Best Story of the Week

A friend of mine had one of those days...it began with the loss of a crown. She was able to get an appointment that morning and the dentist took all the necessary impressions for a proper replacement and glued a temporary crown in place, saying "That will hold you until the real one comes in." Well, as a snack that afternoon my friend decided on popcorn, maybe not the best choice for a temporary crown, but her choice. The inevitable happened on a crunchy kernal, the crown popped off. She carefully placed the crown on the table next to the bag of popcorn and set to planning another visit to the dentist. Daughter arrives and spots the bag of popcorn, instead of reaching in she first decides to pick up and consume all the stray bits on the table.

"This tastes awful" she says while spitting out the now mangled bit of metal.

At least her dentist will get a chuckle along with his extra work.
