dude! we just sat and watched one little spider try and take over the web of another spider. i *hate* spiders, but even i had to admit that this was cool - he crept up the web, with the resident spider shaking the silks, until he got close enough. they scrapped and the intruder was repelled. seriously - natural geographic at its best.

Raspberry - I wouldn’t be able to watch that even - I’m that bad - I’m Jeff Daniels frozen in terror in his basement from the movie - arggajshhad! - can’t even think about them!

Eric - the mozzie terror is a more subtle kind of foe - I’ve come to an understanding with them over the years as I’ve been so many places that they wield thier rule over - I don’t get too annoyed by the bites anymore and have yet to catch Malaria as well - they also don’t really like the levels of alcohol in my blood apparently. Which, y’know, is a cracking excuse to drink.
