But Was The Police Operation A Sting?

A Romanian teenager who collects spiders faces charges of assault with a deadly weapon after threatening friends with a pet tarantula. Daniela Muntean, 17, carried the tarantula, which she had bought on an Austrian holiday, in a small plastic box. Police also seized several smaller, but equally dangerous, spiders she kept in glass cages.

Speaking of your Mum, BT,

Do give her my love and say I hope she's feeling better.

Keep smiling

I knew a woman in college who brought a pet tarantula to her dormitory. Her roommate moved out the next term!
