So, you're one of those lily livered, ivory tower, stay at home in the lab types, huh? Afraid of a little field work? There's plenty of snakes in California, especially of the leftist bent. Don't want to sweat? Don't want to get dirty? What's a little cobra venom compared to the discovery of a life time?

No pain, no gain.

C'mon, C-man. Can't you hear the australopithecines calling? C'mon, now admit you are just a little intrigued. And to top it off you'll get the girl in the end (remember Indiana Jones?). Of course, in Ethiopia her measurements are likely to be 16-16-16, but in the dark....

....you'll probably mistake her for a broomstick, with measurements like that. ;)

It's actually not that bad. I spend a lot of time in the field--a lot of it in the real wilderness--and have even developed a very good recipe for rattlesnake. The problem with them is, unless you get a really big, fat one, they are way too bony to bother with.

But they make a nice hatband on the Stetson.

Dirty? You want dirt? Shower with an archaeologist!
