TIL: that Michelin (the tire company) is French.
Nuclear flyswatter.
Reasons to hate spring:
First spider of the year!
I already brace myself for all the other bloody disgusting insects (But spiders are no ins...SHUT UP), I think I have to change the rich old guy approach with a winter house in the sunbelt to the arachnophobic approach: A summer house at the polar circle.
Did you know that on average, every person eats several spiders per year in their sleep, because they crawl in their mouths?
I read somewhere that it's a rare event when a human is more than 6 feet away from a spider.
I really don't mind spiders, so long as they respect my "personal space". And if they startle me, well if I'm fast enough to recover, they gotta go...
I once heard that you eat 2 spiders each year in your sleep..
I am not sure, that spiders are that stupid. Most that I share my flat with, are smart enough to not even walk over my body, while I am in the tunnel. I have no problems with spiders, I rather have some of them on my balcony, than millions of mosquitos.
BTW: Tonight was the coldest march night in Braunschweig/Brunswick since 1891.
Which is quite funny, since in Australia, where the only non-poisonous animal is the kangaroo, nobody dies of eating accidentally a spider during night.
No, eating spiders is an urban myth, that I actually expected you all to know about. I was just trying to poke some fun at MattBaker.
garyw: Rabbits, sheep, dingos and camels as well. :lol: But I am pretty sure, thats almost all of the exceptions.
Exactly. I'm less sure about an Australian who has just been dragged away from his barbie.... (and Aussies do a damn good barbie).
It starts to look more and more like "Lunar Flight" game.A random screenshot from my moon landing sim project - now with 3D terrain and terrain collison detection!
You've seen the Nike missiles too?
It starts to look more and more like "Lunar Flight" game.![]()
A picture I saw in my mind when I read this :lol::... I can be there in 2112 with my shiny new robot body!
