**Liz** (re: tapeworm and log)

Liz you can get tapeworm from raw or undercooked pork or beef that is infected with tapeworm. I would recommend the beef over the pork as pork tapeworm larvae can move out of the intestine into your brain.

A log (logarithm) is the exponent by which a base has to be raised to produce a number. For example, with a base of 10 then 1 log of 10 is 10, 2 logs of 10 is 100. An example of a one log reduction: You have 100 then reduce it by 1 log you end up with 10.

Have you ever heard of the shows "Monsters Inside Us?"  I can't remember what channel, Animal Planet or A&E???

It's all about parasites and freaky sh!t like that.

I could never watch it, the commercial was awful enough.  About as gross as Infested - Or whatever that show is.

I don't think its a tape worm, I found it in Photobucket.  Tape worms don't have a skeleton, I think.

Where is Dr. Worm?  I'm sure she can give us a lesson too.

That skeleton looks like a snake, which is even more disturbing.

Tapeworms do not have a skeletal system so no that is not a tapeworm in the 1st photo. The first photo looks like a snake although it is still quite funny.
