So we got our copies in today, and I had the strangest thing happen in all of my time handling books. I unwrapped the shrink wrap from one of our extra copies and slid the book out. Noticed there was something on the side of the book and brushed it away. It turns out it was a spider web, with a medium sized spider in it. Honestly that was a first. It's a great looking book though.
Dangit, I forgot to send you a bill for the spider. Thanks for reminding me!
Spiders eat other pests so I really have no issue with them.
Side story. For several months I would occasionally see a piece of toilet paper or a tissue on my back deck. Had no clue why. One day my wife walks past me to the back door with a tissue in her hand, opens the back door and tosses it out. She notices my puzzled look and explains that when a spider gets in the house she does not want to kill it so she humanely catches it and releases it out back, tossing the tissue she uses out. Mystery solved!
