During a U.S. raid on a suspected biological weapons lab, an Iraqi scientist  
was bitten by a camel spider. Though there is yet no proof that biological  
weapons were actually being created in the lab, the scientist has begun to  
exhibit strange side-effects presumably related to the spider bite…

Does whatever a camel spider can…_

Uh, what _can_ a camel spider do?

😃

Anyhoo…

No problem. I’m just glad all those paint chips I ate as a child are finally doing some good.
