The candirú parasitizes other fish. It swims into the gill cavities of other fish, erects a spine to hold itself in place, and feeds on the blood in the gills, earning it a nickname as the “vampire fish of Brazil”. Recent research [1] has shown that candirú do not suck blood, but rather latch on to an artery and have blood pumped into them.

It is feared by the natives because it is attracted to urine or blood[2], and if the bather is nude it will swim into an orifice (the vagina and even the penis—and deep into the urethra). It then erects its spine and begins to feed on the blood and body tissue just as it would from the gills of a fish. The candirú is then almost impossible to remove except through surgery. The fish locates its host by following a water flow to its source and thus urinating while bathing increases the chance of a candirú honing in on a human urethra.

A traditional cure involves the use of two plants, the Xagua plant (Genipa americana) and the Buitach apple which are inserted (or their extract in the case of tight spaces) into the affected area. These two plants together will kill and then dissolve the fish. More often, infection causes shock and death in the victim before the candirú can be removed. Though there have been documented candirú attacks on humans, there is no evidence the fish can survive once inside a human. It was recently sought after by Nick Baker, a wildlife specialist on British TV in a series about the world’s strangest animals.

Who’s got the funk? Better sniff closer – it might be you!

As you’ve gotten older, you might have noticed a few changes going on with your body. But one of these only your nose knows – it’s your personal scent. You smell differently these days than you did a few years ago, and sometimes you can be downright rank, right? What’s to blame for all this smelliness? It’s your old pal, sweat.

Teenage sweat is different from kid sweat. For starters, there’s much more of it. During puberty, hormones that are busy changing you into an adult also up the output of your sweat glands. You sweat more all over, but the places affected most are under your arms and around your genitals. Just So You Know

Termites can eat a pound of wood a day.  A Friggen pound, they could chew them my leg in 12 hours.

  This is why we are on top of the f’n food chain.  Eat your hearts out vegitarians.  Even a mna in a wheel chair can pop an error in the ‘sweet spot’

In there commercial for Special K cereal bars, they brag about the 90 calories of their cereal.  The tag line is ‘donut’ or ‘do not’.  Well I did the research and a Dunkin’ Donuts Plain Cake Munchkin(brand name of donut hole) has only 67.5 calories.  That is only one donut hole, so theartically it doesn’t work out.  But the facts are the facts.

The frabic softner is getting a new bottle.
