Went to the Dentist for a routine cleaning, which went well. Then the Dentist came in a looked things over and said "do you have pain in the upper left side of your mouth", I said "no", he then took a scan and let me take a look at a big crack in one of my rear molars. He suggested a crown, there goes more money I could use for something else. Hopefully don't need a root canal on top of that.
 

Best of luck! When I had to have a crown the temporary crown would last maybe a week and then they'd have to put another one on. And they kept rejecting the custom made permanent crowns that would be received, due to poor quality. They finally put a temporary crown in that was thick enough to last until they finally got a decent permanent one. The last temp did not feel too good but at least it lasted long enough. That whole process took a couple of months.
 
Reminds me of an incident about 14 or 15 years ago, when the landlady of my local pub had terrible toothache late one night (on a weekend, so no local dentists open until Monday), after losing a filling.
I filled the cavity with 'Milliput' (after cleaning with mouth wash !) to ease her pain, advising her to see a dentist asap.
Two years later, when having a regular dental check, the 'Milliput' was still there, and no damage to the tooth, nerve or gums, and apparently the dentist concerned was impressed !

Er ...... don't try this at home folks !!
 
Actually they sell an epoxy kit designed for emergency repair of teeth. When I was having that problem with the temporary crowns I bought one of those kits and stuck it in the bag I take when I travel.
 
Are you approaching a milestone? A lot of companies like to find reasons to let people go just before they can retire or qualify for more benefits.
A buddy knew that his time was short when they started GPS tracking his delivery route. Two weeks later he was replaced by a temp driver.
 
Well you could do alot worse than the second selection. The first one could get a little annoying after awhile though.
 
Ya that happened to my grandfather.
He worked at Douglas almost his entire adult life( well it was Douglas when he started and McDonnell Douglas when he left) and 6 months before he hit 40 years they" eliminated his position".
With 39 and1/2 years he still got a pretty good retirement but it was only about 2/3 what it would have been in another 6 months.
 
Breaking down to have a second Cortizone shot into my ring finger on my right hand (it's also making it difficult to flip people off in traffic). Hopefully this one does the trick as the next step is surgery, nothing major but still want to avoid going under the knife if possible.
Parts just don't work like they used to;(
