I know what you mean, but I was up at the other end of the state in the woods. Most of my friends had only 4 legs...!

The biggest spider I've ever seen was on Okinawa- they called it a banana spider, and it was as big as a dinner plate. Don't know if they were aggressive, because I was high-stepping in the opposite direction. They also have a snake there called the Habu- a cousin of the cobra I think. Used to go to their festivals and watch the Habu-mongoose fights.

Spiders...YECH!!!!! But they are easy to step on.

My problem is the webs they weave. They put them where ever they like and I walk into the web and that makes me mad. I hate getting that sticky, almost invisible spider silk all over my face.

Just be glad you don't find one of those Camel spiders running through your kitchen!

I hate spiders but I'm not nearly as jumpy about them after this summer. I worked in a hydro dam and saw alot of them and I would kill as many as I could. I guess they weren't big size wise compared to some that are out there but for where I'm from they were pretty big.

I'm not sure that the spieder would consider you as a friend. And the way that he would let you know is undesireable.

I Hate Spiders!!!

They are coming indoors now that it is getting colder. One ran across the living room floor while I was watching TV in the dark, it tried to carry off one of my slippers.

Better than seeing me run across the living room floor. I would have tried to carry off one of your daughters (that is...if you have any of legal age). So see? Spiders are better to have in the house instead of horny, would-be boyfriends.
