One of my favorite movies is Quiz Show which retold the story of Charles Van Doren’s notorious championship on the game show Twenty-One. If you haven’t seen the movie (where have you been??), add it to your Netflix queue right now. Van Doren published his side of the story on the The New Yorker – click here to read it.
Why do doctors make such bad entrepreneurs? The Amateur Economist discusses the topic – click here to read it. As you read it, substitute “dentist” for “doctor” and see how it flows.
Dr. Collins recently sent me some products to try out – a few of the items came with me to Chicago recently. I wanted to tell you about two of them – the All-White Toothpaste and the Interdental Cleaners. I’m loving the toothpaste since it has xylitol in it – my new favorite ingredient. Remember a few days ago how I said that Emdogain is considered by many to be a periodontal miracle? Judging from what I’ve read and heard about xylitol, it falls into the same dental “manna from heaven” category. The taste is good and I think it’s hiding the effects of my Diet Coke addiction pretty well.
The Interdental Cleaners travel with me. I have pretty tight contacts so I find myself using them often while on the road. My Hydro Floss doesn’t fit in my purse and that’s okay – these little guys work out great. Give them a try.
