    Can Calvin dip the worms in ketchup to make them easier to swallow?

    With all the suspense Calvin is building, he should charge Susie more.

    Susie went on to produce dozens of allegedly entertaining television programs with this same concept.

    While on the surface it may appear that Calvin is trying to gross Susie out in reality this is just a delaying tactic as Calvin is imagining how gross the worms would be and how to avoid having to eat them.

    Susie should make a video of this event—and then post it on the internet!!

    Martin Luther had a Diet of Worms in 1521 so what’s the big deal.

    Speaking of classic bluffs:

    KIRK (into wall communicator): Kang! Kang, this is Captain Kirk.

    [Engineering]

    KIRK [OC]: I know you can hear me, so don’t cut me off. We have Mara, your wife. We talk truce now, or she dies! Reply!

    [Long silence]

    KIRK: She has five seconds to live. Reply!

    [Shorter silence]

    KANG (subdued voice): She is a victim of war, Captain.

    [Bridge]

    KANG [OC]: She understands.

    KIRK (cutting the connection): He called my bluff!

    That’s alot of suspense from Calvin. I wonder what kind of worms those are, though?

    This is where learning those sleight of hand tricks come in handy. Of course, he could have used 5 gummy worms, but that may have cost him more than a nickel.

    Calvin obviously does NOT want to eat the worms. Susie is holding his feet to the fire though. Good for her !

    He’s hoping she faints or runs away so he doesn’t have to swallow the darned things. I think he’s a wimp at heart, just a drama king.

    Even Calvin, who wouldn’t mind eating ONE worn, is hesitant to eat five worms at once, and Susie is enjoying seeing Calvin struggle to do so!

    Susie sure knows how to keep a straight face (unlike lunch time in the school cafeteria when Calvin talks about his bizarre lunch he has brought).

    On one of many drunken evenings, one of my friends was about to feed six earthworms to his aquarium fish (I don’t choose this number to one-up Calvin; the story is true). I told him I’d give him a dollar for each one he ate. So he downed them all. Six bucks gone. But he knew I was really broke, so a few evenings later, when we convened with five other friends and him, he and them each pledged a dollar each if I ate six earthworms. Earned my money back! Then of course, none of my other friends wanted to be outdone…
