Yeah, I've seen this happen with the baby spiders on the momma's back. It's the stuff of nightmares. And I love "Charlotte's Web" as much as the next person, but there is NO WAY I'm letting ANY of those things stay alive in my house! (Plus my son got bit by a brown recluse when he was in kindergarten... I need to blog about that sometime....) <BR/><BR/>Anyway, sounds like what you had in there was a Wolf Spider.... I actually ran into a CRAZY LADY down in Tybee Island that kept those things as PETS (no joke). I blogged about it early in August. She was a little on the "nuts" side, you could say.... :-)<BR/><BR/>Great blog! :-)<BR/><BR/>-HWHLHWHLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07294913024458099382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-125153329946432061.post-17511571526475294302008-09-08T19:05:00.000-04:002008-09-08T19:05:00.000-04:00Aww...roach guts make you think of me...how touchi...Aww...roach guts make you think of me...how touching.<BR/><BR/>I'm pretty sure you meant that in a positive way, Tinkguy.

I squirted roach guts all over my left hand.<BR/><BR/>Then I thought of your blog entry.tinkguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13594672426815853197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-125153329946432061.post-10606574811348978382008-09-04T12:48:00.000-04:002008-09-04T12:48:00.000-04:00Oh gross.

I recall one time when I was about 7, a spider that was more legs than body was in the bathroom at my parents' house. This was in the middle of the night when I HAD to get up to pee, otherwise I would've stayed in my bed. I was so paralyzed with fear that I screamed for my dad to help me for what seemed like 5 minutes. Poor man, I awoke him from a sound slumber I'm certain, so he could simply CHASE the spider out of my sight versus any arachnicide. Of course, I also envision their plotting the attack while under the Trojan Spider..."you take the left flank, you follow the right, and I'll take these guys with me towards the bathroom"Feisty Irish Wenchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689381839029507940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-125153329946432061.post-39457276782267403972008-09-03T22:23:00.000-04:002008-09-03T22:23:00.000-04:00ROFLMAO Sorry for what sounds like a lack sympathy...ROFLMAO Sorry for what sounds like a lack sympathy/compassion but it drew a vivid mental picture that is just hilarious.
