| In the category of "be careful what you wish for...," I was just saying the other day that I would rather spend an afternoon writhing in pain in the dentist's chair than hear another word about the deficit, climate change, or "man-made disasters." Sure enough, the next day my dentist called to inform me that my lower, right wisdom tooth had to come out. This time the dentist warned me that "this may hurt just a little bit." He called it a surgical extraction of the lower, right wisdom tooth. I thought of it as an amputation of a loyal and long-time body appendage.

Please help us by buying stuff through our link to Amazon.com:
| The BBHQ Feature Album is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)," by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert in 2003, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you? |

The BBHQ Feature Book is
"The 5000 Year Leap," by
W. Cleon Skousen. The title does not
adequately identify the content, though the concept of the 5,000 year
leap is astounding. The subtitle, Principles of Freedom 101, is
much more applicable to the subject. This book carefully and clearly
summarizes the thinking of the brilliant founding fathers of our country,
the ideas behind the "miracle that changed the world."
