The Hobbit Hole XXXV - ...is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

[ExGeeEye]

"A cutlass never runs out of ammo."
But bullets never grow dull.

Seek for the Sword that was broken:
In Imladris it dwells;
There shall be counsels taken
Stronger than Morgul-spells.
There shall be shown a token
That Winchester's time is full,
For a sword never runs out of ammo,
But bullets can never grow dull.

Sorry 'bout 'dat....

....but not 'dat sorry...

Well - it went well. The Resident Doc was a youngster and a geek. He reeked geek. So we talked chemistry... pH's, precipitation, solutions and such. And I was pleased with the conversation. The best part was when I whipped out the ziplock baggie containing Eli and asked, "What would you like me to do with my pet rock?"

Eli is on his way to be dissected. Pooor Eli.

[Corin Stormhands]

At least you found Eli. Not so lucky with mine.

I wenta thenewdentist this morning. My dentist retired and this is the guy that bought the practice. Seemed nice enough, even if he is only 16.

But I'm not so sure about the “new” office. I can get over the change in decor (a friend's artwork commissioned for the office was gone). But the hygienist was far less funny that she thought she was.

And he has this new gizmo that lets him put a camera in my mouth and project the image live on a monitor on the wall so I can see what he's talking about. That was rather disconcerting.

I went to a dentist that had one of those once.... did he also have the machine that goes “ping”?

[Corin Stormhands]

I didn’t hear a ping. What’s that for?

[RosieCotton]

Just...ew...ow...ew....

[HairOfTheDog]

It's the most expensive machine!

**blushes**

I’m such a cultural illiterate.

[HairOfTheDog]

Shockingly so ;~)

[HairOfTheDog]

Does that mean you’ve never seen “Meaning Of Life?” You’ve never seen the “Death” scene?

[Lil'freeper]

I’m stuned.

[Corin Stormhands]

That’d be what that means.

[HairOfTheDog]

Well, personally, I think this is a very big hole in your cultural resume... I think you should correct it.

YouTube - Monty Python-The Meaning of Life-Death

I think that's one of my favorite scenes, and oft-quoted. :~)

[Bear_in_RoseBear]

Personally, I prefer Mr. Creosote... it's wafer thin!

[HairOfTheDog]

Well, yes, there’s that too :~)

And I do love the bit about war... the officers in particular with the hole in the tent. :~)

[Corin Stormhands]

Well, about that salmon you were sending...

[HairOfTheDog]

Not canned? :~)

[Corin Stormhands]

preferably not
