| Flying Scotsman: | Think we're all the same although I've never had a root canal before. At least your done for a while with that stuff. |

| neomaxizoomdweeb: | Hardly done. Now they will put a crown on it and while the guy was in there rooting around he found another tooth that he wants to work on. I think it is like a bad auto mechanic except the tooth guy has impunity because he can just bill it to the insurance company so there is no incentive not to find more work. |

| Flying Scotsman: | Bummer...what about a 2nd opinion if your skeptical? You can hardly complain, AR racers have notoriously bad teeth with all the energy bars and drinks coupled with not brushing your teeth for 3 or 4 days if racing! Ask Roger, really soft teeth but he's super manly (Read: Pain freak) and doesn't even use anesthetic's - no way Jose, not me. |

| ebone: | To atone for all those ARs and constant eating during training periods, I've started carrying a toothbrush in my pocket, so I can brush after lunch or any other morsel. Sorry about your ordeal, Mahican. |

| Yukon King: | what's bad about root canals? is it the hideous screeching noises?generally, they seem fine to me....& for the crown fitting & installation appointments you simply DONT need anesthetic, I never use it for those two appt.s cuz I hate getting the skanky injection in the first place...
btw Hb, i log my cr*ppy little walks etc cuz I track my activity levels so I know what's up w my arthritis, it's kind of a disease log, not adventure racing, sorry for pirating yer website Ken :), I guess ya see all kinds on here now (um, poker?! yeah, hmmm). But it is interesting to read about you-all & your crazy activities. This site is my favorite at the moment, blangton ref'ed it a few weeks ago as dream destination... |

| neomaxizoomdweeb: | I was wondering if he was going to needle me again before the next grinding session since the tooth is now essentially dead.
I was afraid that there might be some spillover if I added to Haggis' dission on Middle's log. It is pretty funny. i wonder if the term "attackpoint nazi" has been used before or is Haggis' to own. i have been thinking about doing that race but not sure I could stand the time away from the family. Maybe I could make it a family vacation. but then my wife may not appreciate her vacation being used to chase me through the mountains. |

| Yukon King: | plunk them at the end in some faboo campsite/B&B/whatever and cycle quickly towards them...then they can organize your first shower for you, and yer lawn chair, & then BBQ steaks for you N stuff. It'll be nice. |
