    I have seen the King Cobra by my air conditioner for 3 straight weeks while cutting the lawn. Today, as I was doing my deed, I peeked cautiously around the corner where he normally resides, and he wasn't there. So I went about my business, only to turn and see the Anaconda attacking me from behind! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I said! That's when I swung the lawnmower around like Jason chopping somebody's head off in Friday the 13th, but the thing was like the Flash, and it sped away and into his hole!

    By the way...did I mention that the hole he goes into just happens to be the pipe that leads down to my sump pump? If I ever see that bastard in the house...your friend Dipper will be DOA!

    Last summer when I saw them the first time, I actually looked into this. Mongoose (or is it Mongeese?) are illegal in the United States. Can you believe that?

    Most snakes won't attack the first person in a line, so get some of you less-liked family to come over and follow you around until you "find" the snake, then follow IS's instructions.

    Ah, rats...

    I'm shocked no one came up with a "Sick and tired of these m-f-ing snakes in my m-f-ing YARD!" line.

    When I told my wife about it the first time, she said I was over reacting. When I saw it the second time, I ran and got her, we grabbed two shovels, and took back off for the AC unit. She said, "You can't kill it, its illegal!" I said "*%&K that!" When she saw the snake, she changed her tune and screamed, kill it! The problem is, the thing stays real close to the house and AC pipes and wires. If I chop it with a shovel, ax, machette, (insert other weapon of choice here) I am probably gonna miss it, chop a wire, get bit, and be out $1000 fixing my AC!

    Anyway, my father-in-law is coming over tonight for steamed crabs. I asked him to bring his shotgun!

    That's the kicker man. I live in the middle of Perry Hall, in a frickin neighborhood. Its not a farm, its not a field, its not cave, but it IS a GD snake pit!

    The King Cobra reference may have been a wee bit of an exageration.

    I have made it my personal mission to seek out and destroy this son of a motherless goat. Anybody want to come over this weekend for a good old fashioned snake hunt?

I mean, I would be terrified if confronted face to face with something like a great white shark, and I have been within inches of rattlesnakes, water moccasins, sharks, barracudas, and more, but just categorically fearing a grouping of animals makes no sense to me, I guess


    And as for black racers, they are non-venomous and eat rodents, so whats so scary about that?

    People are afraid of Lemmings?
