I found a dead black widow spider in my garage today, and damn, if she isn't a big sucker; I knew black widows got big, but I wasn't sure they ever got this big.
Anyways, I collected her corpse and sealed it up in a jar.
As for why this is good news, I've always wanted to see an unambiguously female black widow up close ever since I was in the First Grade; now I finally have (even if it is dead).
