My last thought on this subject: the maggots were alive.

He located said critter by _smell_ and proceeded to eat the backwards half of the maggots after stating " I shouldn't be touching the meat of this animal, but....."

Anyone else see him get abdominal cramps after drinking "obiously pure rain forest river water"?

I for one take his _show_ with a very large grain of salt.

Iodized, of course <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
