Haha very funny, but I know for a fact that that thing about sneezing with your eyes open is an urban legend. Very entertaining, keep 'em comming!!!

Its just I never slept outside on the open with any cover so to speak. So I really doubt I ate a spider or a fly. .

if you were in the habit of sleeping outside, you would eat a lot more. i know for a fact ive swallowed a few. found a leg once.

another wierd fact:

if you feed enough baking soda to an animal incapable of vomiting, it explodes. the traditional victim is a seagul.

Hate to disappoint you, but seagulls (like all birds) *can* vomit - and do so if they get salmonella or e-coli poisoning amongst other things. They also regurgitate semi-digested food to feed their mate and their young, although this is different to vomiting which only occurs in sick birds.
