In Daniel 14 it mentions daniel make a mixture of pitch and hair and mixed it with hair and fed it to a dragon. It says the Dragon burst asunder or basically a rupture of the GI tract.

They should have just rubbed a little coconut oil on her paws for a couple of weeks.

That helps keep things moving right along.

Humans generally don’t respond well to that treatment.

I disagree. I respond very well to being rubbed with coconut oil.

I remember reading about a bezoar made of pennies. The patient died from liver failure due to copper toxicity.

I suppose the stomach acids would eventually dissolve copper and the metal would work it’s way through the blood stream.

"I suppose the stomach acids would eventually dissolve copper and the metal would work it’s way through the blood stream"

That's exactly what happened. I read it in an old Forensic Pathology journal. Back when pennies were mostly copper. The patient had swallowed pounds of pennies, which became fused into this huge metallic blob in his stomach.

Well, she’s stopped eating her hair, which is good.

My wife could shave herself bald, and I'd still be digging something out of the trap that looks like a dead rat on a weekly basis.

Umm...everywhere?

Her hair is good? You've tasted it?

Never mind; I don't want to know.
