Douva 0 #1 May 2, 2006 It's a spider. It lives in my office. I can't tell if it's a boy spider or a girl spider, but I've named it Ralph. It can jump. Earlier he was running around on my desk, jumping from item to item. Then he ran over to me like he wanted me to do something, but spiders are lousy communicators, so if he did want me to do something, I couldn't figure out what it was. Finally, he gave up on me, walked to the edge of the desk, and stood there like he was contemplating it. I started chanting, "Jump! Jump! Jump!" And then he did. He did this kick-ass dive off the desk, and right before he hit the ground, he stopped in mid-air. He'd left an invisible web trail behind him. It was like some James Bond/Mission Impossible shit! I half expected him to shoot another web over to the filing cabinet and swing over there like Spiderman, but instead he flipped over, did some crazy kicking thing with his legs, cut the web, fell to the ground, and ran off. I wonder if I fed him some radioactive waste and then let him bite me if I could do that.I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.

Zipp0 I think it was more a new breed of sport, a cross between base and bungee. Since his web really did not have any recoil it's not really bungee. However he did not fashion a little chute and deploy it, but in a way he sort of did. That spider is one bad motherfucker.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
