Sauerkraut,

The last time I was at my Ortho, they had an Easter Basket full of eggs. After they finished toturing me, I got to pick an egg and select the prize. They must have already given away the ZR1 Corvette because all I win was a box of floss. :wink:

You absolutely get a prize, sauerkraut. Although I can't guarantee it won't be floss.... ;)

Funny you should both say that. My banding appointment, when it finally came, was a bit of an ordeal and lasted 3 hours. At the end of it the technician told me I deserved a reward after all I'd had to put up with. She reached into the drawer, and, with a flourish, produced ... two packets of floss :lol:
