Our Neighbor

So I have been saying that there are some big bugs here in the South.  Well, the other night, we met one of our little neighbors.  Meet Charlotte, who spends her evening spinning giant webs. 

Seriously, doesn't this thing look awful? Wonder if it's poisonous...

I think at first glance its an Orb Weaver. Yuck. I hate spiders. I don't think it's poisonous. At least Orb Weavers aren't dangerous. They do have venom.

That being said, who cares? I wouldn't get within 10 feet of that thing. Uber-gross. Spiders reduce my manhood by 99%.
