Now I told you before, didn't I, that these dentures got passed around quite a bit. Folks, it's like this. When you're poor and you're just poor white folk from the hills of Pennsylvania, actually Susquehanna County to be exact, you can afford only one set of dentures. So, they get passed around. Pictured here is our grandson, Daniel, now four years older and much improved in looks, and also our granddaughter, Alesha, likewise four years older and likewise much improved in looks. Posted earlier, Suzanne, the youngest of our three granddaughters and now four years later, she has grown new teeth and doesn't need the dentures. She too, along with Erika, who refused the dentures, and all the rest is a truly beautiful child. But why, you ask, would children need dentures. Well, is our part of the country when you don't brush your tooth, it might fall out. You said "tooth" don't you mean teeth? Nope, I told you we were from the hill country of Pennsylvania. Figure it out.

How do you know you're in a room of 32 rednecks? Because there's a full set of teeth among them!

This poor boy really does have dental work being done. Poor boy currently hates his dentist. She is trying to do a year's worth of work in two months, so he has rubber bands holding his braces in place in three different places in his mouth. Is he happy? Can he see the completed picture? Does he send love notes to his dentist? If she can do the work in 3 months, why don't dentists always do it that quickly?
