Itsy Bitsy Spider

The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout.
Down came the rain, and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun, and dried up all the rain
And the itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again.

Hi...it's the holidays soon, almost 10 weeks or so and I don't know what to do. Dad says we're going to Phuket for a couple of weeks, I hope I can ride a lot of Jet Ski.

Today I want to tell you all about the ITSY BITSY SPIDER. ITSY BITSY means small and it's the story about a spider who climbs up and then he's getting washed down by rain and then he climbs up again and again and again. Don't confuse it with SPIDERMAN.

My dad says the story is a childrens "classic". Available as a song, storybook, web side etc., check it all out here. There is also a Wikipedia entry.

So what's the punchline: Never give up. Don't be a spider. Eat your vegetables.

Tobias Verdict: Better a big nasty spider than an itsy bitsy spider.
Rating: No rating

Final word: If you see a spider, don't step on it. It eats flies and mosquitos and is a useful addition to any house.
