whats the pay?


What an absoulety awful story. Sounds almost like an urban legend. Anyone here the one about someone who transplanted a wild cactus. It looked like the skin was moving and then it ruptured sending thousands of deadly spiders all over the house/apartment?

About 2 weeks ago there was a story on MSNBC that I listened to. An oriental woman was hiking and washed her face in a stream. Sometime later back home she went to the doctor because of nose bleeds. First doctor gave her medication or something. While talking to the seond one, the doctor noticed something looking out the womans nostril. Turns out it was a leach that had been in the stream water and got in the nostil when the woman washed her face. The leach attached itself to the womans membrane inside the nose and caused the nose bleeds. The damn thing grew to be two inches long! It was removed and the area cautirized. Gross huh?

Again, I only overheard the story in the background while at work. But that's the jist of it.

Anyone ever see or hear about Guinea Worm Disease. That is about the most disgusting and vulgar bug I've ever known.
