I've got a Spyder out back that Nader would respect.

I live in the North East. I hate spiders, and there's a big dead on on my deck. It's so big, I think I may have to bury it.

Bigger spiders = global warming = Bush's fault. This game is easy!

Oh man, I can personally attest to Midwest cool summers = giant spiders. My neighbor brought one over to me last week and I almost died. I've NEVER seen an arachnid that big in Wisconsin.
WHY he brought it over to show me is beyond my comprehension, since I'm known to utter unintelligible groans and shrieks at normal sized spiders.
The Toads are huge this year too, although not as plentiful as years past. I think they're feeding on the giant-spider buffet and growing large right along with them.

I'm afraid to ask you what eats the toads?

They're harmless if you can get used to them.

Snakes! but it would take a really big one to eat the 5 inch toad that has taken up residence in my garage... The cats won't go near it...

If you are a girl who shrieks over spiders and other crawly things...you don't have to wonder why He brought it over to you....the same reason cats and dogs prefer "squeeeeky" toys
hehehehehehe
And yes we do have some really big...and plentiful numbers of those critters this year...Ive killed some big ones lately....
They also get into your bed and bite....you will itch like crazy in the am...my wife's bites get infected (the one's the spiders give her...not the one's she gives me.... you twits)

I have a friend who was bitten by a brown recluse, and almost lost his leg due to gangrene. However, he went to to hospital just in time (he didn't even know he was bitten by one until the area started to putrify).

bump for coolest summer since I've lived in KC
To: laker_dad
I've had a pack of coyotes living nearby for over 5 years.. They do very well..I see them occasionally...mainly ive on deer..we're overrun, becuase there is no hunting..so between roadkill and normal disease/ageing..there's always a meal around..and of course, we no longer have any stray cats in the neighborhood..

We have a bumper crop of toads here at Lake of the Ozarks. This place is always buggy and muggy...
