Re: Tartar Sauce

Brush before you shower, then afterwards, when the mirror is foggy, wipe it with the hem of your bathrobe.

You just have to deal with it if there are a few splatters overnight.

What is brushing your tongue supposed to do? Are you getting plaque buildup?
It was only recently that I learned from my hygienist that the primary goal of brushing should be to wedge the bristles under the gums to agitate the plaques that lead to gingivitis, bone loss, and vascular inflammation.

For once I have utterly no interest in politics.

Flossing before you brush? That makes no sense to me at all, but if that's Stanley's protocol, it explains why he "splatters" the bathroom mirror. I merely bespeckle it over time, a little bit, being a lady.

Of course you should brush your tongue; I believe I've heard this thing about having two brushes for separate purposes, but I doubt I'm going to ... well, alright, I'll consider that.

the dental hygienist claims using the same brush for both teeth and tongue spreads noxious tongue tartar onto one's teeth.

I do think that flossing is good for you, but I don't think the dentist can actually tell if you do it. I used to be a very religious flosser, and still, every dentist I went to would say at the end of my checkup, 'Keep up the brushing, and try to floss more!'

I used to be a very religious flosser, and still, every dentist I went to would say at the end of my checkup, 'Keep up the brushing, and try to floss more!'

This happened to me for years and years, and then on my most recent visit, when they said it again after finding my first cavity ever, I finally just insisted that no, really, I'm not lying, I really do floss every single day and have for years. The hygienist then decided that maybe my technique was off, and she showed me how to do it properly, which was indeed different from how I had been doing it all those years. It would be nice if someone had shown me that before the cavity, but oh well.

Ron Paul: "the welfare system helps the wealthy."

Of course it does. It helps everyone. If you're poor, it helps you directly, by giving you money, goods and services. If you're wealthy, it helps you indirectly, by ensuring that your employees and their neighbours and relatives are healthy, reasonably well-fed, moderately content, not spreading contagious infection, and generally uninclined to storm your house, scale your walls, hale you forth and cut off your head.

"Hello, this is Stanley. I'm sorry? Stanley. With an S, as in 'seagull'. Correct. What's that? From the internet. I'm sorry? The internet. Dot com? Exactly. No, you don't know me. Anyway, your dental office recently saw someone named Rance. Actually, maybe not named Rance in real life. Who knows? It doesn't matter. What I'm calling about is, you should definitely send me five dollars."

86: Sometimes the old stick-a-paperclip-in-the-headphone-jack trick works to fix that, or at least it works on my non-iPhone.

Though the same thing did happen to my iPod once, and I couldn't fix it myself. When I took it into the Apple store they said it was evident that moisture had gotten into the jack (not sure how), but they gave me a new one. Just make sure you back everything up before you take it in.

All three cavities I've had filled were found by the same dentist. Never a cavity before that dentist. Never since. Coincidentally the same for my brother. After his third, my parents got a second opinion from a new dentist, who said there really was no cavity there. The dentist was paid more than $5.
