 Broken Toothpick
Last night I was picking my teeth with my last toothpick. Since gas
prices are approaching $5 a gallon, I only go to the store once a
month now. I always go on the first day of the month, unless it's a
Sunday or holiday, in which case I go on the next business day. I
still have to wait almost 3 weeks before I go to any store again.
.
I badly need my toothpicks. I was hoping this one would last until
the end of the month, but it must have been weak. Does anyone know a
surfire method to repair a toothpick?

I planned to post a photo of it, but the batteries are dead in my
digital camera, and I'll have to wait until the first of August to get
batteries.

Please help.

Get some floss. Next time buy an extra box of tooth picks, they don't
cost much. You can also go out back in the wood shed and make some tooth
picks with your axe.

Another way to save money is to get a bike if you don't have one.

When you use it, you use no gas, get some exercise, and cause a little
less pollution.

Have all your teeth pulled. You won't need any toothpicks.

You can save money by pulling only every second tooth. Also no need
for toothicks.

Simple. Go out to your garage and get your chainsaw. Then cut the
limb off the tree that your wife has been bugging your about. Cut a
piece out of the limb that is about 18" long. Put it in your oven and
bake on low for about 10 days to "kiln dry" it. Then put the limb on
your lathe. Then, custom make your own, NEW, toothpick. You'll be
quite happy with the results.
