            You said it could kill birds.  That means it could jump pretty far. I'm glad it didn't jump on your roommate. But, I dont think large spiders have deadly venom, just a bad bite.

               Depending on the spider, though, its venom might have liquefied flesh. That would have been bad beyond words.

                  liquefied flesh?  you mean like acid or something?  damn, that sounds terrible.

                     Sort of. Tarantula-type spiders don't have teeth or any way of tearing up their prey; so their venom dissolves it and they can drink it.
                     
                     That is pretty terrible.

    It's just that most spiders never have the opportunity to make a good impression on people...so most people never have the opportunity to see them dance.
