Noticed! At last!


I got a mention in the latest issue of the college newspaper, the University Register. Only in the April Fools’ issue, unfortunately, and they misspelled my name, of course.

“The only current known readers of the UR are PZ Meyers and one of his spiders.”

Not mentioned is that PZ Meyers only manages to skim the paper 5 days after it was published.

Or that the spiders only read at a first grade level, so far.

    Can eight eyed erudite speedy spiders speed read sparsely spaced new arachnid news & if so which specific species?

    (Tongue-twister challenge.)

    I like to pick up my campus paper since they started including a crossword puzzle.

    Total fake news! Two spiders read that paper and one is currently reading at the second grade level, which places it at a level higher than the administration staff.

    If your spiders only read at a first grade level, you need to start feeding them second-graders.

    The spelling has a simple explanation. PZ is liberal, so they think he must be Jewish.

    And why is Death not accompanied by Death Of Rats?*
    “SQUEAK!”

    Ordinary Death: “ARE YOU GOING TO FEED MANY MORE FLIES TO THE SPIDERS? I HAVE A BUSY SHELDUE DURING EASTER.”

    I love the implication that the other spiders have better things to do with their time.
