and with her great hand eye coordination, also knocked out the camera, destroyed CTC, derailed an SD70MAC and put a crack in her tuffet! Spider meanwhile is recovering from injuries suffered from falling off his perch laughing!

I wouldn't have really ahve noticed it if you hadn't said something, but it is interesting that it's there. So does this mean that sometime here we'll be watching the cam and a hand will suddenly pop up in a frame, go side to side and then leave again as quick as it came?

I presumed that the women up there maybe had a little more winter layering than the SoCal girls do, but man...that's just plain cold hearted.....[;)]

Hi everyone,

It looks like a spider or other little insectoid has taken up residence on the lens of our Rochelle webcam, causing a portion of the image to be obliterated by a big black spot.

We really should climb up there with a rag and a bottle of window cleaner, but that will probably take a while. If any of you happen to be around Rochelle and have a good-sized squirt gun, please send me a message (through the profile link below) to let me know if you can give us a hosing.

Thanks!

Mike Yuhas
