How are the teeth, Jimbo?

Still waiting.

Got my full extractions and reconstructive bone surgery (double sinus lifts and 10 bone grafts) in March.

Next step is 16 titanium implants on November 10. Then after another healing time of at least 12 months, I'll get my actual zirconia teeth sometime next spring.

Some things, just like Bitcoin investments, are worth waiting for to do it right.

I had one sinus lift and multiple bone graft for only 3 implants and that has taken almost 2 years so just letting you know that 12 months sounds pretty conservative. Of course I was a smoker that caused multiple failures and issues. I eventually quit smoking and just had my last graft a month or so ago and if this one doesn't take will have to have this last implant removed and start over again.

It's quite the thing when one guy is holding a foot long chisel in your head while the other is smashing it with a sledge hammer. I would have thought things were a little more mechanized by now. When that sinus bone breaks you can really hear it! Cheesy

I will admit that Roger is a decent story teller; however, he does not really seem to understand the concept of "torture."

On the other hand, even if he can show that he has various human characteristics and he is empathetic, a lot of this can end up being a distraction (and an appeal to emotion) that takes us away from considering the narcissism that seems to motivate his ongoing involvement in bcash and using bcash as an ongoing attack on bitcoin and deceiving other people (especially dumb people and newbies.. and probably even traps some smarter people into such deceptions in their hopes that bcash will pump relative to bitcoin if they realize the difference) into believing that bcash is some kind of "bitcoin"

It was torturous listening to him, I got to he had to lay off workers before I just shut him off. I've been there for taking on the man as well and doubt he knows what torture is or how easily you can be found hung even in a "civilized" nation. He's lucky they didn't demonize him first.

It's a complete mystery how we're to get past the Swedes

You could always use this.
