Hi Daryl!

 DS>   Money talks...mine waves "good-bye". :P The mudslinging gets
 DS> worse each year. The party out of power will do all they can to
 DS> wrest it back from the party in power...a never ending vicious
 DS> cycle.
 BM> I've noticed some of the 'anti-ads' (mainly against the opponent) have
 BM> brought up items done years ago but the voiceover makes it sound like
 BM> something done recently. ...And as usual we end up choosing the lesser
 BM> of the two evils.
 DS>   Not to get too "political" or "spiritual" here, but it is also
 DS> taking on a "religious" deal, with Biden wanting to cater to
 DS> Islam, and Trump (and the Christians) wanting no part of it.

As I recall Obama did that too.



 BM> Some people just plain don't like being told what to do and will do the
 BM> opposite even if bad for them in the long run.  At this point Iowa
 BM> isn't requiring face masks in general public, there are requirements
 BM> for certain businesses.  At this point I don't wear a mask unless need
 BM> to but if the state or county issues an order I will comply -- figuring
 BM> they know something I don't.
 DS>   I may have mentioned this in another area or message...but a
 DS> female in California took the expression "P!$$ 0N +H!$" to the
 DS> max in a Verizon store, after being told she had to wear a
 DS> max...she dropped her pants and panties, and proceeded to urinate
 DS> on the floor. The police were on the way already, and she was
 DS> arrested...then, it was discovered she had a bunch of stolen
 DS> items in her car.

There are better ways to protest.  And sounds like she wasn't too bright
in the first place.



 BM> Fortunately no ouch other than the sharpness of the tooth on the
 BM> tongue. 'Ouch' for general tooth damage, yes. :)  And what was sort of
 BM> funny was my dentist's son had graduated from dental college and joined
 BM> the practice so I was one of his first patients.  Poor guy had a bit of
 BM> 'trial by fire' as I have a gag reflex, the molar is in the back
 BM> (obviously) where things are a little more sensitive, so the working
 BM> back there, plus trying to install and keep the filling ring device
 BM> back there...  That did not work so Plan B -- filling done. Not going
 BM> to win any awards for being pretty but we got the job done.
 DS>   That's all that matters. But, you need to be kind to
 DS> dentists...they have fillings, too. <G>

Hopefully they didn't do their own!


 DS>   Thank you. Tagline thievery is both an art and science. <G>
 BM> As well as a touch of humour/sarcasm.
 DS>   Nancy Backus could teach you and me a few things. <G>

I wonder where she is?  She did say she had been unusually busy.



 DS>   But, man and beast have to do it. I wonder who
 DS> commissioned...let alone paid for...the study determining the
 DS> frequency of flatulence with humans... from 15 times a day to 20
 DS> times an hour. I heard they were going to do a study on second
 DS> hand flatulence, but couldn't get any volunteers. :P

Bleah!
