Zonker would be right at home there!

When you’re an entomologist, the entire world is a lab.

Maybe not. At MIT one is actually expected to work.

What kind of lice and how did he get them? Inquiring minds want to know.

I heard on the radio (BBC WorldService) last night that 40% of the students at MIT are of Asian extraction - stereotypically famous for being scrupulously clean. Do they tolerate such a mass of unwashed types?

Of course not.

She should include a bottle of turpentine and a box of matches in her samples.

The best laid schemes of lice and men…

It’s not Flied Lice….It’s fried rice, plick.

Now I’m itchy…Ew

I don’t think even these guys’ plans get laid, penguin.

jgcp1 I’m sure some people of Asian extraction are scrupulously clean. However, I have personnally worked with some that needed to be told to bath more than once a week.

Introduce them to mouthwash while you’re at it.

Have to say fish heads and rice with rice bread and nouc mam is a wonderful repast. Helps you to ignore the dark nights when the only companionship is the little lousy critters wandering about sampling the wares, so to speak… Ahh, for a nice comfortable fighting hole, my k-bar and the fellowship of my little crabby friends…

Didn’t we have lice in a series a few weeks ago? I know someone commented on it. we were back in an Afghan series- CIA guy etc.

Pee-Uuuu! Smells like, like, Hollister. N’ stuff. Jssst.

I love bacon.

I STILL say lock the doors and turn on the sprinklers. Then recruit the football team to come at them with soap and skincloths.

These guys need to learn the hard way…

sheik, is it the same with camel fleas?

You can look them up on a pair o’ sites.

How can the lice stand living on him? And, if they didn’t stink before, they do now.

That guy looks like a young Zonker, just fattened up to the present day norm.
