I caught another wolf spider in the yard yesterday - this one about 3" across. I walked up to the wife who about jumped on the garage roof! Later I caught it again to show the kid, and she told me if it went near her again I'd be needing first aide.

I turned her loose (the spider) and showed the wife where to find it if she ever wanted.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It started moving and I couldn't understand how a stick had legs, and the **** thing was walking. LOL I jumped off the sofa like a crazy wild women yelling. He thought that was funny but not me. I was not happy. He's also brought a black snake into the house to show me. I took off down the hallway screaming. I think he's trying his best to give me a heart attack.
That's like when I brought a 5 1/2 foot long, pregnant, Northern Pacific rattlesnake home, and housed it in an aquarium under the workbench in my pristine clean garage. When my wife saw it, she said "Is that what I think it is?!? I said "Not if you think it's a smallblock V8". BAAAAaaaahd choice of words!

She went two weeks without saying nare-a-word to me, MAN was she mad!!

CGO has gotten used to going haywire on me every time I turn around! I can't help it, and I always get so excited I forget that she doesn't WANT to see my latest find! It gets real QUIET around here on a regular basis. But I wouldn't bring a rattlesnake home, because I REALLY don't want to get shot five or six times!

I think the maddest my wife ever got on me (for doing things like this) was when she opened her freezer compartment in the fridge and saw several mice and sparrows setting on top of the food she was going to cook for supper.

Gee, you think she never kept snake food for someone before.

My granddaughter has a cornsnake, and they keep the baby mice in the freezer. I can't wait to hear what CGO says when she goes to visit, and opens the freezer door!

All that jumping ought to keep her young...LOL

So Bob, how come you haven't told everyone about our trip home from the gun show where you had to stop because two turtles were humping in the road?

Darn it, I forgot! Hey everybody, me and Bunny come up on two box turtles bumping shells in the middle of the road! And the miserable little male scooted off, and left his honey all alone in the path of the big old truck! But being a gallant fellow, and being backed by a brave woman, with a gun I might add, I saved the little damsel in a shell from being squished on the road! And if I could have caught him, I'd have kicked the other coward's shell up between his shoulders, if he had any! LOL!

How was that story, Bunny? I think I got it pretty straight forward and factual! Hee Hee Hee!!!

It was cute until Mister one night stand turtle took off like his pants were on fire. I never saw a turtle move that fast. Men yes, turtles no.

Hahaha! There are some fast footed men in this world! Usually because they don't want to get shot, or beat to death with a cast iron frying pan! But on the other hand, I'll NEVER be able to look at another box turtle with out this hilarous moment popping into my head! I hope I NEVER see two armadillers.......it would be too much to bear, and would prob'ly end up being a nightmare!

I HAD to put armadillers in there, since we got so far off subject! LOL!

I was so shocked to see that kind of behavior in broad daylight, it never dawned on me to grab the camera! But we got a good laugh out of the chicken male tucking it in and running like the wind! I never seen such a cowardly act in any critter! Oh, except maybe humans....
