Listen, I've blasted enough holes in my walls and floors and ceilings trying to get my point across to spiders that they are NOT welcome in my home!! I'm going through more boxes of shells for the Mossberg than I can afford....I almost shot my computer!!!



Oh, P.S. LC, you're a damn smart-ass. :yh_rotfl :yh_kiss

It might!! I'm thinking of what else I could add to it. Sheryl made the picture with my name in it, Nomad made the "Live to Ride" pic, and the rest of the stuff is stuff I believe in very deeply. I couldn't bear to part with any of it...

NO!!

you are kidding me, OMG biggest spider I have ever been up close to was a tarantula, cool saucer size. Do they run fast and hide from you. Goodness it would be a huge effort to step on them. WOW I find spiders kinda facinating.

Wow, that's not a spider, that's a beast! I to hate spiders. But not as much as I hate SNAKES! :yh_nailbi

Anyway, many years ago I lived in a rural wooded area on Long Island, and was bitten on the forearm during the night while I was asleep by a "Brown Recluse" spider. I saw the bite mark when I woke, it looked a little red, so I put some alcohol on the bite mark & went to work. Luckily for me, I wore a "short sleeve" shirt (usually wore long sleeves) to work that day, cause one of my collegues saw the bite on my forarm. At this point the "red bite area" was larger than the size of a half dollar, with a "red' line going up the vein in my arm towards my heart. "They" immediately took me to the Hospital emergency room, where the doctor on duty eximined my bite mark under a large magnifying glass. He cleaned out the bite thoroughly-picking at it with tweezers, & then gave me a shot of hemogloblin, & that's when he told me that he suspected the bite was from a Brown Recluse spider.

I HATE SPIDERS. :wah:

I too once had an irrational fear of spider's.. so i decided to do something about it, and i did ..i bought one and once i'd done my reserch and began learning about the species ( like most people i had never even touched one) i gradually began to like them..... now i love them and some are really pretty like the Pink Toe which has bright pink toes . I do understand why most people hate spiders i don't like the little fast one's that run really quickly but to me it's the same as owning snake's somebody has to love them. I do draw the line at bug's and cockroach's i could'nt keep them for love nor money .:cool:

Sorry, I felt that the only one I'd spoken of having a monstrous sig, and the person who posted right before my post, might be able to follow a convo not quoted. Won't happen again. :wah: To clarify and answer your question....



YOU!

Hey, Amie...no need to be a smart ass, and no need to announce to the world that my sig offends you. An adult would have just turned off the sig views and not felt compelled to mention it to everyone.

So sorry you don't like it, no one else has ever had a problem with anyone else's sig. Your prerogative of course, to turn it off, Just like it's mine to put what I choose there, but I'll tell you, your smart mouth is unneccessary.

Hiya Pam!! It was my intention to shock a few folks!! My mission has been accomplished!! :yh_rotfl

I'd never leave FG. And my good pal LC has very kindly changed her sig line and the horrifying spider is gone.

THANK YOU, LC!!!! :-4 :-4

Jesus H Christ, you people are so friggin uptight! It was a JOKE not a personal attack!!

I don't mind spiders at all. Regularly I have to get them out of my bathtub. They range from microscopic to huge and hairy. The small ones are the hardest and the thickest.

I spend several minutes trying to get them out of my bathtub. The small ones run for dear life once they see my hand coming up behind them (just like women do:D :-4 ). The big ones are a bit more macho and just stand their ground. They let their legs fold in as I push in on them (just like women do:D :-4 ).

Eventually, they all get the idea and put out a leg on my hand so I can slide them up the side of the bathtub.

Then I have to evict them from my flat because they don't earn their keep by catching flies ('cos I don't get any).

Every day I have to do this. Every day I do a deal with them. Every day I have to evict them for not paying their 'rent'.

Never trust a spider, especially the huntsman.

Now why else would you turn off the "view sigs" feature? And who are "you people", exactly??

And the comment about the self-portrait to Rozz? How should all us uptight folk take that one?

It will become rather tedious if we have to keep asking you for clarification when you're joking and when you're not. Or maybe it's just that you're not that funny.
