Isolation Thought

I was at the dentist today. It's in Parma, so they have a lot of old Euros come in for some fixing up. My God, this old-timer today must have been reliving Treblinka. It's bad enough you have to sit there with some foul-tasting impression maker in your mouth or hear those lovely words, "Hand me that crown reduction drill.", but then you have to listen to that crap. They told her to say aah, and I'll be damned if she didn't sing it. "Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!" "Lady, you know how to get to Carnegie Hall? Practice." Then it seemed they would get her to open her mouth and then she would say "Ow!" or "Stop hurting me." without them even doing anything. Any movement and she would start up. Like waving a hand in her face---"OW!". "Your bill today is..."---"Stop hurting me." God help us if she was there only for a checkup.
