Restaurant Fast Food - it's not like grandma used to make
The growth of restaurant fast food cannot be denied. It seems that fast food places are opening up almost on every corner. It's not unusual to see a McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Popeye's Chicken, Del Taco, a Burger King and several others all within a block or two of each other.
I Love Dental Floss - Dentists love Dental Floss and why you should too!
Everytime I go in to see the dentist for that annual cleaning I hear the same thing. "You only need to floss the ones that you want to keep" I think it's the joke of the industry and everyone uses it. Still, there's something very important in the statement. You see, I'm the guy that simply loves to floss my teeth. In the car, at home watching television, and of course every evening after a good and thorough brushing.
Head Lice Containment
Don't let the idea of head lice paralyze you. Although they're very prevalent, and most kids will get them at some point in their lives, lice aren't caused by being dirty.

It also allows family members to play the "he has your uncle Henry's nose" and her mother's eyes" type games. It never ceases to amaze me how people can see other people in a newborn whose features are still moving into shape from the birth.
