    I consider myself an arachnophile. That thing is pretty awesome, and I'd love to have those things crawling around my yard.... right up to the point where they think my ankle need to get crushed between those coconut-shearing claws of theirs.

    WHat I don't get is how something that big is hanging on a rubbermaid-style trashcan without it tipping over? What's in that can that's so heavy?!?

    I hate islands

    When I was in Crested Butte, Colorado a few months ago there was a sign in the lobby where I was staying reminding us to put the lids on garbage cans to keep the bears out. Now this??

    If they are edible, why are they not comercially sold?? They wouldn't last long in Maryland! we are ravinous crab eaters. I don't think I could eat a dozen of those though, although I'd certainly try.

    Why does it seem like all the really cool animals have some douchebag in some douchbag culture somewhere think that it's an aphrodisiac? Really? You need to eat a 60 year old sea-bug to get a boner?

    What I want to know is why is it all the cultures that could really stand to keep it in their pants once in a while are the ones who will try anything as an aphrodisiac?

    Who was it that said they hated anything with too many or to few legs? (spiders and snakes mostly)

    never seen one of those before. GRM is a deep pool of wisdom...and ignorance. But thats for another thread. (Gets sledge hammer and bucket o'butter) That thing could be tasty with a little bacon...

    Not trying to be (too) picky, but a crab is a crustacean not an arachnid.

    Spiders are creatures I generally leave alone unless they (or their webs) are in my way. Crabs are creatures that require cooking; with butter sauce.

    The crab pictured in this thread would require a lot......

    Seriously, with Tobasco butter, are they edible?

    I ate a 4lb. lobster recently, damn claw was as big as my hand. I would tackle a coconut crustacean. Then again if he can crack open a coconut, it's probably tough as an old editor.
