When I was a child, I would catch scorpions, centipedes and millipedes and put them in a glass jar to fight each other.

There was also a time when I played pickup football games in a large field between a friend and my houses. One time, I caught the ball and immediately fell into a bush covered with giant spiders. It was scary.

Oh, and there was a time when I lifted up a board and my hand was less than an inch away from a scorpion.

Fun times in the desert.
