root canal, arizona, gulf of mexico oil, and baby teeth

Tilda's dad (me) might need a root canal.  Ouch.  I go back to the dentist in about a half an hour, where our dentist (who by the way generously gave my wife her old breast pump a few weeks back now) will drill in and see if I just need a crown or if I also need a root canal.  I recall being told before my first root canal that root canals aren't bad, they're better than the pain that drives you to a root canal.  I'll always remember that because it was correct.  I can't say the pain I have now reminds me of the pain I had before my other root canal.  But, more on that later.
     Arizona.  Recently on saturday night live, weekend update said 'sure arizona we know its a dry fascism, but its still fascism'.  Protests and boycotts are in the works (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2010/04/lapd-officials-expect-crowd-of-up-to-100000-at-may-day-rally-on-saturday-.html).  And see this piece on 'desert derangement' (http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/04/28/desert-derangement-syndrome/?ref=opinion).  Friggin arizona.
     And the white house is calling the oil in the Gulf of Mexico a 'threat of national significance' (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-oil-spill-20100430,0,645089.story).  Here are some good photos of the oil (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8650069.stm).
    At least Tilda doesn't have any teeth to need a root canal...hope I don't need one either.  til later.
