Spider "urban legend" comes to life

We've all heard stories about insects and spiders living in people's hair, or crawling in their ears and getting stuck. And usually you can take comfort in knowing it's just a story.
But a female motorcyclist actually had a spider living in her ear, which was discovered, like in many of the fake tales, when she complained of a headache.

A spider that crawled into a Greek woman's ear because it felt 'homy' in there... Just how long is the hair in this gal's ears, anyway? Maybe she ought to braid it before going out in public.

I will restrain myself from any more cracks. But boy, I wish jokester Larry Wilde was still with us. He'd have a field day with this.
