And speaking of wisdom teeth……..

My brother just popped over with some homemade chili. I’m looking forward to eating it tonight for dinner, but must remember to chew on the other side of my mouth until healed. While here, he told us a funny story about the time he had all four wisdom teeth removed. He was driving home to Connecticut from his dentist in Manhattan in his red Ferrari, when some man in a truck pulled alongside him on the highway, pulled in front of him, braked, changed lanes, passed him on the left, the right, cut him off, etc……. You know the type. My brother pulled over to the side of the highway to let this lunatic go on his way, but the lunatic pulled over, too. My brother got out of his car when the lunatic did and asked him what his problem was. Picture this: My brother had at least four large pads of bloody gauze puffing out his cheeks, blood spitting out of his mouth as he questioned the jerk, and bloody drool dripping down his chin (which he wasn’t aware of until he got back into his car). The jerk’s eyes popped, he apologized, and hopped back into his truck and took off. Hubs and I laughed our heads off.

It seems that way. My brother is writing a book about his wild and crazy life. This is something I suggested he include in his book.

Yes, I know the type... One followed me from the turnoff onto I-44 the 50 miles into Springfield, Mo and kept passing me on both sides even when one side was the shoulder of the interstate until I'd had enough and pulled over into a parking lot. As soon as I stopped and started to get out of my car to see what the jerk wanted. he squealed his tires and left the parking lot. (At the time, I was a bodybuilder and looked like it.) I giggled my tush off the rest of the way to my friend's house and told her why I was late getting there. She started giggling about it, too.

That’s a story that ended very well in a more manly way than my brother’s

I wouldn't have been getting out of the car, but glad it ended well.

That's funny. That jerk must've thought something was wrong with him. Is it sad that I still kind of have mine and refuse to do anything about it?

You hit the nail on the head! No! Be thankful that you are full of wisdom and they never gave you a problem.

That is so funny. I bet the guy was a wee bit embarrassed.

I am happy to learn that the lunatic driver and your brother did not get into a traffic fight.
