4/8/2004: Big-ass spiders

I have seen some Bird-Eating Spiders before at a spider exhibit. They were pretty cool. I took a Wolf spider to show and tell when I was in kindergarten. For those that don't know a Wolf spider looks kinda like a tarantula (sometimes with less hair), but is often times a little smaller. My mom used to "milk" venomous spiders for her job. They would place the spider on its back, make it go to sleep and then extract its venom. They then used the venom for research on a specific decease which I cant remember right now. So as a child I was around spiders a lot.
