During the report, they featured a classic clip from the movie "Marathon Man" where he played a crazy Nazi dentist who was drilling Dustin Hoffman's teeth. Listening to the actors and the drill, I could actually smell the burning odor of freshly drilled teeth! Then I realized I was driving by Ricardo's Restaurant and they were having their outdoor BBQ Rib Sale.
But I would still have smelled the burning odor even if I hadn't been driving by Ricardo's. He was that great of an actor.

Gasp! You listen to NPR?!?!
I must have been getting bad reception on all the other stations that day.
I confess, I listen to NPR more than occasionally (though I wouldn't say quite regularly) and heard that very report!
The funny thing is the new electric pencil sharpener I bought sounds oddly like an oversized dental drill. I always shudder when the kids use it.
Ouch! Pentamom, have you ever considered mechanical pencils?!
