They say that you should learn something new everyday. Today, I decided to stay home and mow my lawn.
I learned a lot on the subject of rattlesnakes.
1) according to the University of Nebraska department of agricultures web site there are few rattlesnakes in my area , and they generally avoid people.
2) there is at least one such snake who apparently a) didn't visit the web site and read that fact. or b) that at least one such snake didn't hear,understand or care about it, and has little or no regard or people, their property or their LAWNMOWER!
Frankly , I'm going with #2 , or the concept I call for short, "The retarded rattler" .(To avoid hate mail or legal investigations, I submit to you that "mentally challenged rattlesnake" just doesn't cut it!). Not having time to get my shotgun and load it rocksalt, I simply used my lawn mower as an offensive weapon! (Weapon of grass destruction?). I do belive that the "retarded rattler" has learned to "Stay off the geezers lawn!". [:D] Of course with my luck, the little #$%%%$# will come back with reinforcements! [X(]
You know, you *could* have collected said rattler for dinner too. Mmmm....rattler...tastes like chicken...
The lawn mower would have turned it into something between snake chirosi and snake tar tare. I've had rattler , and I really didn't care for it. Besides, only gator tail tastes like chicken (ok, sweet chicken). [:D] Thinking about it, with all the grass involved, it would probably be more like "snake salad". Besides, is "retarded rattler" safe to eat? [X(] Sounds more like "mad snake" waiting to happen ! (yes, I know that he wasn't too pleased, but that's not what I meant).
I would have been more likely to leave him impaled on the lawn as a warning for his kin to "keep off my lawn" , but then I'd have to deal with those PETA folks. [:D]
BTW,just got your turn, I'll get back to you by evening. [:)]
