Back to the dentist
Hopefully a word of warning to future crown-toothed friends.
I suffered through a 2 hour dentist appointment yesterday. It was #2 of what was supposed to be three appointments for getting crown. #1 was to build the tooth back up. #2 (yesterday) was to prep the tooth, take molds for the crown and get a temporary. #3 is going to be applying the crown.
However,this morning, when I was brushing my teeth, the temporary popped off and though I tried to spit it into my hand, was nowhere to be found. Obviously down the drain. I was a little tired to actually think to close the drain first. Duh.
So tomorrow morning, it’s back to the dentist (for which I have no insurance) for another temporary crown. Oy vey!

Six INETA Speaker Events across the U.S. tonight
I just happened to be looking at the INETA “Upcoming Speaking Engagements” page and was struck by the fact that there are SIX events tonight!
| Bill Evjen | San Diego .NET User Group | 3/28/2006 |
| Bill Vaughn | KC .NET User Group | 3/28/2006 |
| Chris Menegay | Aggieland (Texas A&M Univeristy) .NET Developers | 3/28/2006 |

| Mike Amundsen | Cincinnati .NET User Group | 3/28/2006 |
It’s also amazing to see events scheduled all the way through to the end of 2006. It’s definitely hard to plan that far ahead, though I do have some INETA talks already scheduled in September!

Beginning robotics for grades one-three -huh?
There was an article in the local paper about Computer Camps offered by the South Burlington School District this summer.
Maybe it’s because I don’t have kids, but I was definitely a surprise to see a robotics class for 6 year olds!
Here’s the whole list which sounds like a blast! (No pun intended wrt the rocket tech class 🙂 )
