Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I remember the director of my Paramedic school saying "Pit vipers are cardiac toxic." When we discussed treating the bites of the hemotoxin. I also remember a Discovery Channel special showing how potent pit viper venom was. One drop of Timber rattler venom was dropped into a petri dish of bovine blood. A few swirls in the dish, over ten seconds, and the once liquid blood became a solid.

That was pretty dumb. Don't really know what else to say about that.

Those snakes are evil, I have plenty where I live. They are territorial and will not back down. Take out everyone I see. Never thought someone would attempt to kiss one.

I think it's interesting in that the snake's fangs "walk" the would be victim further into the mouth.

And by interesting, I mean terribly frightening.

Complete stupidity!!!

I remember when I was about 20 years old I was fishing from the bank in some high grass. I took a step and felt something trying to move under my feet. I jumped back and there was probably a 3' Cottonmouth under the matted grass I was standing on. I think the only reason I didn't get bit that day was because I was probably standing on his head. I haven't been back to that spot since then.

I am not sure he is even at stupid level, if it had bit to the jugular he would not have survived.


hold on Newt, we got a runaway

He won't escape the process of natural selection for long.

See, and this is where culture ruins natural selection. We stopped the process of natural selection from doing its job and so now he will have a chance to reproduce and pass on his genes to the next generation.

Thank you, I now fear snakes more than I used to, and I was pretty freaking scared of them.

I guess it takes all kinds. He doesn't look nearly as cool in the hospital picture as he thinks he looks in the first picture where he is flashing his "gangsta" signs.
