I have to say I have a fear of spiders,Not a Phobia,like our youngest daughter(almost 30),
But still, a definate,keep away from me theory.

IE,I dont want to kill you,but if you come anywhere near me,I will.

Last night,while reading the posts from "Ice In Space",a Huntsman Spider appeared between the window frame and the wall,to my left.

I took off my shoe,but couldn't get a clear hit,so I thought just put the shoe under his back legs,and he will move up a little higher,where I can send him to the Promised land.

WRONG

This thing,Immediately Jumped diagonaly,over the Printer,and Straight at me,almost DIRE.

I should have had a heart attack,on the spot,
Instead, I got in touch with my FEMININE side,and let out a little Shriek.

My wife Kathy,said,I think it is on your Flanno, John,I had if off Fairly quick,
Ok,I tore it off.

Turns out,the thing had landed,on my Computer table,and Due to my panic,I still haven't seen where i went

Needless to say,I was,and still am.
A little Toey.

Seem's my heart is still ok.

I checked these Spiders out on the net,and it appears,quite common for then to Jump at you,When threatened.

This is a TRUE story,Both of our 2 daughters,and 5 Grandchildren,think it is Hilarious.

I Dont.

Regards to all.
