And after a short examination, Jesse Courtney literally could not believe his ears when the doc told him that a pair of eight-legged creepy crawlies had set up home in his head.

How do they know it's a fallacy? Have they done a field study? Have they monitored the spiders going into and out of someones mouth over the course of a life time?... I think not

I'll get my coat ...

Diane Courtney told the doctor in their home town of Albany, Oregon, that her son was hearing noises like "like Rice Krispies".

hmmm... Just had a thought. If they sound like Rice Krispies, do they feel like Rice Krispies on your tongue? And do they taste the same?
