There was a guru who went to the dentist for a toothache.  The dentist told him that he would need a root canal, that the dentist could start it right now, and that the dentist would begin with an application of Novacaine.

“Oh, no, good dentist, for truly I transcend dental medication.”


After medicating for a while on what to do with the yellow jackets, I realize I can’t use petroleum products or poison.  No greenie I – it’s that the yellow jackets have their nest right next to the downspout, which is how we get our water.  I trust that the pipes are solid, and that the joints all are fully sealed.  But if it comes down to it, I’d rather brush my teeth with soapy water than kerosene or di-chloro-whatever.
