In the house I'm in now, we've let the spiders grow webs all along the beam-level windows. The webs look really pretty with the sun glinting off of them, esecially during an especially spectacular sunset. Sometimes, a bug will happen along into the web (kind of the point, I guess). It's really a 'get-close-to-nature' experience to see animal survival a-la spider. But then my girlfriend isn't talking to me and my friends don't visit anymore... :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carl A.
