Texas, home to worthless professional football teams (Dallas Cowgirls) and second-tier BBQ, is also home to one gigantic spider web:
If you hate creepy-crawlies, you might want to avoid Lake Tawakoni
State Park where a 200-yard stretch along a nature trail has been
blanketed by a sprawling spider web that has engulfed seven large
trees, dozens of bushes and even the weedy ground.But if you hate mosquitoes, you might just love this bizarre web.
"At
first, it was so white it looked like fairyland," said park
superintendent Donna Garde. "Now it’s filled with so many mosquitoes
that it’s turned a little brown. There are times you can literally hear
the screech of millions of mosquitoes caught in those webs."
Oh, how I’d love to hear the harmonic screech of millions of mosquitoes. Sounds to me like Texas-style justice for the little bloodsuckers. The only thing better would be to hear similar screeching from the Cowgirls as the Redskins crush them on November 18 and December 30.
