Thanks to nogodsnomanagers for completing the countryside clinical trials on my spider conundrum, I can now release the data received.
In the UK we recon on the average person consumes 2 to 3 spiders during the night , this increases to 6 or 7 if the subject lives in the country side.
It was observed that an average of 5 spiders were present at any one time in the country side and an average of only 1 in the city. This data was then put though numerous and painstaking probability equations and cross referenced against numerous Gaussian and Poisson distribution curves to come up with the made up figures presented above.
The results lead me to no real conclusions apart from the obvious being that its all a bit icky.
What does strike me is how easily we deal with hideous event such as this, for no other reasons than we are asleep, so therefore it doesnt really concern us.
Maybe if we were asleep during other hideous events in our lives we would cope with them in a similar fashion, distancing ourselves purely out of ignorance.
I am referring to events such as relationship problems, terminal disease, redundancy and to a greater extent big brother.
Then again maybe thats why god invented television , pop music and cheesy discothques.
Whatever?

Actually, this does kind of scare me, considering that spiders are EVERYWHERE here in SK. And I mean huge ones, man--hand-sized monsters that cause you to dodge webs they spin across 2-lane roads at night.
