This TV show, The Doctors, really bugs me. Why does the guy have to wear scrubs on a TV show? Has he just come from the ER? Is he going to the ER after taping the episode? Can he not afford regular clothes due to malpractice lawsuits?

The generally accepted method is to yell at high volume: "Heyza baby, you like all the junk in my trunk?" Then sashay away while looking over your shoulder with an suggestive smile. If he is impressed, he will reply, "Girl, I gotta call da police, for you be escaping wit' my heart!"

If you're all shy and that doesn't do it for you, watch for pupil dilation. The pupils never lie.

You know whats really annoying, when you are trying to use an arcane software (or any arcane system) that has a arcane user interface, and when you need help from a mentor/teacher they tell you to go look through some bloated reference of tech talk.

In this case, I'm trying to use a software design tool Cadence (for any circuit designers out there) and I have a specialty tech file of devices, but its incomplete and I'm trying to figure out how to add standard devices like Vdd and GND. Its something I've wasted > 10 hrs trying to figure out, when it would take less then 2 minutes for my teacher to just show me.

How the hell did I get a plantar's wart on my heel? I didn't even know wtf it was until an hour ago at the Pharmacy...

The cure is apparently to sand it off and apply acid and cover with band aid. Nice archaic cure.

Just be glad that's the cure for Planters warts and not Genital warts

What causes people to clench/grind their teeth? Stress?

Just over the past 6 months to last year or so, I've been noticing that I clench my teeth quite a bit, especially if I stir in the middle of the night or just when I'm waking.

If nothing else get a cheap drop in hotwater mouthguard until you stop.. You can wear your teeth pretty badly but grinding them in the night.

Go see your dentist and they can direct you to someone who will make you a custom mouth guard.

I'm pretty sure I don't grind my teeth. It's more just the periodic clenching.

At least I think so.

Seems a lil extreme to spend $100 on a mouth impression, and another $200 on a mouthguard when $8 at sportchek does the trick..

300 bucks for a custom mouthguard? I got mine done for fifty last year in Camrose.

I've noticed that when I get tired I clench my teeth to stay awake... I only discovered that because I have been tired while driving and I noticed that I've clenched my teeth and I feel it in the jaw.

So maybe it's because you're tired?

Holy smokes...I'm sure mine was only fifty bucks. It was under a hundred for sure...and I know that it wasn't covered under any medical plan thing being as us poor farmers don't have fancy things like that.

That's an interesting thought but I'm absolutely exhausted now and no clenching.

I think it's just when I have a low level of consciousness like in the middle of sleep or when I'm waking up.

That may be your answer right there.
