"after he climbed onto the roof of the car he was driving" That's dangerous
I don't know about that... it worked fine for Rowan Atkinsen, aka Mr Bean. He went to a store, bought a huge comfy chair that wouldn't fit in his car, mounted it on his roof, and then drove around [very hilly area] somewhere in London perhaps. He used a broom or mop to manage the brakes, a brick for the accelerator [those little EU cars don't need no stinkin japanese cruise control]. His feet I think somehow reached the steering column.

made $164,000 a year and supervised 300 employees and part of the citys $1 billion budget, Maccarone said. I'd say this illustrates more than one sort of parasite. What value can the city government possibly add to make it worth a billion a year?

No offense, but I swear CortiSlim contains tapeworms.

It's real...information is good. If it prevents one Freeper or lurker from ordering a taco on a vacation from a stand in Mexico City, than it's worth it.

I was so tempted to post a picture of a man struggling with a parasite like in some 50's horror movie. Instead, I'll just post a link to
this site which has some pretty cool old movie posters. (Pop-up ads too, but whadja expect for free?)

Tapeworm and the brain Coming soon to a family member near you courtesy of uncontrolled illegal and uncontrolled legal immigration of people with various disgusting diseases and parasites from third world pest holes. Another reason the thank GWB II for cracking down in this problem (OH wait, he doesn't want to crack down on them. He wants to give them amnesty)

What really happened, this guy ingested whole the little worm at the bottom of a tequila bottle. Happens a lot in Mexico, occasionally in Texas ... those little worms are a bitch.

tapeworms can invade brain tissue Tapeworms? I thought they lived in the intestines. Is this supposed to be trichinosis?
I read of an old treatment for tapeworms. It was absolutely horrifying. Abandon ship now if you are the least big squeamish...
The victim (and tapeworm) would be starved for a period of time. Several people would hold down the victim while some pungent food was placed in front of the victim's mouth. Eventually, the tapeworm would emerge to take the bait...

Police haven't determined if the death was suicide or accidental? I know every time I set my cruise control and climb out on the roof of my car, I am always aware that I may accidentally fall off.

many cases of cysticercosis probably result from a person ingesting eggs that are produced by a tapeworm living in his or her own intestinal tract. If this was one of those slobs who doesn't wash his hands after leaving the bathroom, well he got he deserved.
Meanwhile, anyone who ever shook hands with him should consult their doctor.

The Tingler? Yes, when I read the head, I immediately thought he was fighting a huge parasite.There was a more scary one then The Tingler, as I recall, also a 50's movie, with more realistic brain/spinal-column creatures. However, the name escapes me.
