I saw this, then looked up Daddy Long Legs. There is an actual spider that resembles the Daddy Long Legs, and here is what the site says about it: "There is no reference to any pholcid spider biting a human and causing any detrimental reaction. If these spiders were indeed deadly poisonous but couldn't bite humans, then the only way we would know that they are poisonous is by milking them and injecting the venom into humans. For a variety of reasons including Amnesty International and a humanitarian code of ethics, this research has never been done." (http://spiders.ucr.edu/daddylonglegs.html)

Depends on my mood. Plus it changes it up. It's the little things that have the most meaning, ya know? But after this post, I might start using those names that people use in advice columns. "From Insecure in Ohio." "From Heartbroken and Angry." That sounds more fun than using my real name. Leave a Reply. |
