I have five or six medium sized orange cones sitting at the back of my
garage, gathering dust. I've explained to them that dust-gathering is
not a profitable exercise in the current economic climate, but they're
not listening to me. Can anyone suggest some better employment for my
cones?

Can they extract teeth? If so, send them to Delaney because he needs them
more than the rest of us do.
Thankyew.

Well, the teeth in question are mostly gone at this point anyway. And if
it helps others reading about this any, the pain was always of the "will
go away for a while with an acetaminophen or two" variety, nothing worse
than that - it wasn't "hey, these tissues are sick and diseased and rotting
in this man's mouth" pain, more "these tissues are currently Inflamed FNARR
and hurting because they're stretched, nothing else".

I have just extracted three of my own teeth, and am ready to send them
to Dave Delaney. To what address should I send them? (<-- Good
grammar.)
ALSO! I got a brilliant haircut on Saturday. Before I looked like
Cheech Marin about 20 years ago. Now I look like the Fonz. YOWSA!
Except not gay, unlike Simon 'Gay Hair' Clark.
Actually I look more like Bert Newton. But since no one knows who he
is, I can say stuff like that and get away with it. No, actually it's
probably more of a sort of a cross between Henry Kissenger, Woody
Allen and Omar Sharif. Also Richard Burton and Yasser Arafat. And
Elmo. And a piece of 2 day old bread.

Well then stop saying things are draining. Draining means pus*** and pus
means badness. If they are draining, you are minimizing. If they arent
draining, you are catastrophizing. Not that there's anything wrong with
that, I do it all the time. That is why I am ugly and will rot in hell

I've had this discussion with Tamara repeatedly. I hate pictures of me. I
sent a couple to her because she is a pesky thing that never gives up, but
that doesn't mean I want them in the gallery of dqqm. Now I don't even have
them to send because they are on my other computer, not on the Mac.
Whenever I try to get my kids to take a picture of me, it cuts off my head.
You are all out of luck. There is actually one ARKite who has met me in
person who can attest that I look nothing like Gillian Anderson, so there is
no point in posting the pictures that Tam has anyway, as they apparently
give the wrong impression. Either that or she really really wants to take a
trip to California and stay at my house. (Don't tell her that the welding
guys are long gone.)

I don't think so, but Tam does. Tam, send Mr. Burrage a copy of the picture
of me you think looks like Gillian Anderson. But only if he apologizes for
lying to me about the toast hat. I really need to get that picture
transferred over to this computer, along with a bunch of other stuff I have
been too lazy and/or inept to transfer.

Mine was always of the "will go away with bubblegum or dental floss"
variety. The fractured teeth themselves never actually hurt at all; it
just hurt my jaw to have them keep moving around, and, in fact, I never
even realized they were fractured at all until one of them simply broke
off in a half-dozen teeny pieces. And it still didn't hurt except when
I stuck my tongue into the jagged edges.
I'm still reserving judgment on whether it was the fractures that made
them keep moving around so much, or the stress of moving around so much
after I had two wisdom teeth out was what caused them to fracture.

I've never heard called anything at all--or, in the case of my really
bizarre peeling shoulders that one time I mowed the lawn in Dallas with
my shirt off, SWEAT. IANMTU. I had a serious farmer tan and had taken
off my shirt to even it out, and when I came inside the untanned parts
of my arms were all blistered but didn't hurt at all. Turned out there
was a layer of dead skin whose pores must have been all clogged with
sebum and/or that awful red clay people were trying to grow lawns in,
and the sweat just got trapped underneath it.

Hey, I never lied to Paula about wearing a toast hat! I lied to Beable
about NOT wearing a toast hat! So you see, those are entirely
different matters.
As a compromise, instead of apologising and squirming I will express a
small degree of contrition and then briefly hop from one foot to the
other in an awkward manner.
OK; done. Now, photos please.

Damn! I forgot to mention that Dave doesn't look ANYTHING like I imagined
him to look like. He actually looks like a guy I know, Allister (yes, the
spelling is correct) who is a Bible-Thumper and who once told me that he
loves me but that he couldn't be with me because I am a "tainted woman."
Oh and Allister had way, WAY more back-hair than Luke could ever dream to
have. You could feel it crunch under his shirt if you ever gave him a
friendly pat on the shoulder.

I met Dave once or twice, years ago, and strangely I don't remember
him looking entirely like that; I picture his face being narrower.
Maybe I'm just conflating him with Sean Smith, whom I saw more recently.
