A Close Call

The other day, my son and my wife were at Mecca Mall when the following conversation came up:

SON: “Can I ask you something?”

WIFE: “Sure.”

SON: “Is it possible for a fly to go into your ear and into your head and eat your brain?”

WIFE: “No.”

SON: “Hmph. Ok, I’m all right then.”

    Qwaider, perhaps you are referring to the Earwig, although they don’t actually harm you.

    Maher, actually I was thinking of the Ceti Eel creature from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

    It certainly can be a problem. There is speculation that that’s what happened with Van Gogh. Lopped off his ear because a bug got stuck there and was throwing off his balance and causing a ringing…
