i went to the dentist today, fearing i had a mouth infection and expecting to be given a prescription for antiobiotics and sent on my way...but noooo, the dentist says one of my wisdom teeth is rotten and pulls it out right there and then!
he said i was very calm and did well but i feel like somone's hit me in the face with a hammer.
have any of you had a wisdom tooth out?
Oh yes, had that done. 2 at a time for me. The procedure is no big deal now - it's the aching afterward that gets me. Those pain meds are your best friend those first couple of days!
Also, make sure you rinse the hole in your gums constantly. Stuff gets in there and rots and smells horrible if you're not vigilant.
i just wanted to let you know of something that has liberated me recently.
i decorated my office with hearts for valentine's day this year.

The Journal of the A. M. A. is the vilest sheet that passes the United States mail.... Nothing new and useful in theraputics escapes its unqualified condemnation. Its attacks are generally ad hominem. Its editorial columns are largely devoted to character assasination.... Its editor [Morris Fishbein] is of the type of Jew that crucified Jesus Christ.
downtown brooklyn its definite.

An effort to isolate themselves from reality
That is the first thing that jumped into my mind, too. They will be holed up in a compound miles from nowhere.

here in the uk over the last couple of years i hear more about people leaving/being removed due to apostasy?
do you think this is true or is it because my radar is up and listening?.

they are "apostates" from mankind

But in their legalese, I do believe that "apostasy" is beginning to snowball.
