National Fresh Breath Day 2022
I am what is known as a 'hygiene freak'.This label is applied to those of us who feel the need to bathe at the drop of a hat, utilize personal maintenance routines above and beyond the requirements of most others, and generally avoid that which would pollute that temple which is their bodies.
Me, I try to brush my teeth at least once a day and I debride with hydrogen peroxide most days.
I do this in the shower and the consequence of this practice is a white moustach and beard.

That feeling that someone releases flatus from the wrong orifice.
Perhaps that sewer mouth is more actual than figurative.
That nasty atmosphere which envelops the faces of certain individuals for reasons which may be known or mysterious.
Today is National Fresh Breath Day.
It comes around each August 6 annually in an effort to promote oral hygiene and health habits.
As Anthony Michael Hall said so eloquently in the movie Sixteen Candles back in 1984 ... if I may paraphrase, some of us consider fresh breath to be a priority.
I was 29 then and it still holds true.
Happy National Fresh Breath Day. Now brush those teeth and gargle.
