LOL!! Heck, Tom..... You're only what? A year or two - maybe three - younger than I am? When is your birthday, Doctor?
Did you ever see the movie "Little Shop of Horrors" with Steve Martin as the Harley riding, sadistic Dentist who makes his girlfriend call him "Doctor"? ROFL!!
Or how about "Cactus Flower"? Waler Matthau (sp?) is a "tooth jockey"! LOL!!
One of my best friends in high school, Ralph Colpitts is now a dentist in Lake Charles, Louisanna..... We double-dated to see "Cactus Flower"..... Do you remember the movie "Billy Jack"? His sister, Cissy, was the girl who ...uh... showed a "bit" of cleavage in the Corvette just before it went swimming in the lake!
You know, Tom..... It takes a mighty strong and caring person to become a Dentist!
I'm very proud to have made your acquaintance, Doctor!
God Bless you and Dentists everywhere!
me!
