Art or no repect for the dead? + Dentist
I might have considered seeing it, until I saw the 20/20 report:
Perhaps if they could prove that the people had donated their bodies exhibits like this one might seem interesting. But the 20/20 report showing that some might be executed Chinese prisoners makes me ill. If you donate your body to the exhibit that's one thing. But I dunno, because my dad died so young I have such a great respect for the dead that anything that disrespects them makes me ill. The thought of say someone vandalizing a grave makes me beyond angry and this falls into that category.
Dentist:
FYI - it's really hard to drink, even from a straw, with NUMB LIPS! Seriously numbing meds are like some sort of miracle they keep my lips numb for hours but the filling and cleaning I could feel. How that works I'll never know. I'm a great and horrible dental patient both. I lay in the chair when I really want to bolt up and run out as soon as I feel something = good but instead my natural instinct = if I feel something in my mouth then I start to close it (not all of the way just enough to not comply with the dentist open wide, wider, good commands). So front filling = done. Deep cleaning = done. Root canal scheduled for March 1st and I'm already whimpering because I know it's gonna be horrific though Brian says it won't be nearly as bad as I think and claims it won't take as long as today did. Apparently I need a couple of more fillings in the back we didn't really discuss or budget for last time. But we're putting those off as they're in the back and not in the budget and my dentist office is really good about realizing that people on a budget need to prioritize what work is most important and not lecturing on the rest.

Also, the reason your lips are numb but you can still feel stuff is that the dental work vibrates your jaw bones which triggers sensations from nerves in the bones and far away from your mouth. You lips stay numb for some long cause they really numb that area and then hope the medicine spreads to the areas they can't reach, which it does, just not perfectly.
Ahh interesting. I had no idea the medication was more of a we hope it helps thing. I figured it somehow actually got to those nerves. Well it helps some I'm sure but it definitely works best on the lips it seems heh.
