The Tapeworm That Couldn't

There once was a tapeworm named Emilio. He was much like any other tapeworm. He lived in the intestinal tract of a Vietnamese pig and ate what the pig ate. His proglottids would detach, be released through the pig's bowels, and eventually bring life to new tapeworms. He was certainly a father to thousands by now. Anyway, Emilio really wished, deep down, that he could be a Broadway Dancer. He practiced day after day. He learned the Charleston, and the Jitterbug, and even the Macarena. But one day, he was faced with the reality that he was only a parasite, and he would never get out of the bowels of the pig alive. So, he drank until he could no longer stay attached to the pig with his mighty scolex. He then drew a picture of a talking hamburger and decided to buy a timeshare in Pensacola.
