I recently joined a group on Flickr called ‘Second Shotz‘. A source image is posted each week which is then digitally edited according to the whims of each group member. Below is my contribution for this week.

Jill came up with the title “Jimmyleggs”, which I think is possibly the best name EVER for a spider… especially a gigantic people-eating one. You’d think that it would be scary enough just running into a spider like that, but you’d be wrong: It’d be way scarier if you knew that his name was “Jimmyleggs”. Plus, when his fangs sucked down to the bottom of your brains, it would make the same sound that your straw makes at the end of a milkshake, and I think your legs would tend to dance around a little right then, causing anyone nearby to point and exclaim, “Ha! Jimmylegs!”

I worked so long on it last night that I thought it might be harmful to the environment if I didn’t recycle it here. It was definitely harmful to the future existence of my fourth child, who could have possibly been conceived last night, had it not been for my red-eyed wee-morning obsessive Photoshopping. Well… that, and Jill’s staunch opposition to the very idea of a fourth child at this time.

Thanks a lot, Jimmyleggs!
