That snake tries to attack me every chance she gets.

Might I recommend raccoon whispering? It is far safer, Steve.

The only thing keeping my from keeping snakes is thinking of feeding them...
Maybe I should really go for beekeeping.

I use pre-frozen rodents. I just thaw them in warm water (in plastic bags) and dangle them with long forceps. (Warning! Do not thaw rodents in microwave) :D

A frozen rat is still a rat I would need to feed, thank you very much.
Nothing against rats, make great pets.

Let me put it this way. It's a mistake I only made once in 43 years. I can assure you I will never make that mistake again....

I made a curry pie detonate/explode inside an industrial microwave about 35 years ago. The viewing window light disappeared when the pie went bang.

I think I spotted Hal9000 over on the ebay boards, It seems ebay has changed the Summary Page and divided the whole thing up into multiple menus that are harder to watch than just 1 page and people aren't happy there.

I am not certain, but I think my wildlife webcam caught a beaver last night. It looks sort of like a raccoon, but it seems to have a flat tail. I didn't know there were any beavers within a mile of here. Here is the clip.
