Jeremiah Fargo sends in this picture of his wife Maria. She’s the pink bit. Also, there’s a fly–it’s the black bit. No, not that black bit, that’s the logo. The other black bit. Yeah. That’s the one.

So, would now be a bad time to mention that flies eat by vomiting digestive juices onto their food, letting it dissolve, and then sucking the slurry back up? Think of it as sort of a meat smoothie.

You know what the best part of running insectpod is? It’s knowing that, the next time you get a smoothie at Jamba Juice, you’re going to think of  fly vomit.

    If anyone *really* wants to see housefly tongue action up-close-and-personal, get hold of a copy of Housefly: An Everyday Monster. We just got it from Netflix last week, the macrophotography is pretty good. The thing I thought was most freakish, though, was the bladder that they have on their heads, that they inflate to break out of their pupas.

    Thanks, David. Good thing I had Jamba Juice last night, because now I won’t want it for a looooong time.

    I’m just glad I don’t go to Jamba Juice, so this doesn’t affect me in any way.

    As long as I don’t realize that Jamba Juice isn’t the only place to get slurpies, I’ll be absolutely fine.
