    A woman I know says she did a weeks worth of cardio exercise after walking into a spiders web in the yard! I would have liked to see a video of that!

    Obviously I don't mind spiders. For several months I watched one female in a corner of the cellar. She would catch various bugs that inhabited the darkness. The bug count mounted as time progressed. Eventually she made a cocoon for her brood. She disappeared but the egg cluster remained. One morning the eggs hatched and a gazillion spiders emerged. They must have been cannibals as the spider count decreased over time. The entire web disappeared one day, the victim of a cleaning broom, :-( but the cellar has more then one spider. :)

    I certainly get some serious workouts when I accidently walk into spider webs. Eeewwww... I avoid them as much as possible. The spideys in my yard have a very nasty habit of stringing their webs up after dark. And something was crawling up my leg last night... It took a bit to discourage it.
