Alien...
We again want to thank everyone for their efforts this past weekend, and Ed for putting the graduation photos online. I hope you all have recovered alright and are back into the swing of things.
Last night I came into the study to check the score on the Spurs/Sonics game and saw the creature posted here crawling on my wall. Sorry, but it didn't survive the night. Can someone please tell me what it is? I half expected for an alien to come popping out of my stomach in the middle of the night.

We had sooo much fun! We are soooo proud of John!
As for the visitor on the wall, it doesn't look like an American species to me. It looks like something that rode in on a foreign guest to the graduation. Irish, perhaps. It probably tagged a ride on your flowing black gown.

Ditto on the fun last week-end. As for the critter, I've seen them a time or two in San Antonio, but have to believe that something that bizarre looking must originate in New Jersey. Ed, can you clarify!!
Congratulations once again, and thanks for great hospitality last week-end.

Based on my recollection of 10th grade entomology, that looks like a mutated 27-legged Ephemeroptera larvae. They are generally harmless, however their sting is known to cause irrepressible urges to administer large quantities of hair spray.
I think the above anonymous commentor has correctly identified the critter.
We will know it has struck if Marg. starts stockpiling AquaNet.
