There once was a man named Max
He was loud and unhindered by facts
The lines that he spun
were whimsy and fun
But his stories were all full of cracks

There was a man named Max Woodman that frequented my parents restaurant regularly. He was apparently fitted for dentures at one time because his mouth was completely free of teeth, but he never wore them. He had two sons a little younger than me so I don't think he was as old as his toothless smile made him seem. He also had an interesting hobby or occupation...I'm not sure which it was. He trapped and sold snapping turtles. He had a lot of stories about his adventures catching those big turtles and though it seems funny to me that a man with no teeth would catch something with a bite like a snapping turtle I guess it's not that odd. They don't have teeth either.
