Charles Darwin said that it was "absurd in the highest possible degree".

The most venomous caterpillar in the U.S., known as the furry puss caterpillar (Megalopyge opercularis) sent many people in the eastern U.S. to the hospital last September. While these insects may look soft, their outer comb-over hides small, extremely toxic spines that stick in your skin.

I am not sure if such blogs are welcome here, but I will try sparking enthusiasm in this subject.

And recently, two major discoveries have been made in the Ancient Egyptian land.

The first discovery made was that belonging to an Ancient Queen named Khentakawess's the 3rd's tomb, which was located near her husband's tomb, Pharoah Neferefre.

I have not given 'the best way to die' much thought yet, but apparently a leading doctor and the former editor of the prestigious British Medical Journal (BMJ) has claimed cancer is the best way to die.
