      Why do people come to the door peddling bibles? THIS IS THE BIBLE BELT - everybody has at least one already.

            That sucks. You'd think people would have gotten out of their gossiping phase while in high school.

              Nope. This never ends. A Navy ship, particularly on deployment? Huge gossip machine. Whenever you put people into a confined space/area, with limited access to the outside world, and limited forms of entertainment, (and I'm pretty sure a remote mining camp is like a Navy ship in this) the only thing left to do is talk..............and nothing is more entertaining than people drama (because politics and religion get old after a while, and not everyone wants to talk about sex or sports).

                In the end it's usually pretty harmless, though, so I don't usually worry about it

                  ^This.

                  I'd add that talking about people is the lowest common denominator, really. Most other topics for discussion usually involve some effort, or at least thought. Generally speaking, gossipers simply stay away from the heavy topics.

                  IMO, as much as I detest the shit, it probably is a decent escape from the (WTF is the word??) labor and thought in those types of situations. I just prefer to do my own thinking. Which involves having original thought in the first place.

                  Then, of course, there's always the fun part of actually causing people to gossip. You know? Giving them something to talk about? I've been known to start a scandal or two, just to see how far the gossip ring will take my behavior and run with it. Does that make me evil?


                  And, yes. I know: I'm off topic as hell. Sue me.

                        Sounds like it's going to wind up being more of a mining operation than a tooth pull by the time you get there Bet it'll be such a relief once it's finally out, though.

                          That just sent chills down my spine.

                            What's really fun with broken teeth is that sometimes, even after the remains are pulled out, little chips and chunks will work their way out of the socket & healing gum for weeks afterwards. It's like you're teething all over again.

                                Is it possible to go "postal" in a bowling alley? Or is that reserved for just the Post Office? Hmm.
