A few things that I hear about spiders.

1. You are never more th en 6 feet away from a spider at any time of the year.

2. If spiders were as big as cats, humans would be extinct.

3. Spiders are not, infact, insects, but are called aracknoids.

4. Some spider webs when woven together are actualy stronger then steel cable.

...so Mike, you are dressing up as a spider?
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I doubt it. I just thought that with all this spider talk, I would toss in my two cents. I don't know if I'm going to put on any costume, but it's nice to know, that it will be easy to find one that fits if I am so enclined.

I was thinking of being Sookie Stackhouse at first but that costume is almost boringly simple.

I think I'll be (a non-sexy) Red-ridding hood who got the wolf. Carry a bloody wolf head around in a basket. Or a dead ballerina who hung herself with her slipper ribbons....

Spooky, I think that's just an urban legend, because when you are asleep, your are breathing, and the spider instinctively knows better then to walk into your mouth. You definately do get spider bites when sleeping. I've awoken with enough of them in my life time.

you're probably right but it's a great story for this forum and fits in your list for "creep" factor :)

She is the main character in True Blood...Bill the vampire's woman. As far as I know she is still human but she is dating him.

She's easy on the eyes too...Anna Pacquin is the actress.

I think it's still too early for the 'normals' to be poking around in here.

When I heard that Anna Pacquin was in TRT, I was happy to buy it.
