reminiscent of vegetarians who's claim to fame is that they " never eat anything w/a face " :lol:

Ive never heard that song, but there was some woman in Norwalk, Cal. years ago who died in her house, laid there for a couple weeks or so and her Chihuahuas had a meal of her. I look at my Chihuahua a little differently after thinking about this. I also read somewhere also that an elephant in the Berlin Zoo ate some guy.

John Galt is a character in "Atlas Shrugged"

and I think the US Congress just surpassed my fear of spiders. I knew it was only a matter of time.

Did they outlaw them or something? Sounds like something Congress would do.

The internet speeds on this site...shocking at times and one of the reasons I frequent less. All other sites are working fine but this one can be extremely slow to load pages. :|

Thats true. It seems to be working good now, but probably not for long.

Carla, I wouldnt have to worry then. My house is spider heaven. :evil:

Argh! We live near the water and there are always spiders everywhere. The water ones with the teeny delicate bodies and the legs as wide as your hand, the fat black ones that hide in the closets, the fifty cent piece ones in the garage, the giants that run across the floor, the ones that build tunnels in the bushes... I used to be afraid of spiders, now I just slap at them with my bare hands if they aren't too fat, and I only kill them if they are in the house or running over my foot.
