For centuries people have described phenomena they don’t understand “God.” We’re making progress.

The only thing I can come up with is that the etymology of “delicious” in “Red Delicious” is from English (arcane) meaning flavorless sand rock or something similar. (Although I remember reading that Red Delicious apples are more nutritious than other varieties. Perhaps they just open some multivitamin capsules and inject them into each apple.) I personally haven’t eaten a single edible, let alone enjoyable, Red Delicious apple.

What about Lance Bass method? (These can’t be his real teeth… sheesh.)

Not a meme, but you’ll look like John Hammond from Jurassic Park when you dust this one off. (I can’t believe it’s been up for 24 years!)

Real Ultimate Power

I used Oral-B for years but switched to Sonicare a few years back and haven’t regretted it. I don’t have strong feelings about one necessarily being better than the other, but I think either is a big upgrade from manual brushing.

And I know this isn’t what you asked, but if I were to get a new brush now I would probably consider one from Suri. The amount of waste from toothbrushes of any kind is annoying, and I’m always trying to reduce my footprint where practical. Sorry for linking a site with a bunch of affiliate links, but apparently there are a range of different eco-friendlier electric toothbrushes and brush heads for both Oral-B and Philips (I’m not affiliated with any of these companies or this site): https://greenchoicelifestyle.com/eco-friendly-electric-toothbrushes/

Convince us. How many billions of dollars did you lose last quarter?

Typically when you make a manual payment on a mortgage it will give you a couple options, including “regular payment” and “principal only.” The former will go toward your next regular payment, so if your standard automatic payment is $1000 and you pay $2 manually, your next automatic draft would be $998.

Very important: make sure you put that $2 toward principal so that interest doesn’t accrue on it.

Kids these days are so spoiled with their designer sodium compounds. In my day we seasoned our food with elemental sodium and we were grateful (for a very short period).
