Phil Dentist

Note the tiny picture below:

It is the first (and only – up till now) picture of me smiling while taking a
picture. Orthodontia and Fouled self esteem circa 1998 have eliminated the open
mouth smile from my repertoire for some time. I don’t know why my Father’s
Genetic Traits were inherited on such a 1:1 basis, but I’ll be damned if Modern
Dentistry didn’t find an answer.

A couple lessons from this week:

– When you ridicule someone for their incompetence in web content
administration, you have been online too much.

– When the lady at Wal-Mart fails to realize you are trollying 2 cases of
Beverage in your cart – and therefore fails to scan them – you should just go
with the flow.

– Everyone needs a toaster oven.

– Never underestimate the power that you hold over people more than 3 years
younger than yourself. (Up till age 34, when the advantage disappears. Only to
reappear at age 65.)

– Phil Collins is under-appreciated.

Phil’s best Years occured during the 79-84 “I’m balding and have a stripe of
hair moving down the equator of my skull” Period. Period.

“There Must Be Some Misunderstanding” and “Salsbury Hill” were tainted by
the fact that I had to share credit with Peter Gabriel. Yet, I smile.
