Black Widow Spider - Latrodectus mactans
I got tired of seeing that bloody eye looking back at me every time I open this site so here is a picture of a black widow spider, Latrodectus mactans that I took at my house a couple of years ago.
Cacoethes Cognitum
The irrational yet irrestible urge to know or make known. The CC is a "club" founded by a small group of medical professionals, who have made a pastime of turning medical cases and discussions into medically irrelevant history lessons, philosophical rants, and displays of one-upsmanship. The official premise, since the "club" was named, has been to exchange and discuss various books, movies, and ideas. Sometimes we eat sushi.
