A launch point 10/12/2015
Wait patiently and good things come to you wrapped up in juicy packages. I abducted a spider's web the other day and gave it to a snake we were observing for the week. (That beats me crawling around looking for spiders in all of my corners, though it does solve an issue.) I like to…
