Eww. I hate bugs. We used to have mole crickets in our yard in Alabama. If you poured soapy water in the ground, they'd come digging upwards, and start to hop at you. Ick!!!

Um, you gotta understand that pose from a guy's perspective. With the bare shoulders and the lacing showing. Um, yeah. What are you wearing in that picture? Is that like a prom dress or a bridesmaid's dress or something? It's hard to tell. The laces almost make it look like a corset. Don't want to go there!

How come I never get the theme music when I use my shoe to pound a spider to death? I keep looking back at that scene in Dr. No and wonder why I don't have theme music following me. :-B :-B

Never underestimate the sex appeal of a nice view of upper back and shoulders. It can be incredibly sexy.

They are the little things with some kind of shell that immediately roll up into a ball when you pick them up. Turns out they are a Woodlouse.

I have never encountered one in my real life, but I feel pretty good about saying those things suck.

We always called those "roly-polies". My mom calls them "pill bugs".

Actually, when I was a little kid, we used to love playing with them. (We called them roly-poly's.) Nothing more fun than making one of them curl up, then flicking it halfway down the street. I used to think about them coming to a rest, unfurling, and thinking, "goddammit, where the hell am I?" :))

(Geez, maybe I was a rather twisted kid.... :-?? )

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, they look much more nefarious when you're zoomed in close. Yeah, I'm down with these guys. Somehow I imagined these things to be like 3" long. I can handle roly-poly and lady bugs.
