    I wouldn't go that far, LOL! But i'm with you on the black widow thing, I'm not afraid of venomous snakes because you usually get a warning before you get bit. But with venomous spiders they creep up on you and: WHAM! Yuo get pumped full of venom and you find yourself slowly dying in agony!

    I would! :wink: I never thought so until I actually held one. She was a very old female. I love the way she moved and felt in my hand, and I liked the fuzzy factor. And I actually did say, "Oh, how cute!"

    Well I almost held a turantula, but than I looked at the fangs... :shock: I know she wouldn't have bitten me but still. I just think turantulas are a bit to big of a spider for my taste. But ever man to his own right?

    I was thinkin the same think Will! I was thinkin it was an awesome twist of irony that you were attaching a nice doggy or kitty name to a BP. Then I opened it up & *shivvers* it wasn't.

    They aint my cup-o-tea but hey, if you enjoy em, do your think Raj!

    When my brother and I were younger we collected an empty margerine jar full of black widows (we had a lot of them out in Denver) obviously we didn't know they were black widows or even what black widows were so my mom walked out and my brother and I were just playing with this margerine jar with about ten to twenty black widows in it and they were crawling on us - not sure how many were females but she flipped! haha.

    {EDIT} This is the story as it has been told to me by my mom and dad I honestly don't even remember and spiders don't scare me, in fact they are pretty darn fascinating - I just think snakes are a bit more personable.

    no injuries to speak of though we were taken to the doctor promptly.
