Confucius (traditionally September 28, 551 BC – 479 BC) was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher, according to Wikipedia.

He’s most commonly known for his fortune cookie predictions.

Here are some Google images.

    And not know to many people, he was an ass kicking samurai who travelled across China kicking ass and offering words of wisdom. Win-win I say

    That beetle is going to give me nightmares, hahaha. It looks like it would latch onto a person’s eyeball and try to pull it out of the socket. And yes, insects and arachnids freak me out as you can tell.

    No, that beetle would rip your head off. The pincers are much too big to pull out your eyeballs. LEB, you shouldn’t be afraid of insects or spiders – they are really smaller than you. Hey, if my wife can take out a centipede, you can take out a silly spider.

      almost as long as she is tall!

      I can take them out . . . with a long vacuum nozzle or shoe, haha. I’d just prefer if someone else would do it.

    Yeah, I heard her scream, thought “What the hell?” and saw her slipper fly through the air and just absolutely crush the thing. She is usually really scared of the things, but I guess this one surprised her and she just reacted. I am so proud.
