Well, This Explains a Lot About My Daughter

Teeth, they're the other brain:

When your dentist pulls an aching tooth he could be yanking out some of your memory at the same time, according to a new Swedish study to be presented in Stockholm on Friday.

"Teeth appear to be of the utmost importance to our memories," said Jan Bergdahl, an associate psychology professor at the Umeaa University in northern Sweden, a dentist and one of the authors of the study.

So that's why we keep having to tell Olivia no time and again. She really isn't a short, willful, obscenely cute monster bent on world domination. Or, at least "giant-bucket-of-cheese-puffs" domination. Trust me, to her they're nearly the same thing.

So, all I have to do is wait until she gets all her teeth in, and we'll have a content and obedient child. Right?

RIGHT???

Hmm...

Where is the research for online consumption by the masses? I would love to read how/why they came to this conclusion. Teeth having to do with the production and stimulation of neurons and synatpses is a new approach. I don't buy it, but would love to read their papers.

okay - if you study toothless people, is it possible that they're actually studying homeless whinos, people from kentucky or arkansas, and other people already noted to have other problems? if you ask me, living in arkansas already seems to have affected Scott's memory - and he still appears to have teeth.

flawed study.
