I would have just stood outside that MF'ing house with the cat while the place burned down. Even with that nice strat in it.

Good story tho.

Ace is just trying to throw you guys off with the green dot question. I think this sums up nicely what is really on Ace's mind

click me

I took a look around outside, and couldn't find any big spiders, but I did find this stick insect again. He's been hanging around the same place for 3 weeks now. He's around 15cm (6") long with his front legs out like that. He sways in the breeze too. Cool insect, but if you think big... Well Roidster's homeland hosts the world's largest Stick Insects at up to 27cm (11")!

Bravery? No, it's just fun. I've got a pet spider that lives under my bed. He crawls all over me at night. He's not one of the little ones, either... he's one of those big hairy brown ones the size of a half dollar. He's so cute... :D
