I, OTOH, am a fan of big bugs. The People's Republic of Berkeley has retail outlet, The Bone Room, that feature skulls, skeletons, and framed large bugs among other things. I've bought a few of the near fist sized beetles in framed displays as Christmas presents for one of my nieces who has an odd sort of artistic temperament.

Cool story.
