I remember a long time ago when I overheard my dad telling my mom about what happened on a fishing outing. He had tossed out a line and was dunking some bait on a pier at Pearl Harbor.
There was a huge strike, and he rushed to the pole.
In his excitement his top front partial dentures fell into the water. He dove into the water to try to retrieve them but wasn't able to find them.
I've kept that story in my memory banks for over 50 years. When I called my mom a little while ago to confirm that he did dive in after the teeth, she said, "Yes he did dive in to look for them. They fell out after he bit into an apple." Whaaaaaaat??!! After he bit into an apple?? I like my story better.
