A Lens or a Tooth?
Oct 27, 2015 10:08:54 #
I went to the dentist this morning to see what he could do about a failed repair he made three weeks ago - not much. I can leave it as it is or spend $1,000 for a crown. When I think about how many cameras and lenses are available for $1,000, it makes my decision to leave the tooth alone easier to bear.
I tried ebay, and there's lots available, but installation would be tricky. :D

My brother just got 7 crowns done. Looks great but $7,000.00
I lost my last lower molar and it's hard chewing with 7 lower teeth in front. Seems I swallow most meals in chucks.
Going to check on lower implants with or without removing the last lowers of my own.

Yes, it is. Those are temporary crowns on ebay, but with so many for such a low price, I could keep replacing them. :D

It's not all it's cracked up to be. It took a lot of persuasion to get my neighbor to drop the lawsuit against me. :D

Lot's of funny replies to this one. Thanks for the morning laugh. I have had 7 root canals, with caps, plus two implants. I think of having 9 teeth missing as the alternative, but then I would own the D810 or 5dsR. I have a Canon 53MKIII now, but will be upgrading soon. I keep reading good things about the D810, and have watched a bunch of You Tube comparisons. But then I have about 10 lenses for Canon. Tough call, damn the teeth though.
