Creepy spider!

Just had to post this. This evening my wife and I went out, and upon coming home, we found a giant black spider on our deck. My wife freaking out, I grabbed a small Tupperware container to trap it, so I could get a better (safer) look.

After getting it in there, I had a drop of water from the container drip down my finger, I freaked out, and dropped it.

When I picked it up, I noticed hundreds of new baby spiders, crawling all over the inside of the container, and the large spider was dead (edit: Dying, as they're eating it).

I tried getting some pictures, but can't get any that really show much of anything. I need a new camera.

Pretty sure it's just a giant wolf spider, so no threat, but it's still creepy.

sweet!

When my son was born and I saw his beautiful face, I was so happy that it wasn't made with Bioware's character creator.

If its a wolf spider, the babbies were clinging to momma's back most likely.

Wolf spiders are hairy, big, and nasty looking. Careful letting it out, because they jump.

Also, did I mention VYPER DRIVE!!!?

If it looked like this:
it was a wolf spider with babies.

I almost just posted that as a link, but I figure, if you click on a thread entitled "Creepy Spider" you should be expecting pictures.

Of course my work's websense is BLOCKING the nice(?) cat/duckling photo, but not the scary spider.

**Edit**
Now that I'm home and can see this adorable photo, it makes me think the ducklings are doing an SNL Night at the Roxbury sketch with the poor kitty unaware of what's going on.

I wanted to see pics from the OP, not random pics from a "giant spider close up 1280x800 wallpaper" google search.

Ye gods, what is wrong with you people and your giant nasty freaky spider pictures?!

Joe, thank you for the ducklings and kitten. Much better.

I always knew there'd be an occasion when I could dig this one back out!

I took this in a hallway in our house, just inside the door from the garage:
