I hope you have a picture of him you could post somewhere Big Grin

I don't like dentists either Thumbs down but I reckon they are one of those necessary evils. I read an article not long ago that 80% of the cost of dental work is overhead. What????

Maybe I need to look into that fair wage/private stall thing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

GREAT story Shoe....LOVE your stories Big Grin

Yes!!

I was feeling poorly and weak and came in to rest a bit. Was sitting here at the desk in the AC and all of a sudden the shoffice doors were rattling, windows creaked,felt like the concrete floor was moving and the wire/cable coming from the speakers above me down to the computer were jiggling. I thought I might be getting ready to pass out and that my vision was blurring on me, due to feeling so yucky.

Two hours later I turned on the tv and it was on all the news. Alex said it rocked the house, too. She found out about it when I did cus when she got on the computer it was all over MSN and such.

Pretty weird, eh? Did it come all the way over ya'lls way?

Did you know what was going on? I didn't, I thought a big wind was moving in the way the doors were rattling and such.

I'm sure you heard on the news that so many folks had no idea what it was. The few who did (from Calif!) immediately started leaving buildings and going outside. Who'd a thunk it, eh?

Wow....

You know what, that ought to give us a clue just how large the area of devastation could be if we ever had a super duper 10.0 earthquake. Yikes.

Nice cool morning here!

Hugs.
