Organization: STORM Project Office, NCAR, Boulder
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 1992 18:10:57 GMT

Whenever I brush my teeth, I brush them twice.
My mouth just doesn't feel clean if I only brush
them once. I brush both my top and bottom teeth
and my gums each time. However, the first time I
place a priority on getting the toothpaste on my
top teeth and gums, and the second time the priority
is on the bottom. I also occassionally brush my
tongue. It really is a cursory brushing, because
it makes me gag. The only reason I do it all is
because once when I was waiting at the dentist's
office, I saw a Peanuts cartoon. Snoopy and Charlie
Brown were brushing their teeth. Snoopy was using
Lucy's toothbrush. Charlie Brown was reading aloud
from some book about how to brush properly, and it
said that you should also brush your tongue. So
Snoopy did, and in graphic detail. Then Lucy walked
in, and you can imagine the commotion that occurred
next!

Wow, pretty impressive, only 18 and has his pilot's license already.
With all of the training & flying hours involved, he must have started

Well, it just seemed to me that if Gypsy needed a title for her car, and if
the folks with the most-prized titles (Princess, Prince, etc.) were having
such a tough time keeping decorum for their positions and clothing on their
body, maybe something could be worked out.

Sure, there's some confusion between royalty and peerage- that's why I asked
for advice from somebody w/ a .UK in their address.

Look, if you want complete unabiguity, you're in the wrong froup.
