    So would this day be a warning to clean up your act between now and
    Christmas? :)

    Mike,

    Don't get caught with coal in your shoes.

    So would this day be a warning to clean up your act between now
    and Christmas? :)

    Or like Spike Jones noted:

    "I'm gettin' nuthin' for Christmas, cause I've been nuthin' but bad";
    and "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth".

    I'm really showing my age now. <G>

    Rob,

    and "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth".

    I'm really showing my age now. <G>

    accident playing hockey.. B)

    I lost one of my front teeth to a Baseball bat..

    I chipped and cracked the two front teeth in a bicycle accident
    years ago. I can't remember if I had to get a cap on it or not.

    However, I had to have all my teeth removed in mid-2000, and
    have worn full dentures ever since. So, I have my own set of
    "falsies". <G>

    I ended up with a crown on that front tooth and over the years have
    had 2 molars pulled, one on each side top.. Then just a couple of
    months ago I got a second crown when a molar got in bad shape but,
    other than that, I still have all my teeth. Probably a miracle
    considering how rarely I went to the dentist over the years.

    Lots of catch-up this past 2 years though after the gov't dental
    insurance came about. In theory it covers most work 100% but in
    practice it's more like 80%, but that's still a big help.. B)
