GETTING MY SMILE BACK IN ALGODONES

IN MY YOUTH, I NEGLECTED MY TEETH.   Take my word for this fact:  It is soooo much easier (and cheaper) to take care of teeth than to repair them.
BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS;  It is possible to fix neglected teeth.  In the past 15years I have been repairing my teeth---in many ways--crowns, root canals, implants,  Apicoectomy ect.  I have done whatever it took and now my teeth are stable--firmly imbeded in my bones and functional. I show you the latest (and final?) chapter in my restorative drama.

AND OH YES!!! ONLY IN MEXICO COULD I POSSIBLY AFFORD TO HAVE THIS DONE.
My 4th implant has been healing (osseointegrating) for several months and now it's time to install the last tooth. That's Dr Edgar --one of Rubio's Associates putting the "capstone" on my 15 year "monument".

An  x-ray showing the final implant--ready for it's crown.

There's the unhappy gap that is ready to be filled.

And there's the final X-ray after it's installed.

My smile restored at last --I hug my expert, Dr Edgar.

Afterwards, I'm so happy that I ask for a few moments with the great doctor and founder himself: Carlos Rubio. (That's him on the right)
On the left is co-owner Dr Ernesto Montoya.
Not shown is the third partner Dr Cesar Monarrez.
I thanked them for their professionalism, told them I would feature them on my blogsite and that I would post their Website.

RANDY PHILOSOPHIZES:  Even though my work is all done, I continue to support this clinic because I know the suffering of so many people in America that just cannot afford American dentistry prices. The Rubio Clinic is the largest and most modern and high Tec in Algodones and charges  a fraction  of those in America.  Dr Rubio has personally installed more than 10,000 implants and is very likely the best in the world at that proceedure---often teaching American dentist.

I give this public thanks to the entire Rubio team (most of whom have worked on me at some point)
for their great work and my restored smile.

UPDATE:  I've just heard from the Rubio team--they've seen this blogpost and want me to tell you that there's been a breakthrough in implants---the new ones will osseointegrate in half the time as the old and Rubio Associates guarantees them for a LIFETIME.
All other work his office does is guaranteed for 4 years.
AND THEY SEEM SO HAPPY WITH THIS POST THAT THEY WILL GIVE A 15% DISCOUNT ON ANYONE WHO MENTIONS THIS POST.  JUST SAY RANDY SENT ME.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH HILLARY?

I'M GLAD YOU ASKED?  (I'll get back to my travels and other trivia as soon as I solve this puzzle for the nation)
HER INNER CHILD IS DEAD--OR ASLEEP!!
Let me make this clear to those of you who do not remember the Eric Berne discoveries of the 70's Transactional Analysis---"GAMES PEOPLE PLAY")-- wherein he showed that all of us have (at least)3 personality states that we show to the world--Our Parent, Our Adult and our Child.  Our Parent holds our wisdom, our Adult makes decisions and our Child contains all of our charm, energy, and Pizzaz in general--and it churns out a host of lively, fun,  imaginative possibilities that it presents to the Adult for  a decision. Our inner child is the puppy personality we were born with.

If a puppy is abused--- or otherwise damaged--as in cruel,misguided training--it loses its spirit---and forever thereafter it greets the world as a whipped dog--or worse--as a mean dog.

Hillary is as qualified as any of the contenders to be President and would no doubt guide the ship of state with wisdom--BUT HER PUPPY PERSONA IS DAMAGED--OR JUST DORMANT.

We voters want more from her--we want to LIKE our president.  We want a charming president. (Like Obama and Bill Clinton)

So I say to Hillary's advisors:  Help her see the truth of this.  Show her what aliveness and charm look like.   See if you can awaken her inner child.  If not, get her off the American stage.  It pains me to see her speak.  I swear, I was happy to see her soundly defeated by Bernie. (have her watch some of Nixon's speeches to see what  souless speaking looks like.)

Trump has an inner child fully awake and he is as entertaining as a puppy. And I say as a warning to myself and America: SO WAS HITLER.
