John Lennon's Tooth Sells for More Than $31,000 at Auction

Happy Monday morning everyone!  This is the odd news I found this morning:

Really?!?



"The tooth fairy's rates have dramatically increased in the last 40+ years, especially when the bounty is a Beatle's molar. John Lennon's tooth fetched £19,000 (about $31,200) at auction in England Saturday.

The tooth had been in the family of Lennon's former housekeeper. Lennon gave it to Dot Jarlett to dispose of sometime between 1964 and 1968, but then he suggested she keep the tooth to give to her daughter, who was a big Beatles fan." -Rolling Stone
