You are never farther than 20 feet from a spider at any point in your life.

Most people will eat at least one spider in their sleep at some point in life.

A house once contained over 2000 brown recluse spiders and the inhabitants were never bitten once.

Edit: Also there are microscopic bugs on your eyelashes right now. Don't blink too hard or they will fall into your eyeball.

-Approx. only 15% of the world practices circumcision.
-A Jelly fish is 95% water.

Fair enough, I guess a possible exclusion for the Atacama desert as well, but not too many people in those locations are likely to read this. :)

I think it was Nat Geo's factoid, so I dunno. I'd be careful. :nervous:

Edit: Airplanes would be a prime place to find a spider I would think. Maybe even an exotic one without a known anti venom. :) Check your luggage before bringing it home.
