Analect 3.3x



23 July 2010. So, is it worth it to save a tooth? Or join the masses with a hole in your mouth--an ancient tradition, yes--the toothless grin. (And Gram had lost all her teeth by the time she was 30...) One survives...

But still, but still, the delirious drugs--blocking all pain until just when one least expects it, and then (and then) that single tiny strand of nerve fiber...

Steve Martin, the film clip--predatory dentist on a motorcycle.... (Like Cecil's story of the polar bear--out there on the ice, you need a big gun...) Pretty much covers it...

In any case, there are deeper fears...

Better a nice walk with Chauncey and Odette...
