Rage

Rage. Anger. Betrayal. What other words can describe the latest tooth fiasco? Only a less "civilized" individual would not have refrained from the temptation to resort to senseless violence at the dentist's office. Yet, only an automaton would continue to tolerate the fraud of modern dentistry.

Scene From "Maze Runner"
I recently viewed the flick, "Maze Runner," to console my betrayed self. Wow! Very intense, and quite entertaining. Worthy of viewing, in my opinion. I am looking forward to the sequel.

Typical "Eleventh Hour" Hottie
Incidentally, I ran into Ann at the entrance to the only supermarket in Hawai'i Kai on Thursday evening. In the "eleventh hour," Ann was able to secure another law office position. The attorney has a home office in nearby Portlock, which is where Ann works. Unfortunately, she was hired as an "independent contractor." So, there are no benefits, no health insurance, no unemployment insurance, and no tax withholding. So, Ann will have a hefty summary of money to pay out next year for taxes and the ObamaScare penalty. In addition, if she were to become unemployed again, Ann will not qualify for unemployment benefits.

Typical Evening Outing Hottie
As stated previously in the "blog," I have reinstated the evening outings in Kahala at least once per week. Well, they are more like afternoon outings. And, I don't spend any time in the den of consumerism (read: shopping mall). I have no money and nothing necessary to purchase anyway.

Typical Motorhome Hottie
Well, surprisingly, there have been no beat-up (read: under $10,000) minivans listed for sale during the past three weeks. What does that tell you? Lots of people purchasing homeless motorhomes. The Nissan® Cube is serving me well in the interim. It is a good automobile, perfect for a senior citizen. Sheesh!

  1. Dentistry not that complicated. I got a first-rate root canal and pressed ceramic crown in eastern Europe for $400 total recently. Everything about the equipment, personnel, time and effort they spent on me, and final result compared favorably with similar work I had done in San Francisco years ago for much more money. Fast service too. Plenty of first-rate dentists in Vietnam, I'm sure. Definitely plenty in the Philippines. USA healthcare is a ripoff. But of course you cant go to Vietnam now because you tied yourself down with another "precious" (motor vehicle). Rage born of knowing you are not taking advantage of opportunities. If there was no choice, you would be fatalistic.
