omg...cool :) I have heard about that 2 days ago when my friend said that once she killed a fly that was somehow weird and disorientated and something like this (by description) came out and she wondered it that happens when the fly doesn't find the place where to put its eggs... well to me it sounds strange and unlikely..but who knows
