Whoa, that's some really cool shite.

On a side note, me and taka found a miniature version of one of those unholy motherfuckers scampering across the floor in this very room. What the hell is THAT about. Lucky there wasn't a gun around because I would have done like Lef and dumped a clip in it.

That's just what I've been told here, but I could be receiving bad information from the C.I.A. cause that is known to happen, I mean this is the military after all... we chase lies for a living weeee! Who knows... regardless I'd not be happy to see those things... I've found this.
A camel spider is a cross between a scorpion and a spider. It's about the size of your fist and it has large fangs. California has a smaller species of these, known as wind scorpions. So you probably did find something similar in your room. I believe they're called Camel Spiders because somehow the enter the camel while it is still alive... and
The spider will start eating into the camel's stomach and eat away at all the skin and muscle until, suddenly, the guts and all of the camel will fall out; completely surprising the rider, and to a larger extent the camel. So I guess the camel is just chillin'... walking along then, "oh crap there goes my guts." So yeah.. they suck none-the-less. Of course all that can be held as false from this...



Urban legends about the camel spider (properly termed a solpugid or solifugid) are as old as the proverbial hills, but they made a huge resurgence when vectored by American troops in Kuwait during Desert Storm. They're not quite as big as your hand (unless you're a five-year-old), and very shy and secretive. They do like to hide in the shadows, and they do run very, very quickly for a critter (they can reach about 10 MPH, the fastest known non-flying arthropod). They make no noise whatsoever, they have no venom whatsoever, and they do not eat flesh--they eat small desert arthropods like crickets and pillbugs. The rumors of their attacking camels, or crawling onto sleeping GIs' faces, apparently stem from one of two things, both of which may be true to some extent: (1) they may use hair to line their burrow when they are about to lay a batch of eggs, said hair being clipped from dead camels or other dead mammals (and a sleeping GI is not much different), and/or (2) dead camels are covered with flies, and crawling over a camel corpse may make for a convenient way to get a good meal of flies.
We have camel spiders in the sandy parts of the southwest U.S. and Mexico (in Mexico they are called matevenados), considerably smaller than the Middle Eastern types, but of the same shy, unassuming habits. Completely harmless and beneficial critters, like the desert equivalent of a praying mantis.
So yeah... who the hell knows... I agree with Carmi
