hate the dentist

Yep me too. I finally got signed up for a healthcare package... i have to see a dentist about a tooth that HAS to go... I am tired of slicing my tongue on it.

Last time I went to a dentist was over a crown that came off .... Note to self No more Laffy Taffy... That was about twelve years ago. STill have the crown in the center console of the truck.

Yup.... all in my truck... somewhere in there is: a Tube bender, about four tarps, a dog bed, some screeen, varoius pieces of PVC, at least three pvc pipe cutters, a box of Pex fittings, some 1.5 inch pipe and 1.5 inch valve, a box cat5 wire, a 50 pound bag of White Proseo Millet, a change of clothes, a gazing ball (small one), about four years worth of mail, some GOOD hay hooks, some chain, some aircraft cable, chinlink fence parts, box of bolts, box of nails, bag of fender washers, black paint, tin snips, and about a hundred bees.

(thats the short list)

I drive through the Border Patrol check point every time I come back from home. They ask Me if I was hiding anyone in the back.... I look back and say ".... If I was.... theyd be dead..."

I collected the Bees the hard way.... Driving on highway 8 window open enjoying the beyoutiful weather.... Looked up there was an amophous cloud crossing the freeway... against the wind.... Key in Xfiles music... bout the time I realized what it was it was too late to roll up the window.

I hit the swarm in the middle and was pelted with honey bees from about my left clavicle down.... I felt stings but my clothes were protecting me... I had three miles to make it to the nearest turn off. and was mildly wondering how long anaphylaxis shock would kick in... No I am not allergic but hey a hundred bees....

So I pull off on the Indian reservation side.... entrance to the casino is on the other side of the freeway .... only people goingthrough would be coming from the Res... I parked hopped out and whipped off my shirt. and shook it out.... making my way around the truck out of sight. I figured no one would look or if they looked they wouldnt look long. 350 pound woman shakin her shirt out... Naw they didnt look.

Funny thing was My arthritis pretty much disappeared for about four or five days.

life has always been an adventure for me....

Nope, couldn't do it.

Al, that's a pretty church. Most old wooden churches in Finland are pretty utilitarian, the prettier ones are usually made of stone. The Uspenski cathedral (Orthodox) in Helsinki is really pretty though.



It lies pretty close to the Helsinki Cathedral (Lutheran), another pretty church.
