    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      88 minutes seems quite a while to be in a toad's digestive juices. But ten I don't know much about toads. Brenda?

                      This is hilarious! What's so comical is that the ram seems to have shoved the guy -- who was peaceably fishing and minding his own business -- for no apparent reason. He was like, "There's a guy fishing. I think I'll butt him into the water. Maybe knock his hat off."

                      Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace. – Mike Ditka

                                    You are looking at a parasite called Cymothoa Exigua. It enters through a fishes gills, eats their tongue and then replaces it. This lil delight literally sucks out the blood off the fish's tongue, and then replaces the withered tongue with itself. Now every time the fish eats, it takes away a portion of the food for itself.

                                        I hate that this twitter feed has been deleted.

                                        I also am disappointed (@Klaus) that we can't embed tweets here - yet.
