Coconut Crabs, the World's Largest Arthropod. Thank God It's Not A Spider!
Honestly when Robot Nine reader Shannon sent me this information I thought it was fake, an online hoax. But a little research verified the amazing Coconut Crab! A huge crab, probably as large as any animal with a hard exoskeleton can be. They grow up to a three foot leg span and are known as "robber crabs" because they will venture into a home or tent and steal shiny objects.

American Gothic Parody.
Honey, Grab the Pitchfork and the Nikon, We are Taking a Picture.
'American Gothic' by painter Grant Wood is an iconic work that has been the subject of almost endless parody since it's creation in 1930. There have been stories in the news over the years of sister Nan's dislike of some of the parody (Nan posed as the farmer's wife), and occasionally it has ended up in court. Nan sued Johnny Carson and Look, Playboy and Hustler magazines. Some lawsuits were thrown out, one ended with a small settlement. Robot Nine has assembled a small collection of American Gothic parodies for you to enjoy.
