There really is no shortage of candidates is there?......

A man with an apparent case of arachnophobia caused a fire at a suburban Detroit gas pump by putting a lighter to what he says was a spider near his fuel door. WJBK-TV reports Saturday that he escaped injury and his vehicle suffered little damage, but the gas pump was destroyed.

Pity the the whole lot did not go off ..... would have saved many others later on somewhere in his life time.

Well it appears "Brain Dead' twit hit the TV3 news tonight , one thing I noticed was was the 'Pegasus' logo off the petrol station , in the 1960s 1970s was the logo for the 'Atlantic' brand that used to be local to community's , course the 'Pegasus' was well known on the Lockheed C-121J Constellation that was with 'OPERATION DEEP FREEZE' that crashed on the ice in Oct 1970 ... No spiders live there.

Bloody hell

I don't think the gas station worker really knew how bad it gets in the real world "...or maybe, there are idiots everywhere?...." all that because off a Spider, they are one off the friendliest critters you could have , so for that twit its "Burn babe Burn" , well just a pity it did not.

I don't know about you Ian...

..but my House Spiders are the only creatures I have for my daily company!

I treasure them, and often discuss the events of the day with them....

...and they never argue with me....

...or want me to spend loadsa money on New Webs, etc... ...!
