"A 32-year-old man who died after downing dozens of roaches and worms last month to win a python at a Florida reptile store choked to death."

CNN reports the results of the medical examination, and the first comment over there is: "And now the worms are eating him."

Ah, a lawsuit!

Somewhere, a lawyer is happy!

I hope his tattoo artist got paid up front and someone is taking care of his pit bull. He died happy, a python, tatts , and a pit bull are the white trash trifecta.

But it was only fantasy
The wall was too high, as you can see
No matter how he tried he could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain

On a lighter note this might be a night to brew a vat of hot chocolate. Starting at 7:00 on TCM, we have "Pride and Prejudice", "Jane Eyre", "Great Expectations" and "Room With a View". I'm calling in sick tomorrow.

I am getting addicted to TCM. The movies are such high quality, and there's no commercials.

When I read this, I hear Sam Elliott.

"Men have died from time to time, and worms have eaten them, but not for love ..." I wonder if he really loved that python.

The guy was Canadian.

He called his snake Mounty Python.

Dumb ways to die.

Caution: It's a wicked ear worm.
