When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

He went off the rails — for love.

The MTA worker who claimed he was attacked in a Queens subway station by an unhinged stranger — going as far as to slash his own hands — all so he could get the summer off told The Post he had a “plausible reason” for the hoax.





Henry Herring, 54, in an interview Tuesday, said he needed the time to take care of his sick fiancée. 

“I know what I did looks like something very horrible, whatever,” the Brooklyn man admitted. “But I have a very good reason for what I did.”

The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

No longer ‘half slave, half free’
