Jeanie: Close Encounter w/Hobo Spider

JeanieS: The scanner report always entertains. This didn’t make the scanner report, but yesterday at 5:15 pm, Mechanic Man was busy sorting through garage sale tool box finds, when he spied a very large spider (e.g., hobo spider? our 6th or 7th in a row) and aimed the first thing that came to his hand - lighter fluid. The spider ran off and hid and then when he thought Mechanic Man was preoccupied, made a beeline directly at him, limping and jiggling (probably doped up on lighter fluid) whereupon MM smashed him on the spot. It appears he was a drunk, hit and run. end of scanner report from this household.

Question: Have you had a close encounter w/a hobo spider?
