My brother had a pet snake that got loose, a neighbor woman killed it in her yard, my brother told her to drop dead, that night she did! I bet my brother never said that again.

This woman I work with is so afraid of snakes she is irrational. She has her son kill any she finds in her yard while mowing the grass. And here's the funniest and most irrational part. If she's driving her car on the road and spots a snake also on the road, she stops and waits for it to move along. Why you say? Wouldn't she just run over it to kill it? No, not a chance. She's afraid if she runs over it, the tire will throw the snake up under the car and it will crawl inside. Yes, I'm serious. At least she doesn't kill the ones on the road. I've tried to talk some sense into her but it ain't happening. Gale ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
