Well, sure, click.
Ordinarily I am a huge fan of Napoleon Bonaparte's spiffy Metric System, but I am in a nasty mood and don't feel like converting from my American living room's old-fashioned English feet.
So if you want the 3 slices of pizza with the shallots, do this in feet, to a precision of 100ths of a foot. (Don't mess with silly inches.)
The technical term for a shortest length between two points is a geodesic. Icky spider needs a geodesic here.

Across the floor to the corner under the end point, then straight up the wall. He could go up the ceiling, but spiders are lazy and why fight gravity if there's no bugs up there.
(I'm a theorist, I'll let the proof and the decimals bite someone else, thank you. I don't care for shallots anyway nor do i believe your pizza will compete with mine, thanks anyhow :)
Saw yer comments on Rhe's blog, thanks for sharing, pure quill fairy tales are far better than the namby pamby versions pushed on us today. Personally I must argue for the "Rocky & Bullwinkle" versions but thats a religious thing.
Wanted to point out: you really need to learn to make links... HTML tags are not that hard and the cliky linky experience is so much more attractive to your average reader...
(Rhe says you're a "kitten on meth" and don't take the time to do HTML often; i can see the similarities to myself: I rarely take the time to make much sense)
You are wordy and prolix, and you are wrong. Your path for the spider is considerably longer than the shortest possible path the spider could take from its corner to the opposite corner, always touching a wall, ceiling, floor or edge where planes meet.
But thanks for guessing!
I don't think "Fractured Fairy Tales" ever meant to really reflect the spirit of genuine fairy tales, the writer (Ponsonby Britt maybe?) was just using famous fairy tales to tell jokes. Which is a worthy aim, I liked FFT. The voicever was the famous movie comedian Edward Everett Horton.

Forgive me, this has been The Week From Heck and has left me in a somewhat raw mood. But your wrong and confident answer to the PizzaQ cheered me up considerably.
Somebody showed Wolfgang Pauli a new theory of quantum physics and asked for Pauli's opinion.
"It's not even wrong," Pauli replied.
I do have links. And just last month I finally figured out how to put up the list of other peoples' blogs and websites. That only took me five years to master.
Listen, about the HTML thing ... I'm old and time is short and I just can't waste it on HTML and operating systems and GUI crap and stuff. I got serious work to accomplish with my amazing new Supercomputer which is the envy of real estate agencies and dental practices throughout the Connecticut River Valley.
I have to learn a new high-level programming lingo, and HTML sure as hell ain't it. As far as I'm concerned, this blogspot thing is just a word-processing template which acts as a fairly clumsy vehicle for the stuff I want to write and the silly pictures I make.
If I spent too much time becoming expert at HTML or the blogspot bells and whistles, the blog might look slick, which is absolutely the last thing I want it to look like. I hate slick. I like cheap and sleazy.
We will discuss your favorite toppings when you actually win some pizza.
