. No dice. They still clingon and fall. Damned physics! Suction has its place, but the dinner table? Really…

Hope all is well by you all, and rest easy tonight.

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis a chilly 34 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 58 for the day so brrrrrrr!

I might go check out that pit thread. Or not. One never knows with me.

I have a box of foodstuffs packed for our trip up to Gatlinburg and environs this weekend. OYKW says that’s a little bit OCD to have it already packed up. I say it’s plannin’ ahead so we don’t have to do everything last minute. I am, of course, completely right. 😃 He also thinks it’s weird that I already got beer and a bottle o’ rum (YO! HO! HO!) for the trip. However, the likker sto’ is on my way home from irk so I stopped Monday and got it all. I am efficient!

Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence. Only two more days this week!

Happy Hump Day Y’all!

I really should keep up with the other serial threads. I just clicked on the [Whatcha Readin’](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=680799) thread and found out \*\*Khadaji \*\*went to the big message board in the sky last month. ☹

I have new insoles in my irk shoes. Let’s see if they keep my feet from hurting too much.
