Izzy:

I'm the only ET-er who watched the Michael Jackson memorial?

Oh, surely not... I was only prevented by, er, circumstances beyond my control, and I'm certain everyone else... No?

How's things, Izzy?

Re: Tuesday Open Thread (4.00 / 5)

Things are ok, except that I'm now one tooth short. I was thinking about having a big memorial for it, except in my howling pain, I didn't have my wits about me enough to ask the dentist for it. Do you think if I laid out a little closed box with a flower on it anyone would know the tooth wasn't in there?

I'm sure. Unless they're expecting it to get up and dance.

was it safe for the dentist to work wearing only one glove?

Re: Tuesday Open Thread (4.00 / 3)

There's a coincidence.

Just had one of my wisdom teeth out so I'm that much dumber, I guess...

The injection was the worst bit...I've always hated needles since I was a kid and they seemed like garden syringes then...
