WHEN THE HSR WAS ONLY THREE AND A HALF, HIS MOM PUT HIM ON A T-BALL TEAM AT THE LOCAL PARK, TO GIVE HIM SOMETHING TO DO AND FOR HIM TO SOCIALIZE MORE WITH THE OTHER VIRTUAL KIDS, SO THE PRACTICE WAS OKAY A COUPLE OF TIMES, BUT EVERY TIME THE HSR CAME UP TO BAT HE WOULD STARE OFF BEYOND THE PITCHER’S MOUND AS IF THERE WAS SOMETHING OUT THERE CALLING FOR HIS ATTENTION, AND THE COACH, AND HIS TEAMMATES WOULD ALL SHOUT, “HIT THE BALL, AND RUN,” BUT HIS MOM DIDN’T JOIN IN BECAUSE SHE KNEW THAT HE WAS REALLY DAYDREAMING ABOUT HIS NEXT BIG THING, BUT A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON GAME DAY, WHEN IT WAS HIS TURN, HE SUDDENLY TOOK SUCH A MIGHTY SWING, THAT, ALTHOUGH HE MISSED THE BALL, THE MOMENTUM SWUNG HIM AROUND IN A CIRCLE, AND SINCE THE BAT WAS STILL REACHING OUT, WHEN HE FINISHED SPINNING AROUND, THE BAT HIT THE BALL, AND THE BALL BARELY SAILED OVER THIRD BASE, SO THE KIDS WERE SCRAMBLING WITH THEIR LITTLE SELVES, AND RETRIEVED THE BALL AND ONE KID THREW IT TO FIRST BASE, BUT IT SAILED OVER THE FIRST BASEMAN’S HEAD, SO THE YOUNG HSR HIGHTAILED IT TO SECOND, AND THE FIRST BASE MAN FINALLY GOT THE BALL AND THREW IT TO SECOND, BUT THE BALL BOUNCED THROUGH THE LEGS OF THE SECOND BASEMAN, SO THE HSR RAN TO THIRD WITH HIS SHORT CUTE STEPS, ALMOST FALLING HERE AND THERE, BUT A BIG AND BURLY SHORT STOP WAS BLOCKING HIS WAY, SO THE HSR ACTED LIKE A BASKETBALL PLAYER, AND SPUN AROUND RIGHT ALONG THE SIDE OF THE SHORTSTOP WITH A MICHAEL JORDAN EFFORTLESSNESS, AND, MEANWHILE, THE BALL SAILED INTO THIRD WITH TWO BOUNCES, BUT WHEN IT BOUNCED THE SECOND TIME, IT HIT A SMALL ROCK, AND DID A “BAD HOP,” MAKING THE BALL JUMP OVER THE THIRD BASEMAN’S HEAD AND INTO THE STANDS, BUT THE HSR STOPPED AND STAYED AT THIRD, AND EVERYONE WAS YELLING TO HIM TO “RUN HOME, QUICKLY,” BUT THE HSR GOT THE WRONG IDEA AND HE STARTED RUNNING TO HIS HOUSE, BUT HIS MOM, WHO KNEW THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, QUIETLY MOVED TO THE THIRD BASE AREA WHILE ALL OF THIS COMMOTION WAS GOING ON, AND TOLD THE PASSING TODDLER HSR, WHO WAS PANTING AND SWEATING REALLY HARD BY NOW, TO RUN TO “THAT HOME,” HOME PLATE, SO HE TOOK OFF RUNNING TO HOME PLATE, AND THE BALL SAILED ON IN, AND HSR HOPPED IN THE AIR AND ASSUMED A CLASSIC SLIDE-IN POSTURE, JUST AS HE WAS TAUGHT, AND THERE WAS A BIG MIGHTY CLOUD OF DUST WHICH BLOCKED EVERYONE’S VIEW, INCLUDING THE REFEREE’S, BUT TWO THINGS CAME OUT OF THAT BIG DUST UP, THE BALL ROLLED OUT TO THE SIDE, AND THE HSR, KEPT RUNNING, ALL THE WAY TO HIS REAL HOME, WITH HIS MOTHER CHASING HIM, and your “my mind was off on a tangent, so can you repeat all of what you just said?” smile, just found a mint-condition 1909 T206 Honus Wagner Rookie Card in the back of the small framed picture of Grandma and Grandpa by chance!
“Help others to become more happy, and you will become more joyous in return!”
In case you didn’t know…
…Your mouth is your biggest activating connection to the world!…
…from the moment you are born…you start stuffing things into it!
From speaking to eating to breathing to smiling to flirting to loving…the mouth is “The Place!”
We are, early on, given the chance to acquire a meticulous mouthful of teeth—and it’s up to us, with the help of Modern Dentistry, to keep it that way!
And from the Almighty Mouth springs forth the inimitable, universal, and mystery-shrouded smile, which is at once an upfront display of the crushing and masticating power of the teeth, and which is also forcibly linked to the alluring emotional unknown of the play of the appropriately draping lips.
Sure, we smile when we are happy, but not all smiles are connected with good, after all, as said here before, “A sincere smile is just a few millimeters away from an evil sneer!”
So the mouth is a part of our anatomy that is chock-full of activity, responsibility, and at times, uncertainty!
It really is a windowy outlet and inlet to our expressive worlds!
And just like our hair and skin, our mouths need frequent care and maintenance, with some people more high-maintenance than others, depending upon the demands of the individual…
People that realize the potency and commanding presence that a bright set of chops generates…
…and meticulously keep things in tip-top shape, including their immaculate attire and mannerisms are known as…
…dentrosexuals…
…which is more than just an urban metrosexual with a nice smile…
…they live, and enjoy a zen-like, and harmonic, smile-centered lifestyle!
And their best friend is—you guessed it—the Dentist!
And most of them refer to their Dentist as their “Dental Stylist ala Extraordinaire!”
Yes, we Dental Stylists, with growing numbers of dentrosexuals in our patient bases, have our work cut out for us…
But we depend on our patients to see us periodically, and do the daily, heavy lifting of…
…flossing, brushing and rinsing at home!
Your smile’s Longevity Factor (LF) will be significantly clinically elevated!
So, take care of your smile, and it will stand up and bite for you!
May you have many…see your smile care experts at least twice a year, but don’t make it two days in a row (tee-hee-hee!)…they say that this is a dog-eat–dog world, but, just how do dogs eat other dogs—with the all-important, wildy-gnashing, canine-rich mouth, of course…I don’t care if it is the World Series, when I go to a baseball game, I want to sit in the shade!…smiles!
