he should have gave us a better look of the beast before he flamed the sucker to ashes. Still hilarious though.

I would not have stopped in the sink, I would need to burn the rest of the building down.

Nasty lookin spider. I probably would have caught it somehow and fed it bugs. I love throwing grasshopers in a big cat spider web and watching the feast.

Wow...I stepped on something that big in my garage the other day...never thought about using a flame thrower tho??? I guess that eliminates the possibility of it runnin' up your pant's leg huh???

Good kill...

:rockon:

Later...Dave

flawless victory.

haha!

I hate spiders. A friend growing up got bit by a brown recluse (or solstice) on the top of his foot. Was one of the nastiest things I have ever seen. He had to have 2 reconstructive surgeries to repair the huge hole in his foot. I have had nightmares about that shit.

But, I have a pet grand daddy long-leg at work, that I feed grasshoppers and moths. I know that it can't hurt me, maybe that is why it doesn't bother me.

If it was a huntsman spider, they are harmless. That's easy to say, however, from behind a computer. Had I been in his position, I'd have done the same. That ****er was HUGE!

The Daddy Long Legs is one of the most venomous spiders known. More so than the Black Widow. But it's teeth can't cut human skin. Lucky break for us.
