Holy crap!!! I've never seen anything like that, short of a Tarantula, and that isn't a Tarantula!! :Q

Man, I'd have to break out the 30-06 with 10x scope and pick that ah heck off from about 100 yards out...I'd be afraid it might eat me if I missed. :Q

What did you do with it? It could eat a small child....

LOL what would you do to your house if you saw that? I don't think i could sleep in it before some sort of terminator visited it... and even then, that would be enough to freak me out for awhile.

LOL not my pic. Found it on my Everquest board, they were talking about it. I really hope we don't have anything like that up here in Canada.

I'd have slammed the clock into the wall. Sure I'd destroy the clock, but it would take care of that bloody spider.

I would dedicate a piece of tupperware to catching that spider.. I would probby wear some rubber dishwashing gloves to punch it dead if it moved to fast for the tupperware, though.

That would be something cool to send in for research... or pull the lid off the tupperware and put it upside-down on a fire ant hill that I disturbed. I did that to wasps once.. the ants always win. Catching the wasps was hard, though.. you gotta use a water hose. Once they're wet, they fall to the ground.. and you gotta find them in the 5 seconds it takes for them to dry off enough to start flying again.

Absolutely not. Think of all the other bugs that thing eats every day! I would shoot it with my camera though;) I think I could get a few decent shots out of it. It looks like an interesting subject.

After some google research I have come to the conclusion that that thing is either worth a sh!tload of money (world record) or it's the most realistic looking fake spider ever.

Lirion, you are the only human being in the world that could take a picture of that THING and make it look beautiful. :)

You haven't posted any of your superior work lately, did I miss it? :)

Note: Lirion has mad skillz with a camera...he could take a picture of a piece of black construction paper and it would look like the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. :)
