i'm growing my grill

last week i went to the dentist again, this time to get a temporary crown. my dentist preferred it using gold. i asked him if he might consider something a little less gold. he says gold works great. i asked him if he might considered something that wasn't, you know, gold. he said that the gold holds up better. i sat momentarily and thought.

then i asked him if there wasn't something less....gold.

he said no.
