    Meryl has good musical taste. What a soulful woman! From Wikipedia: Hejira is the eighth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell. The songs on the album were written during a series of road trips in 1975 and 1976, and reflect events that occurred during those trips, including several romantic relationships she had at the time.

    Great answers Ms Streep, however: Really the scariest spiders are - Redbacks and Funnel Webs: both are Australian, can kill you and redbacks hide in sand pits and under toilet seats!

      Deserts, monstrous insects, killer octopi, ambush worms, blooms of deadly jellyfish, repugnantly sexist men...no thanks!

      Chilean recluse spider (mostly known in Spanish as the corner spider) also can kill you. In Chile we also have the (south) black widow.
