Lynnesin is the bravest person I know
Lynne and "The Ex" were in bed (not together), and Haruka and I were talking to them, when we noticed the biggest spider ever on the wall. Seriously, it was almost the size of a tarantula. Normally, I kill spiders for Haruka and "The Ex," but even I wasn't going near this one.

Lynne got up and caught it in a cup, then carried it outside, using ONLY HER HAND(!) to cover the top. Lynne says it's because she once took invertebrate biology and had to deal with Fiddler Crabs. "The Ex" was a marine biology major and worked with Fiddler crabs. Haruka used to have them in one of her fish tanks. They both agree Fiddler Crabs are WAY less scary than giant spiders.

1. Actually there was a brochure from the hotel between my hand and the cup
The spider was more scared than we were. And spiders do so many wonderful things like kill nasty bugs that do bad things to us.

BTW - shouldn't you be honeymooning some right now??

5. We'll be going on a honeymoon in the spring
I can't get paid time off yet with my new job. The parental units gave us a nice chunk of change to do something with.

8. Did she check the spider's receipt?
Nothing cuts into the bottom line like the ol' eight-legged discount.

12. I've come to conclusion it's New Jersey
Think about it - you can't leave the state without paying a toll to one of your neighbors. Hell I had to pay 75cents to take route 80 back into PA.

Perhaps your neighbors in PA, NY and DE are trying to tell you folks something....

13. PA is worth 75 cents -- you can drive a few hundred miles across PA
DE costs $8 to drive 10 miles, which will take 30 minutes, because of only one lane being open at the toll plaza.

14. Where the hell are you paying $8? Unless you're lumping in that one from Maryland
We don't have the $5 toll in the middle of 95 - that is clearly in the state of MD
