  1. My SIL was a dental hygienist for years. She was always pressured to "upsell" procedures. Her dentist would send her to seminars that had nothing to do with dental work. It was all about selling additional treatments. My current dentist quoted me $2300 for a crown. I refuse to pay that much. He can retire at 50 on someone else's $$$. I called a friend who has been a dentist for 35 years and runs a small single dentist practice. He quoted me 1/3 that price. And the biggest dental scams are places like Aspen dental. They pressure the unsuspecting public into unnecessary dental work worse than time share salesmen.
  2. One of the pregame announcers said that's the hand he would stomp on if he were playing.
  3. I'm watching UK vs UGA on Skycast. There is no commentary, just stadium noise. On every 3rd down the UGA booth annoucer goes into "it's 3rd down". But he stretches the "3rd" out for 30 seconds. It's annoying as hell. He needs to be throat punched.
  4. I thought the A&M 3 plays in 16 seconds was the stupidest offensive series of the year. AU just proved me wrong.
  5. I think he's just a dumbass. Looking back he thought he might handle the situation differently. https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/charges-dismissed-against-man-who-shot-at-driver-on-i-95-in-miami-dade/2993577
  6. I'm starting a new part time job and want to make a copy of my contacts off my work IPhone. Boss is ok with this because I'll be in a support position at new company. My problem is I can't get all my contacts updated on my ICloud account. On my phone, I have an "all contacts" list and an "IPhone contacts" list. On ICloud I have the same named list but I can't get my "all contacts" list to back up to ICloud. I have done everything the interwebs and Chat GPT suggest but nothing works. I've toggled contacts on and off, ICloud on and off etc. I believe the missing ICloud contacts are in the "exchange" account but they all appear in the all contacts list and I thought it would be better just to update one account instead of adding another. Any suggestions? Thanks
  7. I’m not sure douche bag adequately described this guy. He just got out of his truck and went inside. And he’s not the first person I’ve seen do this.
  8. That's not even a "look out" block. That's a "try this way, it's a faster way to the QB" block.
  9. I think it's hilarious watching fat asses like this fight. 30 seconds in and their wheezing so hard they're close to a heart attack. If you could fight for 1 minute you would kill them. But I know if I ever got into a fistfight again it would look like this.

    LOL. That’s one thing I don’t need help with!

    Getting old sucks

    I'm retiring at the end of the month. I always though it would be a joyous time but I'm struggling. I've worked with my son for the last 15 years and I'm going to miss our daily interaction. And I've been doing the 8-5 for over 45 years. Every morning I woke up with something to do or accomplish. I've got a good flex time job lined up for about 10 days a month so I'm not stopping cold turkey but it's going to take some time to adjust. And on top of that I've got to have an MRI, surgery and a tooth crowned the first month off. For the last few years, I've focused on retirement priorities and finances, so we're in good shape for now. But I never thought through this actual retirement part of getting old.
  12. Didn't know where to put this but it's for real.
  13. Saw this in Oregon
  14. For some reason we always told our kids "If fish had butts and we were all nuts, what a Christmas we would have." Yeah it makes no sense but it made them laugh.
  15. When he dropped the line “you really need to be in THIS car”, I told him they made about 40,000 of them this year so if I don’t buy this one, I bet I can find another one.

    I took Flomax for 2 days. The second night I passed out in the bathroom. I barely made it to the floor before everything went black. Probably a blood pressure drop but I refused to take it after that.

    When we were discussing treatment he mentioned TURP and something I couldn't catch (hearing aids are next). I asked chatgpt about his preferred procedure and it said HoLep first and Turp second depending on size. I'll ask him about them when we speak after the MRI.
  18. We went in looking for a '25 model they had listed. Salesman said it was in back and was gone for about 10 minutes. He came up in a '26 model and said he couldn't find the '25. We drove it but I told him we were really wanting a 25 model they were willing to deal on. He said he thought he could make us a good offer on the '26 and went to talk to his manager. He was gone about 10 minutes and I told my wife that I knew they wouldn't make any deals on a '26 and that if he couldn't find the '25 we were going to walk. 5 minutes later he came back with the keys to the '25 model he "found" and never brought up the '26. IDK if they really do but it was odd that the sign was on the wall behind the cubicles.

    Had a Dr visit the other day because my PSA is up again. He doesn't think it's cancer because it's been much higher before. But he thinks it's severe BPH and wants me to have another MRI. If BPH is confirmed, he's talking surgery to clear obstructions. He mentioned TURP and some other I didn't catch. Has anyone had this procedure done? A lot of the side effects are rare but include incontinence, impotence and retrograde ejaculation. Nothing that I want to experience.
  20. Years ago, I told my wife I thought car dealers sales cubicles were bugged so they could hear your conversation when they went to “talk to the manager.” I feel vindicated now.
  21. On the goal line stand, OSU had 5 men between/over the guards and center. The down linemen submarined and stopped the push, everyone else crashed the pile. I don't understand why someone didn't realize that there were 5 people in the spot they were going to run it and call a timeout to regroup. I was going to post the video but it just pisses me off.
  22. Probably to screw OSU out of playing in the horseshit at night.
  23. Where did Ohio State find all the school crossing guards for their band?
  24. I believe he's in this book.
