My best guess is that it was on the back of a flat bed truck which misjudged the height of the bridge.

That's my first thought, although for it to get stuck that far under there had to be a pretty hefty bounce involved.

I really, really, really would like to know how this happened.

If it's stuck up like that for more than four hours, call a mechanic.

I'm curious too, doubly so because the rear bumper is bent UNDER the box and frame, as opposed to towards the rear door....

I think the viagra advert on the sides was photoshopped in. I've never seen a truck for just one med.

 

 

Oh yes, you can see part of the original logo underneath.

Me too. Upon first seeing the photo, I literally said out loud "How the F...?"

Yup, I saw that yesterday. 

I was going to comment on it, then I lost power from the pretty intense storm that rolled through here last night.

 

No power for about 6 hours, I just went to bed early. And got woken up when power was restored at 11:30 ish.

(I intentionally left a couple lights on so I'd know when/if it came back on)

That feeling when you see yet another email in your inbox from your kid's math teacher: :down:

The feeling when you open it up and find out it's about how good she's been doing this week and letting you know that her work with her tutor is paying off! :bday:

How long have dentists (or surgeons) been doing dental bone grafts?  This is not a procedure I've heard of.  I see commercials about dental implants frequently, though.

Not sure how long it's been a "thing".  I went in to get implants, or more accurately, I complained to my dentist that my teeth didn't meet when I chewed anymore, and it turned out my teeth were falling over into the gaps left behind by some molar extractions I'd had when I was a teen.  So after 2+ years of braces (thanks COVID!) I was supposed to get implants but it turns out my jaw was too thin to accommodate them and they didn't want to do a bridge because all the surrounding teeth are perfectly healthy.   So, cue the bone grafts... In 6-9 months I get to see if the bone is ready for the actual implants...  Not sure how long this has been a thing

 

Details hidden in case some folks are not interested in these things.  

 

Spoiler

Brief description is they cut open the gums on either side of the jawbone down to the base of the bone, scrape the bone surface clean and then put in (not sure how as my eyes were closed) a paste made from powdered human and animal bones and my blood and then they sewed up the incisions.  They cut about 2 teeth past where the extra bone mass is needed so I've got stitches all over the place in my mouth.  They only do 1 quadrant per visit with 6+ weeks in between so you can chew on one side while the other heals.
