Am I the only one who feels very upset with those rappers/djs who take beautiful and (deservedly) popular songs, and “cover” them by just adding some of their useless blathers, taking advantage of the refrain?

Not that I had any intention of turning this into a blog about insects, but everyday nature has some surprise to show you here in the countryside. This giant spider was near the door! Look how big it is!

He’s on the fence of my balcony, right now. I don’t think he can live long with just one leg…or can he?

And here is how a cicada looks like. Usually it’s very difficult to see them, because as soon as you get close they stop singing and fly away, but I found this one, half dead, on my car this morning.
