It's in the Jar!

Mason jars continue to hold treasures and unknown dangers - everything from gurgling liquids to captive insects - all contained for relatively safe investigation. 

The jar above is clearly in the dangerous liquid category - well, at least the labelling on the container implies danger.  The Jolly Roger emblem is a "dead" give-away!  (yep, I really did that pun..)

The cute spider in the jar above looks pretty perky, however his jar needs some holes in the lid to remain perky for very long....perhaps this jar also needs the warning logo as in the first jar!

The bug jar above also needs some air holes and probably some protective petitions if these specimens are going to last for any length of time, however since no webs have been cast, this is either very early in the capture, all of the insects are already dead OR this provides a macabre opportunity to watch spiders be aggressive.

OK, this jar is a tribute to Charlotte of Charlotte's Web fame.  I don't imagine E.B. White had cornered the market on text-generating web-spinners.  In fact, this could actually be considered a testimony to the shelf-life of the children's novel. 

And finally, a jar of swirling, gurgling goo that has already had a negative effect on J. Roger's left eye.....perhaps this is where the eye patch originated and not the most current theory about being dark-vision ready in the height of pillaging and marauding events. 

Pretty sad that there is not one jar holding tomatoes, peaches, or delicious beets, ah?  Did you can some of those this year?
