Yeah, I know, but they still creep me out. They make you wonder what's going on under there, and then you see it and it's like freaking Alien vs Predator. Half a billion years, time for a redesign.

Actually, my fear sent me off on an internet tangent that led to a cool article about some unique chemical properties of their baby blue blood, and how our lives pretty much depend on it. Then I wound up in some strange places around the webs and went on a roller coaster ride of emotions, but I'm back now safe and sound. Whew, what a day.

Wow!! Awesome, what an honor! Thanks Apollo, I'm glad I entered this week! The only downside is that I can't enter this week. haha I guess it just gives me extra time to get some pictures for the next week!

I'm excited to see what kind of entries this week brings, I know it won't be easy to pick a winner! Thanks again Apollo, and I can't wait to see all the entries!

But yeah, they creep me out too!

Maybe your instincts realize they're more kin to spiders than crabs, but as such maybe they're kin to spyders :spyder: ;) ?

The BBQ is fine and the Pingo is nice too. We just wish you'd include some ribs or grilled veggies once in a while ;)
