COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #29

[Dan Todd]

Dr. Bob,

Ken Davis was going on about his daughter and son-in-law taking his first grandchild to Tennessee - (rotten children anyway).

He went on to say that there was an overabundance of bugs in Tennessee.

Then Ken said that he once saw a moth near a lightbulb in Denver - but that was just before the bug emigrated to Tennessee - oh by the way - Ken and his wife moved to Tennessee - just to be near their granddaughter!

Video is called "Ken Davis and Friends" Funny!

 

[Dan Todd]

I hate the Atlanta Braves - just thought you were all dying to know that!

 

[Dan Todd]

Diane,

Poor girl - hates summer and hot days - Nick doesn't do well with bugs!

Loves Baptists - and snow!

She lives in Georgia!

I guess you are chosing Baptists, hot summer days and bugs over snow over liberals, fewer bugs, and snow.

Tough choice!

Dan - just a teasing!

 

[Dan Todd]

Dr. Bob,

How many people actually live in the upper mid-west?

 

[MHeath]

Hi Dan..

Well.. hope I don't bum anybody out! But my husband deals with depression (since I met him 5 years ago) has diabetes, and he's also not a believer. So you can imagine how difficult it is to co-habitate. He's also 21 years older than I am, but we've had four children in the last four years and I don't think he'll ever retire! lol. So there ya go. hehe.

WOW Dan! You've outdone yourself. Five posts in a row! Don't push the envelope!

I am going to start the car and let it warm up a bit before I go back to the corner. Hubby had to break ice loose to get my car door open this morning before he left for work!

It's so nice to have a man around the house. Tra la la...

That I am! You can take a PILL to deal with bugs and turn on the air conditioner to deal with heat! I miss the snow but I love being where Baptists abound!

So no one worries, the dentist just called and had to change Nick's cleaning to tomorrow morning. The office is almost 1 1/2 hours from here so we'll be gone from early a.m. til probably 1:00. Praise the Lord, Jim can take us because I'm terrified of the Atlanta traffic!

 

[blackbird]

Sooooooooo!!!! Nick has to be at the dentist's office tomorrow, huh??????? And the receptionist probably filled you in on the idea of "Its just a routine teeth cleanin', ma'm!!!"

Weeeeeeeeeel, Dr. Blackbird has heard the receptionist explain that over and over and over and over again---what starts OUT as a simple routine----turns into fillin's, cavities, bridge work, crowns, Gengivitus and all of those other itus things!!!

But tell Nick don't worry---the Rapture COULD possibly interfere with his dentist plans---Boy, oh, Boy! I'll take that any day over the dentist office!!!

Your Southern Baptist preachin', dentist story tellin' buddy,
Blackbird

 

[dianetavegia]

Nick was just there 1 1/2 months ago and had another 'baby' root canal. He had full x-rays that day so not concerned. However... I have 2 planned visits this month (one for a cleaning and one to replace a temp. filling in a deep cavity they found 6 months ago) and another cavity I've been waiting 6 months for an opening for a filling. I really do work hard on caring for my teeth and am so surprised I have such troubles! I brush after EVERY meal and use a water jet cleaner several times a day. I use flouride rinse too! Oh well!

How's Blackbird's family and that flu??

5 traditional states in the UPPER Mid-West are:

North Dakota 642,000
South Dakota 755,000
Minnesota 4,920,000
Iowa 2,925,000
Wisconsin 5,363,000

Add in states usually "lumped" with them -
Montana 902,000
Wyoming 493,000
Nebraska 1,712,000

So the entire region (1/5 of the US) is 17,712,000 people, or about 5% of the US population!

Think "Florida" in about the same # of people!

 

[dianetavegia]

Atlanta has 4,270,200 people (approx.) and it's over 50% women. The average age is 33.

No wonder we feel crowded!

Wyoming is 97,815 square miles, with a population density of 5.1 people in each square mile.

Georgia is 59,400 square miles, with a population density of 401 people in each square mile.

That is obscene.

Yep and more Baptist Churches than gas stations and banks! LOL

Illinois has a lot of people too, but half of them live in Chicago!

I am going to watch some TV before I go to bed.

Pleasant dreams all!

 

[dianetavegia]

I'm heading off too. Got to be out of here early for Nick's dental appointment so might not say hello before afternoon.

[computerjunkie]

Texas is big and has a lot of people!!

[Jim1999]

There is a story about the Texan millionaire who was bragging to an Alberta cattleman, that he had enough wealth to build a fence straight across all of Canada, ten feet high. He stood back and grinned. The Albertan cattleman smiled, and said, Tell you what. You build it, and if I like it, I'll buy it.

Cheers,

Jim

It had to do with the topic of everything's BIG in Texas.
