Random Thoughts

Nick - among many injury's though my life. I had my 2 front teeth broke in half in a fight when I was 16. I have had crowns since I was 18, last summer after 30+ year my mouth was infected. I seen my dentist and he sent me to a specialist and he said no more root canals - no more crowns. Long story - So im look at dental implants at around 5000 per. 10,000 for 2 teeth.


Last month I had steroids injected into both upper eyelids to help with my ongoing eye troubles and swelling. Fun stuff! lol

Yeah...I'm looking at nearly $5K for mine as well....Lucky for me I sprung for the top tier dental plan so I looks like they're going to pay half.

[WingsFan]

Oh good, yea Im looking at out of pocket.. or look like an old time hockey player...oh well.... its only money.

Not really a "random thought" as such because currently watching a factual Netflix series called "Evil Genius". It is actually very frightening indeed and that pizza delivery guy who became a hostage in a situation in Erie, Pennsylvania must've been going through hell.

But is there anyone on here who can explain police protocol over there in the USA? This guy basically had a bomb strapped to him. Head sized cuff locked around his neck with the bomb strapped to his chest, and I totally accept that it could've been fake and just part of a game. Any police force around the world would assume that.

But the bomb went off and killed the guy. Apparently a foot square hole, a couple inches deep in his chest. After that bomb went off, the police kept their guns aimed at him? What is that all about? Fully understand other devices could've been strapped to him and could've gone off......., but keeping their guns aimed at him? He was dead. And if he wasn't actually dead yet, he clearly wasn't going to be sitting up ever again in the next few minutes of his life. They must've knew he was dead because apparently no one called for an ambulance. The coroner was the first "medic" on the scene.

Can't believe I never heard about this back in 2003.

I had a friend in college who was a criminal justice major and for an internship his job was to compile evidence for parole board hearings. Some of the cases he would show us, you couldn't believe how depraved some of the cases were and didn't see any press.

So I saw an ad on Facebook about an add on bidet thing and thought I would check it out. I go to YouTube and find a video review of it that then had a link to buy it on Amazon. While I'm at Amazon (no I didn't buy it) I decide to check the reviews to see if this little butt squirter is junk or not and I read the only one star review it got and this is it.

So I’m going to share this experience with everyone, I hope you get a kick out of it. I kinda did.
So I fell victim to these Facebook ads about how my butt wasn’t clean enough and got my ocd thinking is my butt dirty?? Oh I can’t have a dirty butt !! No way ! So I jumped on Amazon and got me one of them little butt washing potty retrofits delivered the next day. It came today and after 10 minutes of a frustrating install thinking I had stripped the stupid plastic connection parts on my toilet, all is good with no leaks and we’re ready for a trial run. Okay here goes... now this is a trial run mind you so no real business going on, this is a very important detail and you’ll soon see why. I pulled down my pants, sat down and reached over to the controls to try this baby out. .......... Well all I can tell you is I heard a click from the knob I was starting to turn and y’all let me tell you I instantly felt a full stream blast of jet powered cold water shoot right up the ole pooper with such precision ida swore someone was aiming the damn thing. In that instant the signals traveled to my brain and without a conscious thought I jumped straight up and fell over towards the floor. As if this wasn’t bad enough the stupid knob doesn’t turn itself off when you let go of it so Im instantly followed off my launchpad by a stream of cold water, following me as I shot forward, up my back and blasting me right in the back of the head as I struggled to get away from this cold wet monster that was violating me. I struggled to reach the knob and turned it off before the whole bathroom got soaked. It’s all right I’m ok really 🤦🏻♂️

Think I’ve just witnessed an honest to God world record. Just left a job quote there, (guy wants a new heating system) and he must’ve said “at the end of the day” easily between 60 and 100 times.

“Aye Mark, it’s been really sluggish and at the end of the day, it’s getting colder at night, (no shit Sherlock) and I’ve been wanting a new system for months but at the end of the day, it’s Aw aboot the money eh? But I’ve looked online and at the end of the day the mid priced options would be better because at the end of the day, the wages might be changing after Aw the Covid. I mean at the end of the day, I have wages protection through the union but at the end of the day.......... “ 🤦♂️

Might inflate that price slightly and email that over to him.......... at the end of the day.

Ha!! That's annoying. I used to have an accounting professor who said, "If you will" all the time. "So the cost of goods sold will reflect the FIFO method, if you will." It became such a crutch for him, we started keeping count during his lectures. It's been awhile but I seem to remember him hitting around 40 times of using that phrase during one lecture.

Sounds like your customer is a bottom line type of guy!
