This might be another shark and helicopter story, but there's a story about giant spiders in Iraq.

Wow. Just..wow.

Everything I was going to write about just got completely knocked out of my head, so I may post again later. I really sort of hope they're not real for the soldier's sakes, but I hope they are real because..wow..how cool is that?

  Truth about Camel Spiders
  So most of it seems another urban legend, though I can imagine it still can be pretty scary, especially for arachnophobes.
  Too bad, that. The image of a giant screaming spider running at you at 25 MPH would be something quite impressive.
  The photo itself is a perspective trick.

  I read the truth. It's okay, the truth is pretty cool, but hey, I think the idea of giant stuff is pretty neat, all "Lost World"-y, ya know?
