Are black widows deadly?  (Cant get the link up to read it).  I quite like spiders.  My friend breeds tarantulas, which surprisingly are very tame, gentle and fragile.

I don't mind them and am now brave enough to lift them out of the bath. I wouldn't kill one if I could avoid it. Makes it rain, for one thing.
