Well if we view it as an upright figure, waving his arms in the air, perhaps he's happy to have two pairs of arms, two pairs of legs and what appears to be two, erm...cough, um... you know.....
That's funny....brought a smile to my face. I'm still not going to fall for that 'spiders are harmless' theory though.
But the are! :DQuote:

I mean most spiders. There are dangerous species of course but they are far less common than all the dangerous insects which don't look so scary.
Well, maybe unless you live in Australia.:rolleyes:
:D Awwwww, that's cute! But why did Mother Nature think a smiling human face would look dangerous???:eek::D Happy Earth Day!

There's a lot of spiders here in Oz, mostly the harmless nuisance messy ones (that build webs all over the place which attract)Quote:

We have some nasty spiders around here, My husband had a spider bite once that caused his hand to swell up.
We have two types of poisonous spiders in my local area. The Black Widow and the Brown Recluse.
Neither are truely deadly unless you happen to be allergic to the venom.
The bite of a Black Widow can make anyone sick and the Brown Recluse venom can cause flesh decay resulting in a hole in the area of the bite.
Neither are aggressive and prefer to run and hide if allowed to do so.
Angelize, my husband was bitr as well. He was getting into bed, standing next to it, when he felt a bite. He saw a pale, whitish spider running away. His toe swelled quite large from it and hurt.
We also had the fan above our bed spring a batch of baby spiders right before bedtme. They all came parachuting out right before we turned off the lights. I still get the creeps at night.
Maya, you are an incorrigible optimist ;)Quote:
