Tooth Fairy
What is with the huge disparity in money/gifts received from the Tooth Fairy? Remember when it was just generally accepted that it was 25 cents? No one got more…no one got less. Well, I suppose our parents got a nickel or a dime, but we ALL got a quarter. All of us. We didn’t have …
Newspaper Comics
Is it just me or does anybody else find newspaper comics or cartoons annoying and tedious, yet we feel compelled to read them? You’ve already guessed the punch line in the first frame but you read on to the end anyway… and you were right…you predicted it. And you force a wan smile…Hmmm that was …
All About Teeth
12 year molars….Really …Really? Have they been growing all along? Really for 12 years… specifically for 12 years? And they just pop out right at that 12th year. Doesn’t that strike anyone as odd? Really? And what about braces? Could these be any more barbaric? Aren’t we a bit too vain? Who decided it is …
Halloween

Is this just to shame those of us who think there is really no need to do this birthday gift thing in the first place? Is this …
Hotels And Breakfasts
So you go to a hotel that holds conservatively 1000 plus people, I am just guessing here, stick w/ me….And its breakfast “nook” holds (and you need the quotes for “nook”) what should we say?–maybe 20 people on a good day, of rather small humans who are not worried about room or personal space. Can …
Beach Incident
So I am sitting on a blanket at the beach, admittedly to the far left of my blanket, when I feel my back brushed by a small gust as a pair of flip flops are thrown just behind me tossing sand onto my back. As I look over my left shoulder, I realize that not …
