true. My room back home as these really freaky spiders sometimes. They look like a cross of a criquet and a spider and a tank that runs and climbs really fast. I have nightmares when i'm at home that they are on me.

Nope! My dog kills the flies! And some spiders. I have to be careful of that though because we live in the Midwest. Brown recluses would be nasty for my puppy to get ahold of!
*sings softly* There was an old lady that swallowed a fly.....

Sounds like wolf spiders. Those suckers are ugly! I don't like them either.
I'd rather my dog kill them than me! Of course... I would just catch the bugs in a cup and leave them for my husband to kill. My husband knows that if he comes home and there's an upside down cup on the floor, there's something nasty under there for him to take care of.

ACK! Sicko... heh...
Nope, the worst time was when there was a spider in my car! I guess it had gotten in through the sun roof. I was driving and it slowly lowered itself right onto my face!

I capture them in a clear plastic cup and leave them there to warn off other spiders who might venture in to my basement.

Yea i have little spider tuture chambers. I'm just worried that word of the atroscities will reach other spiders and they decide to have a revolt in my basement and free their buddies. But i'm not too worried, i've been playig alot of of risk lately, i'll be able to out meneuver them.
Hey guys, I just had a little scare there. This thread had been limping along at about a half page a day and then I tune in and bam! six pages. So I immediately assume there'd been some spam episode like the dark days of page 29 (or whenever it was), and discover to my relief that the outburst was nothing of the sort...
An important lesson to be learned about all this: if the thread ever slows down again, it can easily be revived by discussing viscerally unpleasant topics. Today: suicide (sorry Johnny), wolf spiders and/or driving with spiders who may or may not be suicidal, and bugs generally. Topics I will stow away for the future: toenail infections, drunk-vomiting stories, and the best condiments to add to a placenta sandwich.
As for me, I like spiders, and generally items that have the qualifier "wolf" preceding them. Maybe it's just the Duran Duran in me, but I think I'd think computer monitors were cooler if they were called "wolfscreens". Or if instead of checking my front door for the newspaper, I was picking up the morning wolfsheet. And I'm 5'11". And am presently typing on my laptop in the bushes outside Smithy's house. I think that updates everything...
