    Its actually 7. But 7 is the national average per human in the US.

    Everyone really does, on average, CONSUME 7 spiders per year. Mostly during sleep.

    spiders are nothing compared to whats around in other countries...may I remind everyone of this fucked up creature...

    No the E.R doc did a thorough search of my hand and arm looking for a bite but ruled it out. Then I got the ultrasound test where they revealed a clot in my right arm exit vein from my bicep up through my shoulder and into my neck. If I get bit in that arm NOW it can be very serious:(

    The way Im thinking is: Feed Derek to it....THEN, as it will be in California, it will CLEARLY either kill itself due to the political wierdness in that state, become Governer, OR become an actor, and get hooked on drugs and die in a car crash........

    A spider would be a better governor than what we have at the moment.
