Cary -
You are correct. I have very strong opinions on the subject and I expect you do as well.

I'm just a little curious as to why you shot that snake. He seemed to be out on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere doing no harm. THANK YOU, MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY! (SHOUTING INTENDED) Same reason the man climbed the mountain. |

To ask the meaning of life?  I'll try to keep this short... I was on the deer lease once and saw 2 rattlers in the road... 3 of the 8 hunters are snakeaphobic... they hate 'em. The guy with me told the story how crazy I was to get out and move the snakes off the road so he wouldn't run over 'em. I told the story how crazy HE was shooting at the snake - while it was in my hand! Now seriously... who's the crazy one!?  |

To ask the meaning of life? Because it's there. |

People's reaction to snakes can be extreme.... As teenagers in the 60s we would fill a bicycle inner tube with sand and pull it across the road at night on a dark road.... After I saw what people did the first night I didn't go back... The other guys did and had lots of really good tales to tell...  |

We did something kiiind of like that one night when I was about 8 back in El Paso. Last time I ever did ANYthing like that. One mad middle aged fellow screamed to a stop and came running out into the desert with a flashlight and pistol. I figured right then and there that wasn't the night time game for me!  |
