It took me about five minutes and many deletions before I pinged folks to this thread.

"They support a charity for mentally challenged adults" How thoughtful that Texans have created a charity for democrats.

Years ago my younger brother went to the rattle snake roundup. He said it was freaky (and smelly) being around all those rattlers. He tried some fried rattle snake and said the only piece he ate just kept getting bigger the more he chewed.

I have the same experience with fried alligator. Even a small piece seems to expand with chewing. Weird, ain't it?

Kind of like Calamari - rubber-like.....lol

I have tried alligator once - it was chewy and expandable.
No freakin' way will I ever try Calamari - ick!
BTW - Xena, I love the new tag line.

I handled a case a once, a man had multiple copperhead bites to the hand. Guy was a mess.
When I called to follow up on his progress the rest of the story was:
Drunken man and buddy visiting, apparently a nest of young copperheads were weathering out a cold spell under the porch and got into the kitchen.
The drunk ineffectively had tried to stomp them and then pick them up and throw them out the door.
The only thing worse than a venomous snake is a ticked off venomous snake.

Yep. Don't mess with a copperhead. I remember when I was about 14 or so, we went to visit my cousin out in the boonies here in N. Central Texas.
It was early spring and she had some blackberries we were picking. I was squatted down picking them and all of a sudden I see something moving just below my hands where I was picking. I jumped up and told my aunts (who were also there picking berries) I thought it was a snake. They, being old country girls and all, went and got a hoe and a shovel and started beating the berry bushes. He came out and they whacked his head and killed him quick.
He was about 4 feet long or so. He had been less than a foot from my hand, too. Yikes.
