Friday Five

You know, I thought about doing the Friday Five, but we've already gone over recently my favorite song, scent, TV show and quote (by the way...God help you if you misquote something without even meaning to quote something around these parts....).

My favorite food is spiders. Wolf spiders, preferably. Because they aren't ridiculously feisty, aren't all that adept at running away from things, and have a good deal of meat on them, as spiders go, anyway. But in a pinch, any spider will do. I'm not picky.

Except about tarantulas. Won't eat them. For one thing, their size is prohibitive. To me, a tarantula is to most spiders what buses are to cars. Except imagine a bus that eats low flying airplanes, and some of them having the ability to shoot little poisonous hair-like extensions of their exoskeletons at predators or prey.

And for another, regular spiders are so tasty. A tarantula would probably be too much of a good thing, and just go to waste.
