Saw a bunch of crap setting on the curb in front of a dentist office so I had to stop and take a peek.
Scored a box full (probably 70 sets) of cast of peoples teeth. My old lady just rolled her eyes.

    Only if they had some marking identifying the patient.

    But why in the world would one want them, anyway?:surprised:

    Well maybe the word "scored" was not the word to use.

    Judging by the completed auctions on Ebay I should be able to do some updates to a pair of 3.1's just for picking up a box, snapping a few pics, and typing a few words.......sounds like fun.

    You are a very disturbed man.

    Thank you!:loneranger:

    As you know John, in the words of Mojo Nixon:

    When I look out into your eyes out there,
    When I look out into your faces,

    Cause Elvis is a perfect being.
    We are all moving in perfect peace and harmony towards Elvisness

    "Save me, Elvis!"
    "Make me be born again
    in the perfect Elvis light"
