How long can a cockroach survive without its head?

That's the question MSN is asking today. I would like to ask the blogging cockroach that question but I don't think it matters. You see his significant other is French and hopefully the lack of head is not even a question.

  2. hey trooper
    i saw this yesterday but tommy
    --he's the boy whose computer i use--
    threw me off the computer because school is out
    and he wanted to play runescape
    looks like i have to compete with guys with swords
    until he goes away to camp in a couple of weeks
    and then i won't be able to use it at all damn

    anyway how about a link to that msn story...
    mean bastards probably made a little cockroach guillotine
    to carry out their sick experiments
    so what if we can survive a bit longer without our heads...
    i mean it's not like we're the only one who can do it
    guillotines are a subject that comes up sometimes
    here at the house what with mom being french and all
    tommy once found a site with stories of all the heads
    that opened their eyes and looked at the executioner in france
    yikes
    and dad being your basic cambridge liberal
    and mom being your basic european pain in the butt
    are opposed to capital punishment
    but not too much
    mom being french is also not very guilty about being mean
    to criminals
    prison reform in france means changing the time
    of the daily beating of inmates to before breakfast
    so it won't interfere with their digestion

    anyway tommy's grandpa who is a retired cop
    used to tell the story of some old-time prison riot
    where the prisoners captured the warden
    and put a wire noose around his neck
    they were out in the exercise yard near the baseball field
    and the worst happened yep
    somebody pulled on the noose and took the warden's head off
    his corpse took off running like..uh..
    a chicken with its head cut off
    and one of the inmates being pretty mean himself
    yelled 'hey warden you didn't touch second base'
    which proves that not only cockroaches
    can survive without a head
    but people always want to prove how superior they are
    to primitive insects such as myself

    all i've got to say is that we didn't invent the guillotine
    or commit base running errors like that
