OK Roo - I love spiders - but DAMN that one creeped me the hell out.
I see your "squeal like a little girl" and "fraidy dance" and raise you a "christ I just pissed myself in total abject terror".

OK, Coz. You totally had me until I saw your disclaimer.   Taco, I am so glad that Coco is back--I am sure she missed you. Not to get all "pissing contest" here, but look what lives in my backyard: http://markmlucas.com/images/invertabrates/texas%20brown%202.JPG I found her napping on the green plastic cover of the water meter. She was very still--obviously taking a wee sun-nap. Taking a page from the "Boy's Handbook of How to Deal with Anything" (and needing to determine whether she was dead [no threat] or alive [mild threat]), I decided that there was only one rational course of action: I poked her with a stick. She was very much alive and very, very speedy. She bolted into the grass which parted at her passing much as it would for a stampeeding rhino. I have given new meaning to both "squeal like a little girl" and "the fraidy dance." hahahaha Now that's some spider! coco _____________________

Just so there wasn't any doubt, dear Chance!

A human child? It is odd that you needed to point that out. Just so you didn't suspect I'd be harboring a changeling under my voluminous skirt ... As if: Come away, oh human child To the waters and the wild With a faery hand in hand For the world's more full of weeping Than you can understand ... ~ W. B. Yeats, from "The Stolen Child" (Especially as covered in song by Loreena McKennitt) YMMV? YHVH. Checkmate. YYUR YYUB ICURYY4ME KTHXBYE! |

Dang. Hee! What I've got now is no spiders at all, but a few scorpions (which are more fun, generally): a Pandinus Imperator named Merricat: http://www.tiscalinet.ch/alber001/skorpione/Pandinus%20imperator-4_1.jpg a Hadogenes Troglodytes named Nyarlahotep: http://www.arachnology.org/Arachnology/Pages/Pictures/htrogl.jpg and a tail-less whipscorpion named Stairway Sam: http://www.bkcave.com/PR/1-5/Hector/IMG_2515.JPG |

I have given new meaning to both "squeal like a little girl" and "the fraidy dance." And where were the videocams when this was going on?! |
