Default Remember the brain eating amoeba?

http://t.nbcnews.com/health/brain-ea...dly-6C10916521

Yea for modern medicine. "A 12-year-old Arkansas girl infected with a brain-eating amoeba is on the mend and may be only the third person known to have survived the baffling infection, doctors said Wednesday."

The Amoeba showed up at my house and promptly starved to death.

After the zombie incident and the brain sucking spiders, I now have a problem with stinking rotting carcasses lying about.

That is awesome. Last week while on vacation I had thought of this young lady in deep trouble. I hoped she would pull through. Great news. Made my day!

That's great news for the girl

Personally I thought it was a thread about reality TV...

Cheers

Reality TV is a brain eating organism all its own.

I should sue them all for stealing my idea. I've always been of the opinion that real life is much more entertaining than the drivel they air on television.

At any rate, I'm glad the little girl beat the heinous little critters.
