- What kind of spider? The only one in North America that would put you in the ER would be a Black Widow or a Recluse. A Wolf Spider would be sore as heck but no poison unless you had an allergic reaction. A recluse would rot the skin but you shouldn't notice it until after 24 - 48 hours. It might be painful and swell but most people ignore it until the skin breaks. The only other spider that would cause this is the hobo spider but they are found in the Northwest. Hope you have a speedy recovery. I would definitly talk to a lawyer. You shouldn't have gotten bitten on a plane! New Movie.. "Spiders on a Plane!" Mike Tired of Spam?? Here's your solution..

I am writing this request from my cell phone, so I am keeping this short. I was bit by a spider on my flight from St. Louis to Albuquerque. My first week here has included a twelve hour ER hell and four days of bed rest. I am hopefully going to be well enough by tonight for my birthday festivities. Would someone please log my issue on Groundhog Does Irish Jig Birthday Race and also state that I will post the winners as soon as I am able. Thank you, Stephen aka Faery_G ____________________________________________________________________________________ TV dinner still cooling? Check out "Tonight's Picks" on Yahoo!
