    Kinda a cute song... until it mentioned the itch on top of your head... needless to say I flung my hair like everywhere. XD

    Sidenote: no, I do not like them, they are spiders and I am so not a fan of spiders... I scream like a little girl and dance around waiting for someone to come kill it, hahaha!

    I guess i was the 1 in 10 :)

    Funny song, and I do actually like spiders. Don't keep them as pets or anything but i appreciate them. They are natures cops rounding up all the undesirables ;) flies, mosquito, june bugs, etc... and their webs are works of art. Granted the Tarantula does not spin the traditional webs... but still :D Tarantulas are interesting though, there are over 800 species of them, some are docile and don't care to bite you unless you provoke them. Others are aggressive and you better keep your distance ;) But they don't really jump because they are quite fragile and can kill/injure themselves from a fall as short as a few inches.

    fun fact though: Most Tarantulas in the Americas have hundreds of sharp barbs on the end of their abdomen hairs, when threatened they can actually use their legs to fill the air around them with those barbs blinding the poor predator in the area.
