Alan Reed’s ‘Daily Doof’ and Other Stuff

A semi crashed in Alabama because the driver tried to pull out a tooth while driving. The truck went into a ditch and stopped after crashing into a tree. The road was closed for 11 hours but the driver wasn’t seriously injured. He had the tooth in his pocket as proof. (He still feels...down in the mouth.) HI-YO! -Alan
