RIP to Nora Ephron, departed too early at 71. Ephron penned many screenplays, including that of arguably the best-written of the modern “chick flicks,”
When Harry Met Sally. But I hope she’s also remembered for her journalism and essays. Check out her early collections
Crazy Salad (1975) and
Scribble Scribble (1978) and you’ll see how good she was.
A previously undiscovered species of trapdoor spider
has been noticed by science, after spending countless millennia right under the nose of civilization, in Alabama.
So…
Monster-of-the-Week: …in honor of
Myrmekiaphila tigris, let’s give the nod to the titanic title character of Bert I. Gordon’s judicial-sounding 1958 opus
Earth vs. The Spider, a denizen of a cave close to a small town.
This is one hip arthropod—thought dead and stored in a high school gym, he’s revived by
the sound of a rehearsing rock band.
