Another yee or "ghee", if that is spelled correctly, I am guessing would be the clarified butter. The butter you melt down, skimming the fat off as it is cooked and then after the fat has been melted off, it is the type most Indians would use for their cooking. Its good!

Well done. I'm with True Grit. I could never have thought that quickly; however,

I have "bumped" the exceedingly rude as they carry on with their antics.

I used to keep my horse at this boarding facility in another state before I moved here. The owners granddaughter one day kept skipping down the aisle past a bunch of us sitting on hay bales talking. When she did this, however, she would kick at one of us, apparently me most of the time. I asked her politely to stop it and she kept doing it. So when she came around again, my foot slowly moved out just enough as she skipped by and her other foot hit mine and down she went face first in the dirt. I just looked at her after she got up crying and said, "See what happens to little girls who arent nice?" Needless to say, she stopped doing that.

It wasn't me, but I know the person who did it.

At the end of dental school, we all have to take National and State Board exams to insure that we are ready to practice dentistry on the public.

I know of a poor married dental school graduate that told a poor young man who needed a tooth restored that the would do it for free if he would be his patient for the state board.

The young grad got his patient to the clinic on time, gave him anesthetic, did the prep, made the impression, put a temporary on the patient and was getting ready to do the lab work and then said to his patient, 'We'll see you tomorrow". To that the poor young patient said, "Well, if you really want to see me tomorrow, you'll pay me $200 cash before I sit in this chair again"

The poor dental grad didn't have an extra $200 to spare, he had used everything he had to pay for the exam fee and to get everything he needed for the exam, ie... gold for the restoration, lab equipment etc... Back then $200 would be equivalent to approximately $900 now.

He assured the patient that he would find someway to get him the $200, because if the patient did not return, he would fail the exam. He told one of the examiners what had happened. The examiner asked the grad if he had the money, to which he replied, I think I might be able to scrape up $100. The examiner then pulled out his wallet and gave him $100 and said "I'll help you with this patient tomorrow." The grad then went to the lab and spent a few hours making the restoration.

The young man arrived on time the next day, He was handed two $100 bills and sat in the chair for the procedure. The Examiner took a 'special interest' in this dishonest patient and came over to assist the young grad.

The restoration was put into the mouth and was found to fit perfectly. But rather than just cement it in, the examiner asked the grad to numb the patient. Knowing there was no need to do this, but wanting to pass the exam, the grad was compliant, the patient didn't want to be numbed but he had heard the examiner so he submitted. About five minutes later the examiner came back to the operatory site and checked the young robber to see if he was numb. He asked the grad if he had a new carbide burr because he said there was one thing left to do before he could cement the restoration in place. The grad gave him the high speed handpiece with a brand new burr and the examiner took it and drilled right down the middle of the tooth, right into the nerve until it bled. Saying, "Now this will fit perfect", The examiner then placed a small dressing over the bleeding hole and told the grad to cement it with a wink. The cementation was checked, the grad was told that he had passed with flying colors this exam and the patient dismissed.

The examiner then told the grad, that young man will learn, you don't screw with a dentist. He'll either pay double that amount for a root canal in the next couple of weeks or end up loosing his tooth!

Yup, don't ever mess with a dentist. You will most definitely regret it in the end.

NO WAY!!!!! Are you serious!?! NO WAY! Holy Crap!

I had a great relationship with my dentist (unfortunately had to leave him when I moved out of state). He would put movies on for "me" to watch, but the three of us, the dental assistant Judy, the dentist, and myself would all sit there and watch Ben Stiller movies and crack up the whole time. He kept having to stop working on me because I'd be laughing so hard. He tried so hard to be professional, even during the scene in "There's something about Mary" when Cameron Diaz takes the "hair gel" from Ben Stillers hair and rubs it into her own hair. We would sit there just laughing and carrying on every visit, I'd have him and the assistant both swearing and telling jokes in bad taste, it was great. When I was finished and left, the whole waiting room would have overheard our roars and be staring at me. I'd just smile and say "He's a great dentist.... don't worry".

While I can't agree with what the patient did, what the examiner did was criminal. It was deliberate malpractice, if not assault. He should lose his license for it (not the one being examined, but the one who did the drilling...)

At our 4-H barn last fall we had a couple of young girls I'm guessing 7 and 8 years old that were rude and snotty to everyone.
Their daddy is the one that pushed the panels into me and DD.

Well they had come into the barn and I was sitting there and one of them stepped into a pile of fresh cow manure and she kicked her boot trying to get it off, but it came back and splatted her right in the face.

Now I didn't bust out laughing like I wanted to but did think to myself, "never kick a fresh turd on a hot day."
She stood there scowling at me so I guess I wasn't keeping the smirk off my face that well.
