One time I saw a tarantula that survived three years without food, and it must’ve been from a far distance because it wouldn’t even have made it to two years if I had been around it and it was loose.
Measuring the temperature of a lightening bolt may well be in our sphere of scientific abilities, but I question the ability to measure the temperature of the surface of the sun. Unless they went at night.
One wonders if this is where the Crunchy Frog sketch by Monty Python’s troop is from. Toad Vomit lozenge to Ram’s Bladder Cup with its garnish of Lark’s Vomit.
Interesting sun fact: the atmosphere of the sun is 300 times hotter than the surface. The core is 27 million degrees. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/sounding-rockets/strong-evidence-for-coronal-heating-theory-presented-at-2015-tess-meeting

Toad vomit lozenges? Did they work? They cured bubonic plague?

Now I know why Isaac Newton flunked out of Med School and became a Scientist.
Those lozenges must have been precursors to the jelly beans on Harry Potter.

I was gonna say “didn’t we talk about Newton earlier this week?”, but I realize now that was Get Fuzzy.

I wonder if Newton inspired Monty Python’s Whizzo Chocolate sketch? Did he invent Crunchy Frogs, too?

This is why we see no spider’s bar and grill.
Newton was skillful using hummingbird feathers.

If I had some tarantula genes my jeans would fit better.

Tarantula feeding habits: Believe it.
Lightning temperature: Believe it.

I knew the lightning fact, but the tarantula was so interesting, I have to add this to my saved comic strips.
