I've seen one on Ft Hood while tracking a dead hog and seen one in the middle of a ranch road out in west Texas. I first read this as, "I've seen one in the woods tracking a dead hog." HUGE spider...

They always get a pass from me, cool friendly spiders once an understanding is reached that you are not out to hurt one.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Grosseous Maximus is the scientific name I give them. I never kill one, but have accidently run over a few. I tried to let one crawl up my arm once......but then I lost my nerve and flung it who knows where, lol.
Mmmm Hmmm

Saw a couple this past weekend at the wifes family property. Had one crawl onto my hand while sitting up against an oak tree, scared the crap out of me and I moved spots. Snakes I like, spiders are okay at best..at a distance.

I was sitting next to my truck in Afghanistan eating an MRE at a small outpost after a long mission and had a damn camel spider crawl onto my leg, scared the sheet out of me. Ive always hated spiders but id prob let one of these tarantulas live if I seen it.

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.
