Below is my new rather pricey 'toy'. Snoring is not the primary issue for me but obstructive sleep apnea and related fatigue and metabolism problems are.
From
klearway
'Klearway™ is a fully-adjustable oral appliance used for the treatment or snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Fabricated of thermoactive acrylic, KlearwayTM becomes pliable for easy insertion and confirms securely to the dentition for an excellent fit while significantly decreasing soft tissue and tooth discomfort. Small increments of forward lower jaw advancement are initiated by the patient under the direction of a dentist and this helps avoid rapid jaw movements that can cause significant patient discomfort. Once warmed under hot water and inserted, the acrylic resin hardens as it cools to body temperature and firmly affixes itself to both arches. Lateral and vertical jaw movement is permitted which enables the patent to yawn, swallow, and drink water without dislodging the appliance.
THE KLEARWAY™ APPLIANCE FOR THE TREATMENT OF SNORING AND OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA'
I have had my tonsils and uvula removed with the UPPP surgery.
From
uppp
'The most common surgery for sleep apnea is the uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, or UPPP procedure, which is intended to enlarge the airway by removing or shortening the uvula and removing the tonsils and adenoids...'
I have had nasal reconstruction and tip reduction.
I have used CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) for a year, and will never use it again.
Anyone want to buy an almost brand new CPAP machine in excellent condition?
I just could never enjoy that suffocating feeling.
'You've lost that suffocating' feeling, Whoa, that suffocating' feeling, You've lost that suffocating' feeling, Now it's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh.'
The main purpose of my Klearway jaw appliance is to move my jaw forward at night.
But since it was so expensive, if you have any reasonable and clean secondary purpose, preferably satirical and humourous, please comment.
1. I reason I could use it as a martial arts mouthguard if I am ever attacked on the streets of Maple Ditch while going for a walk.
2. I could dress up with the Klearway device and go out on Halloween as some kind of ridiculous vampire, or as a horrified dental patient.
3.I could learn how to be a ventriloquist, and use the Klearway device in some kind of creepy show on You Tube.
Theological satire and my comments
Good point, Snoopy. I am a child of God first and foremost. I may learn a lot and pray God will guide me in the truth, but I always need to remain open-minded.
Yes, please provide me with some blog traffic and comments. Cheers. A near mint copy of Silver Surfer #4 (1969) would be nice as well. Thanks.;)
Hmm, how twenty-first century in thought. What is next, will you direct your prayers toward the doll?
This lady needs some theological training and spiritual guidance. May I suggest reading your Bible and getting a hold of some good lexicons and commentaries. Do not do your theology from the magazines that have horoscopes at the check out lines.
I would like to drop atheists and agnostics from being ministers in Christian churches.
Yes, please check out my blogs satire and theology and thekingpin68 while you are at it. I dare you to leave a comment during the service. Even I would not do that!
They follow Christ as long as they can reinterpret him when necessary to maintain their worldview and religious philosophy. Lord forbid they are willing to take a contextual look at Scripture and allow God to speak for himself through his chosen scribes.
Excellent. Ephesians 2: 8-10:
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, that no one should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:8-10, NASB).
If you would like a more academic theological article please click on thekingpin68 on the right side of the blog. I do write academic articles on this blog as well sometimes and both blogs feature philosophical theology.

Friday funnies, thanks Mom.
Jeff sent me some pictures of human contact with a Great White shark. Thanks, Jeff.
This is one that has been on the web since 2001.
