Well as a former 4-H mom that spent many nights in the open I would guess we've probably eaten them while awake too - in our food and drinks!  Soo not hard to believe we've had the yummy morsels in our sleep also. lol
Neat post ROCK!

I would guess if it were an itsy bitsy spider like the ones that went up the water spout, the calories would be minimal - and you wouldn't be apt to swallow those horrendous BIG hairy spiders so don't worry about those. ROFL

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
