'Dirty Girls'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
(completely unrelated) are there spiders with red-orangey hourglasses on them that are not venomous? If not, what should I do with the one that has built its web in a relatively high traffic area?
update: nebbermind. The spider seems to have disappeared. And now I am seriously creeped out.
I once knew a very smart conservative libertarian who made two exceptions to his general position out of self interest - health care and education. His reasoning: ignorance and disease are both infectious.
Yup. It's the things that government forces you to pay for that don't directly affect you that bug, like roads and policing and fire departments. Or safety regulations that coddle workers. Maybe it does keep some people from getting nasty diseases and losing limbs and whatnot, but there's every chance it might be making my dishsoap cost 10 cents more. And the SEC, what a boondoggle. Just ties business down what with all that "accounting" and "ethics". Plus, people should know better than to buy poison dog food. If sales of lead-filled kids toys drop, China will stop making them that way, it's simple economics.

Basically. His son swears when he spills a drink in the car, then says he learned it by watching his dad. Later he prays before bed, and says the same thing, blah blah blah.
Yeah, not nearly as heartwarming a father and son country song as "A Boy Named Sue."
OTOH? "Giddy-up go" still gets me verklempt.
OK the spider is back and a google image check has confirmed that it is a brown widow. Now what do I do?
Um, stomp it? But only if you can do so without turning into Spiderman or something. Eek.
Take a clear tumbler and a piece of stiff paper, trap the spider inside, then take her to the outdoors and let her go.
Yeah, I vote "smoosh it"
Laga:
1. Find a heavy boot
2. Smash spider
3. Rest easier
I went right to bed at 6 p.m. when DH got home and I slept until 9:45. Probably not a good idea for my sleep cycle.
Yeah not so much with the stomping. It's in a web about two feet off the ground. That gives it way too much time to crawl up my leg. I called my boss. She's thinking.
I guess hitting it with a shovel would be overkill...
t Not to mention possible property damage.
