Welcome to hell or as close as you can get

[Tiamat]

Hell is Djibouti on the horn of Africa where temperatures exceed 100 degrees 9 months of the year and the highs in the summer exceed 120. Course they report in Celsius which makes it sound cooler. The natives have no cooling devices, which is why there aren't very many of them. Add to that the spiders, three species of which are bigger than a human head, and the snakes to include the black mamba, and nobody goes there by choice.

Well then may I say that we are indeed on t he road to Djibouti! We hit 107 at the official temprature takers and at the television station it hit 109 so I'd say we are definatly on the road Oh and I had a huge tarantula on the side of my house the size of a baseball so does that count

Can we do this thread in, you know, proper temperature units?

[Zkribbler]

How did the settlers do it way back when?

How many places have you driven passed that have broken wagon wheels decorating their front yard? Broken wagon wheels. That should give you a clue.

It is in proper units for America you wanker!

Baseball-size tarantulas are part of a clear step in the hellish direction.

We have the heat + 70% humidity (sometimes 80%). Sounds like it's time to go jump in the ocean.

Not if you have a decent pepper sauce to eat them in.

Spiders are good watchdogs, they eat all kinds of nasty bugs that try to get into your home
Having said that, I have to admit that any spider found strolling around the inner sanctum of my home will be subjected to the highest degree of punishment

I suppose it helps living in a place without poisonous spiders. But I'm serious though, I have a whole bunch of spiders living around the windows and balcony of my apartment and virtually no bugs manage to get through their strict surveillance network and inside the apartment.
As I said though, if I find any spiders waltzing around the kitchen or my bedroom the rest of their miserable lives will be short and full of excitement

[Tiamat]

It's tough to choose between the spiders or the, and I don't know how to frikin' spell it even tried to look it up but Cyoates. Help me out here Sloww with the spelling. They come up in our back yard and on our deck.
