Oh, what a tangled web we read!

My wife took the children to the library today. An old, shriveled woman who never was there before was serving as librarian. As my family went about their way getting new books to check out, a college-aged gal came in and asked, "Excuse me, do you have any books on spiders?"
"Why?" the librarian responded. "Are you having problems with them in your house?"
"No, they're for a school project," said the would-be borrower.
The aged lady drolled, "Oh, that's good. 'Cause you should call an exterminator."
"I don't like spiders," she finished.

What we have here is... failure to communicate!
