One Tooth Ache Down And...

...one sinus infection to go and then I should be chipper once again. Missed work today because I was feeling like crap, I am guessing because of a bad tooth that led to a sore throat and sinus infection.
Went to see the dentist about 2 1/2 or 3 weeks ago and she drilled a couple of teeth to replace old filling in one and fill a cavity in the other. With a day, my gun started to hurt around one of those teeth and the tooth behind it. I just figured it was sore from the work she had done but also noticed lots of food getting stuck between those teeth. A couple of days later I had a sore throat and made an appointment to seen ENT who I should have seen a month earlier for a cancer follow-up visit. Thing was I had to wait a week for my appointment. During that time the sore throat got better but the tooth was bothering me more and so was my jaw and then my sinuses on that side so I made an appointment to see the dentist again too. That appointment was set for this Saturday but the ENT appointment was last Thursday. The ENY said I had a sinus infection and noted my edema was recurring. He gave me some antibiotics. Within 3 days of starting them, the pain in the sinuses was just about gone, the tooth and gum no longer hurt except a tiny bit and I was about to chance the appointment with the dentist when the dental assistant sent me a text asking me to come in today since she knew I was not at work (the dental assistant just happens to be my wife). So there I was in the dentist's chair today being told that the food getting stuck has not caused an infection in my gums, nor had the tooth ache or jaw pain been caused by an infection and yet I was having the tooth she had already replaced the filling in drilled again to have the new filling replaced. It's all convoluted and I am sure that I had an infection in my gums and tooth while the dentist disagrees but the end result is that I am feeling better. After 4 days of antibiotics the infection seems to have cleared up, the tooth seems not have food getting stuck since she redid the filling again today, I am sick of seeing doctors and I will probably show up at work tomorrow. While a bad day fishing (or hunting or shooting) beats a good day at work, a crappy day at works beats spending the day at the doctor's (or dentist's) office.

I Don't See Anything Unattractive...

...at least when it comes to the AK (or is that a WASR 10). Anyway, the rifle looks fine to me, in fact I think they look better than an AR. As for the woman, there was time I would not have slammed the door in her face but now I am married and decrepit. Oh well, regardless of my marital status and my physical condition, she is certainly more attractive than many women I have seen before her regardless of the hair. As is often said here in NY (as a compliment although, many from other parts of the country seem to think it some sort of a complaint): She's not bad at all.

Liberal Leftists Claimed George W. Bush Was In Essence Corrupt...

...and claimed he had less than ethical contracts with oil companies and thus increased the price of oil here, that he had less than ethical dealings with companies that had military contracts and thus made money off of that while our troops suffered, and that he was pretty much the most unethical budget raising president we had ever had up until his presidency. The leftists never stopped screaming about it, it was virtually constantly in the news throughout his term and even years after his presidency.

Since Obama has been in office the debt has about doubled (or more) from when Bush was president, oil prices while down recently remained above what they were when Bush left office, I think for at least 4-5 years, and they are still fairly high (you will note they only fell drastically once the 2016 campaigns launched), and now (among other things) we have another scandal, of which there have been many under Obama, that trumps many of the others at least when it comes to finances. It has been reported that the Department of Defense spent $43,000,000.00 (forty three million dollars of tax payer dollars paid by U.S. Citizens and legal resident aliens) to build a gas station in Afghanistan. It reportedly should have cost no more than $500,000.00 (five hundred thousand dollars). More here. 

So tell me, why aren't the leftists bashing Obama, protesting his presidency and screaming about this in the media? On the other hand, why are any of us tolerating this crap under this administration! I would think that the original colonists would have revolted by now had this happened back then. The least we could do is demand his impeachment if this is true.
