A little grass snake isn't going to yield much. A 9' rattler, on the other hand, if you can squeeze it hard enough without getting bit, will give you more. Julia
I'm surprised no one tried to make something out of "snakes" = "oil company executives" . . .
(And I've heard of rattlers that size who survived to crawl away after being run over, backed over, then run over again . . . )
who declined to take part in what she perceived was the torturing of the rattlesnakes from Taylor during the premiere weekend of "Snakes on a Plane" at the Alamo Drafthouse (this was at the Village location), and did *not* reach out to touch the one being brought up the aisle on her side (and I think that one was only about 5' long)
The Alamo Drafthouse is a church? . . . ronn! :) _______________________________________________ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
