Enough with the contrived “hero” worship!

Posted on April 24, 2020 by The Dental Warrior

Today’s rant about the virtue-signaling about “healthcare and essential heroes.” UPDATE:  A friend saw my video and sent me this… very funny (and true, except the “veteran’s” reaction). Copyright protected by Digiprove © 2020 The Dental Warrior®

Posted on April 23, 2020 by The Dental Warrior

I Am at War

Posted on April 16, 2020 by The Dental Warrior

I first posted this on Facebook.  I’ve added to it a bit here.  And, I’ve since taken a break from Facebook.  It’s unfortunate that so many mistake their own cognitive dissonance, precipitated by thoughtful posts that contradict their prejudices, for … Continue reading →

And one last thing about the Corona hysteria…

Posted on March 16, 2020 by The Dental Warrior

I’ve stayed out of posting on social media like Facebook, though I’ve been lurking a bit.  It’s a good thing I’m staying out of the fray, as I’d likely make a lot of enemies by calling out people specifically. So, … Continue reading →

Posted on March 14, 2020 by The Dental Warrior

OK… So, by now most of us have witnessed the full-on panic in America.  It’s crazy.  If I’m honest, I will say that I don’t suffer fools well.  I admit that I am contemptuous of those who adopt the “herd … Continue reading →

Bad News = Opportunity

Is the Other Bracket About to Drop?

Posted on October 6, 2019 by The Dental Warrior

I wrote about DIY orthodontics not long ago.  While it felt good to “unload” my feelings about DIY orthodontics, I had to admit to myself that it was unlikely we (dentistry) would stop this multi-billion dollar juggernaut.  I figured it … Continue reading →

Posted on February 27, 2018 by The Dental Warrior

It’s been about 2 weeks since the heinous mass murder at the school in Parkland, Florida.  It’s about an hour away from where I live and only a few minutes from where my son played hockey 2 years ago. I’m … Continue reading →
