   When it comes to caring for my teeth, I don’t pray (actually, I don’t pray at all, but that’s a different subject). I just try to listen that Voice from Above — my dentist!

   What shocks and disgusts me is the recent commercials I’ve seen for it, marketing it to 40-year-olds.

   Andy, you should know better — any time she isn’t frowning at you, it has to be because she can’t. Maybe you should try one of these instead:

   “Hello, Missus. Flo said you had Botox — didn’t quite get all the wrinkles out, did it?”

   “Hello, Missus. Flo said you had Botox; hope you don’t have any of those deadly side effects the commercials warn about.”

   “Hello, Missus. Flo said you had Botox — why would a woman with your natural beauty even think she needed that?”

   (If you’re wondering, that last one is intended to cause her to keel over from shock.)

   I have terrifying dreams of being chased by the unhealthy horrors of a KFC meal. But my wife and I still enjoy it, so we indulge ourselves about three times a year.

   Great tribute! And glad to see there are so many Don Martin fans out there.

   I’m not yet retired, but I am getting to the age where I sometimes find myself identifying more with Uncle Ted than with Brutus. This is one of those occasions.

   I have one volume, I found it at a thrift store. Maybe one day I’ll come across the other.

   I remember that from an episode of Welcome Back, Kotter. He groans as he’s getting out of bed one morning and then moans, “Oh no! That’s my father’s noise!” Very memorable line, and one that I use occasionally as I get older.

   Nosy little snoop, aren’t you?

   Just kidding, I recognize the song lyric.

    While my entries sometimes deal with my feelings about things going on in my life — such as the example I cited above — often they simply take the form of record keeping. Sometimes I do nothing more than write a few sentences about the events of my day. I have found it useful to be able to refer back when a question arises about when something took place (keeping my journals in Word documents makes searching a lot easier, by the way). As for their ultimate disposition, guess I’ll leave that to my kids to figure out once I’m gone.
