Thread Name: Folklore: The Mudcat Uncle John Thread
Subject: RE: Folklore: The Mudcat Uncle John Thread
We had an Uncle John who fancied himself an inventor and once, at a family picnic, after explaining at length how you could wire false teeth to be audio transmitters and/or receivers he removed his false teeth to demonstrate exactly how it could happen. It was just after the potato salad and corn on the cob, and, as a small child I remember being less grossed out than the grown ups, but it was still awesome.
He managed not only to shed bits of the food from the teeth, but his instantly unitelligible commentary sprayed that end of the table with more bits of corn.
Like that?
Blessings,
Barbara
