Tarantula sighting and no darn picture!

I saw a tarantula today, and when I announced that fact, Callie said she almost ran over two tarantulas on Sunday.  Is it correct to assume they come out after a rain?

Time For Outrage Indignez-vous!
by Stephane Hessel

All 29 pages of it.  It's got to be the shortest book for adults ever written.
While I wasn't disappointed by the length of it, on account of some of the other hefties on my to-read list, I was a little disappointed by the contents. I agreed with his every word...but there just weren't enough words to agree with.

But I respect his right to speak out.  At ninety-three years old, he's got a right to speak and we have an obligation to listen.
