My life rates a 7.4 out of 10

Following a recent trend of insubstantive posts and borrowing from others (in this case Sassy Lady) - I have bared my soul to an electronic oracle that promised to rate my life.

It is probably more or less on par for the course for this middle aged, middle classed, middle expanding guy.

Well Richard, as I quote earlier in one of your post...

Sometimes, you'll be surprise with the outcome of positive answers ...and in my case its the opposite...harhar

For some reason, people like to categorize things. I suspect this is because we are very good at pattern processing and consequently are always looking for patterns and ways to divide things up and summarize them.

Different perspectives and an open mind are always needed and I am always open to looking at things from different perspectives.

And, in the end, it is just for fun - just like my horoscope which says I should not reveal too much today ;-)

It is just for fun - but ... having said that, I recognize that (1) I have a very good life situation compared to most, (2) I feel unfulfilled (I just have to be careful not to let this spill over and upset things that have nothing to do with that unfulfillment).

Why you should regularly visit your dentist.

I hadn't been to my dentist since May-2004 (normally I went on weekends, but since Sofia and the kids moved to Montreal, I am not in Ottawa on the weekends). Last night, as I was munching on some cashews, I felt a pain in one of my molars and then some grit in my mouth. I went and washed it out, assuming that maybe there had been a stone or something amount the cashews. Turns out I noticed a hole in the surface of the molar (top right, second from the back, my wisdom teeth were removed years ago). Fishing around for grit in my mouth, it looked like crumbled filling. So I assumed that my filling had cracked and crumbled and come out. Went to the dentist this morning, he took an x-ray and came back with bad news. I have a large cavity under the filling, which gave way. The filling did not fall out, but rather impacted into the space of the cavity. He did not rework the filling, since the cavity is very near the root - cleaning it out would likely result in exposing the root. As some...

Chicken Menses

A friend of mine is an ovo-lactic vegetarian. This means that in addition to the plant matter he consumes, he also consumes dairy products and eggs. Dairy products I can accept, but eggs? … hmm, I wasn’t so sure - it sounds a bit like those vegetarians who say they eat chicken and fish. After all, the egg is an animal product. His answer was simple and satisfying, "Eggs are chicken menses. The hen will produce an egg whether she is fertilized or not. Unfertilized eggs are the discarded products of ovulation akin to menses in mammals." Image grabbed from here .
