The all-time record high temperature for Seattle WA. USA; set on 07-29-09.

The previous record high of 100°F (37.8°C) was set on 07-20-94; I made a big "to do" on my BBS about it back then - even creating a full graphics screen in RIP (Remote Imaging Protocol) format announcing that fact, which I displayed on 07-21-94.

Oh crap! I recognize them both!

The one on the left is a full-sized Maglite. You can tell by the bezel. Rest of the light is wrapped in duct tape. The one on the right is a 2D Inca with a rubber-coated body and head. It's a No-name model from China, with p*$$ poor output! I know.... That's the exact type of light in the patrol vehicle that I drive at my job!

Spiders we find in the deep woods. It was about 6 -7 inches long. I didn't want to put my hand close for a reference for personal reasons :)

Re: Random Pictures Thread Part III

All of these pictures a excellent. Very artistic too. That 6-7 in spider got my attention since we don't have web dwelling spiders that large here typically. Plenty of heavier bodied tarantulas and wolf spiders, but they're on the ground usually and so you can't walk into them at face level...lol.

Re: Random Pictures Thread Part III

Your sister must be quite a gal to get up that close without being grossed out by it. I probably only know one female that wouldn't be freaked out by that sight.

Surprisingly she's quite squeamish over bugs and spiders. I think having a camera between the bug and her is a little bit of security. Plus, I think it's therapeutic. Confront your fears, don't run away from them or the monsters get bigger. :p

Screw that. I'll just blow that thing up before it enters my house.

I had to limit my night hikes to the fall and winter time because you can't go in the woods here without there being a spider web everywhere you turn.
