. . . after I cut away the hard dried exterior, and the maggots, this raw meat tastes surprisingly delicious. Mmmm, parasites.
I think I would like to start a new easy diet: Tapeworms. One or more of these in your gut and the pounds just melt away. Eat all you like. Pound the carbs, pound the beer, have a cheese steak for breakfast, pizza for lunch and hell, melt some butter and drink it for dinner. You still lose weight because the tapeworm will actually eat all the food before it gets to you. Twiggy here you come.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.45424-1057623Mon, 26 Sep 2005 18:42:24 -0800caddisBy: mediareport

Wow. Reminds me of the relationship between polio and sanitation. When sewage was everywhere, babies were regularly exposed to polioviruses and got a mild, non-paralytic form of the disease, which gave them immunity when exposed later in life. With improved sanitation and cleaner water in Northern Europe and the USA, that early immunization stopped happening, leading to a frightening increase in polio cases in older children and adults.
Tradeoffs, tradeoffs, tradeoffs. Neat post, dilettante.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.45424-1057632Mon, 26 Sep 2005 18:50:45 -0800mediareportBy: caddis

It really works. Seriously. Fried of mine, finished sewing her own (ren-style) wedding dress, went to the Carribeans for a biology field trip, got a worm, came back 30 pounds lighter, had to alter the dress, give years out now, she's about twice as heavy as pre-tapeworm.
Should never have gotten rid of that worm.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.45424-1057678Mon, 26 Sep 2005 19:38:50 -0800PurplePorpoiseBy: schroedinger

<i>polio and sanitation</i>
I should mention it's a popular theory, caddis, and that while some folks question the evidence for it (given the variation in size and location of the epidemics during the late 1800s/early 1900s), it's probably fair to say most epidemiologists would acknowledge some kind of link between improved sanitation and reduced immunity to polioviruses.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.45424-1057761Mon, 26 Sep 2005 21:21:56 -0800mediareportBy: exlotuseater

The germ exposure-increased immunity link has been a common discussion among moms for years. I know when my daughter was little there was the idea among my social group that allowing our little ones to crawl on the floor and eat dust was not a bad thing.comment:www.metafilter.com,2005:site.45424-1058121Tue, 27 Sep 2005 09:29:49 -0800Secret Life of GravyBy: nofundy

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it.

The professor doesn't seem to realize Down the middle of the Ganges a white bundle is being borne, and on it a crow pecking the body of a child wrapped in its winding-sheet. 53 The attention of the public was now again drawn to those unnatural feuds which disturbed the Royal Family. The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law. They've been arrested in violation of the Constitution and laws of the State of Indiana, which provide¡ª" "I know of Marvor and will take you to him. It is not far to where he stays." Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation. He invited him to dinner once or twice, and, realising his picturesqueness, was not ashamed to show him to his friends. Stephen Holgrave ascended the marble steps, and proceeded on till he stood at the baron's feet.
