Megan Willome says
Lyla, what will you do next?
L. L. Barkat says
Is that mint floss? Because if it is, I’m more likely to go ahead and use it.
Maureen Doallas says
Is it the thin kind or the thicker stuff that’s like tape? Is it tensile? And brand. . . is it “green” – that is, does it come from a certain Burt or maybe Tom in Maine?
L. L. Barkat says
If it’s tensile, will that improve my grammar? 😉
Lyla Lindquist says
Megan, help me. I’m in too deep… Throw me a line of dental floss…
Matthew Kreider says
Sometimes one simply needs to call the dentist. 🙂
Monica Sharman says
Ouch, that looks painful. 🙂 But, anything to get rid of the plaque and avoid cavities & halitosis.
laura says
OH! MY! This is just…perfect. Grinning ear to ear here. Sure is good medicine.
Bill Vriesema says
Good for writers and poets as it produces a new line of thought.
Actually, this is how the string theory was thought up.
Lyla Lindquist says
I’ve heard L.L. has some things to say about string theory…
L. L. Barkat says
Ha! You’ve got a memory like a steel trap, Lyla. How do you get it open for cleaning day? 😉
Lyla Lindquist says
Actually, I have to credit Jennifer Lee for that one. She linked Dan King interview in another conversation recently where string cheese — I mean string theory — made an appearance.
(And, for real, I typed string cheese. I noticed and decided not to cover my slip.)
L. L. Barkat says
Love it. You may be interested to know that I had a cheese crown when I worked with that Team. I believe it was bestowed by Dan King. Kind of went nicely with the title Laura Boggess gave me… Spam Queen.
Hmmm. I need some new food-royalty monikers that are more sophisticated. Or at least a little healthier 🙂
Monica Sharman says
Lyla, it was appropriate that you didn’t delete the “cheese” in a comment that mentioned Jennifer. You know her and her old-fashioned typewriter. 🙂
