By the way, does anyone need any cucumbers? My garden seems to be over run with them. I know there not a personable, as say, a spider, but they are good listeners :smile:

Yes, he has had many children. I hope one comes around to call on you.
My spiders here are friends with the cucumbers, who invite them to visit and spin for a while. A spider would never eat his friend, nor tell his secrets.

Perhaps someone pulled his legs a bit too hard, all 8 of them, and that's why he can't snuggle up with you anymore?

This thread reminds me of the book, Charlotte's Web, by E.B. White. That was one of my favorite books as a kid.

Oh, now I've got it!
He was straight and scored with a female spider last night.
Unfortunately, she ate him after they'd coupled.

Yes, it's a wonderful story about a very intelligent spider. She spells out messages in her web.

Can't say I approve of his choice of dates.
Females, who just want to devour you, body and soul??
I stay as far away from them as I can.
