About Me
- cammar
- Born and raised in Italy, I became an engineer and worked 11 years in the IT industry. Sick of that, in 2001 I wanted to take a year off and spend it in Maui, the best windsurfing spot in the world. Not only I'm still here (in Maui), but I also got into surfing. And the stoke is flying high. Life is too short to work 8 hours a day...

What was the insect?
A baby centipede.
Now I appreciate you won't like my policy on life BUT if I had a web that size in my home I wouldn't ask anyone to tea before I had removed the bugger. Have you thought of going round your home with a mop and duster or, I suspect, those are tools that don't exist in either your vocabulary or cupboards!
Good film though - I'm on the side of the centipede and just hope it escaped even though it might have had to limp.

No wind or waves?
I like the deep social commentary and ending with the to the point "I thought he was F*cked." Laughed out loud when I heard that.
I agree with Mater X though. Dude - you need to do some cleaning. Although having lived in Haiku, it's impossible to totally get rid of the creepy crawlies.
Spiders really don't bother me and I don't like killing them.
At one point I started catching them by the legs to relocate them outside, but often the legs detached from the body and I was like:"OMG, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!"
That's my excuse not to clean too often...
GP,
It's not that I don't appreciate your film and the social commentary, but I kept getting distracted by the sound of wind in the background. Can you tell I haven't windsurfed in more than a month???
have to live with the creepies, may as well accept it. i only kill flies, and spiders do a good job of that so i dont remove spiders either. LOL i liked i thought he was F&^^'d comment too funny.
Funny, in Maui I pretty much don't kill anything around the house, but here in Portland I'm willing to nuke about any bug. And the stuff in Maui is about ten time sastier--or at least spookier. At my house I have the centipedes that are about the size of a good cigar. Fascinating buggers.
I love the cane spiders, they're so fast. Not so wild about crab spiders. I like the huge black bees, and I could watch dragonfies for hours. I'd love to have their equipment.
If you need to move something outside the easiest way is to put a wineglass over it--move slowly and they won't see it coming. Press it flat to the wall, then slide a piece of paper under it so you can carry it outside. I'm a pro at this.
