Re: The spider that ...
WTF kind of spider was that?  It was probably harmless, but it was too big for my comfort.
Time to respray.

Re: The spider that ...
Once, when on a trip in San Jose, I drove up into the hills. As I entered one of the parks (in my rental vehicle), I spotted a tarantula in the middle of the road. As I drove over it, I imagined it jumping up onto the car's underside and hitching a ride back to my hotel and terrorizing me like in a B horror flick.
I hate spiders badly.

Will do. We get a lot of other nuisance bugs like japanese beetles (they look like lady bugs but bite pretty hard) too that it'll probably help with.
I'm glad I don't live in Texas.

I lived off a bayou in Texas for a year. OG, everything crawled out of that bayou and they were HUGE versions of anything normal sized.

I agree, they are very tasty too. Slow cook over the grill and spice with pepper and Cajun spice. Ummmm good....
Or, roll in spices and flour, deep fry and you have spider poppers.

Ick. Okay, f5 = complete freak. You're already special enough with all your HUMMER knowledge. You don't need to set yourself apart by pretending you're on Survivor.

Okay, I'm having a really bad spider week. His (above) cousin came to get me today. Anyone care to tell me what this, also large, spider was?

Re: The spider that ...
Looks a lot like the "Black and Yellow Argiopes" aka "St. Andrews Cross" spider: http://www.spiderzrule.com/stand.htm
Apparently pretty harmless. But still scary to me.

Re: The spider that ...
WE call them garden spiders. Then I kill them.
I HATE spiders. Long story as to why, but maybe one day I'll post it up.
