FATAL HAIRDO

THERE WAS A LADY WHO USED TO WEAR HER HAIR IN A
BOUFFANT HAIRDO. ONE DAY SHE GOT SICK AND WAS RUSHED
TO THE HOSPITAL. THEY COULD NOT FIND OUT WHAT WAS
MAKING HER SICK. ONE DAY A NURSE SAW A SPIDER IN
HER HAIR--THEY THEN DISCOVERED A SPIDER NEST IN HER
HAIR. BUT IT WAS TOO LATE, AND SHE DIED OF THE
SPIDER BITES.

Submitter comment: INFORMANT THINKS SHE REMEMBERS SEEING THIS IN A
NEWSPAPER ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO.
