As for me my shop is packed up.

It's a House Centipede, they get more legs with every molt (i think of to 13 pairs for this species). They are predators, eating insects, in your basement. they are harmless to you unless you grab it, when it might give you a bite, which will probably hurt (I've never tried to get bitten by one to find out) but is otherwise harmless.

Imagine one trying to ride a bike, Is there a word for a 13 crank-set tandem style bike, or is it just a "13 person tandem"?
