ack! Where is my warranty?

so randomly last night as I was quietly enjoying dinner at my friend Larry's, I bit into something hard.

"?????", I thought.

I spat put the offending object and closely inspected said object. As far as I could tell, it was triangularly shaped and was about 2 mm on each side. Being on the middle of watching a movie (a quality Pixar film called "Incredibles"), I figured it was either a part of anubpopped corn kernel or a piece of someone else's fingernail. And then I continued to enjoy themovie and promptly forgot about the "foreign" object.

The next day during lunch, I noticed that one side of my tongue kept feeling like it was being cut. I felt around mymoith with my finger and was greeted with the warm wonderful feel of a sharp Black Mtn crimper. In my mouth. At this point alarm bells started going off in my he'd and "nice" was no longer applied to the words "crimper in my mouth".

so here I am now, sitting in the dentist's office, waitng to get it checked out. Of course, I'm not sure how hard checking it will be - the chip in my lower wisdom tooth is so big, it's the size of a chasm you could rappel into with caving gear.
