The taxes would only be meaningful if you were actually earning income from the limericks, I think.

If it ever comes to that, you could probably do well by collecting them and selling them via a "print on demand" service such as Lulu. We'd miss having 'em here, though

They only seem to be inspired by Paul's work- and then who outside of this pile of... whatever we are... would buy them?

Pretty much.
That's the peacock spider. They're roughly a tenth the size of the average human thumbnail. The males are the brightly colored ones and they actually do a dance shaking their abdomen, while waving their third pair of legs in the air.

There's another newly discovered member of Jumping spider with similar "paddles" on the 3rd pair of the male's legs called the peekaboo spider ( Jotus remus )

It's also worth mentioning that jumping spiders and wolf spiders are the smartest types of spider.

Pretty sure it'd be a "high two" being that most species of spider have two claws on each foot
