MR

This is the first time my wife has ever held a snake. Here she is with our new baby Eastern King Snake.

Until the interview comes out, we have to find SOMETHING fun to talk about



Any other cool pets out there?

OMG I can't believe she did that. I have a severe phobia about snakes. I'm terrified of them. Where I live we have copperheads, rattlesnakes and moccasins. Most of my most hideous nightmares involve snakes.

Ur wife is absolutely beautiful. She's also really cool. I'd be too scared to hold a snake.

What a brave woman! I would not be able to hold one - even that small!! Yikes!

Hey JR...

I'm not one for baby pictures either. Actually, I've always been VERY pissed off when my friends send me their dopey kids' pictures in Christmas cards, as if I want to look at their kids' mugs, throughout my holiday season I honestly only really posted the picture because I'm a wiseass Nonetheless, thanks for the kind words about my "dopey" kid and my wife

Hey John, I am one for baby pics and yours is beautiful.

John when I look at little ones like this
it makes me want to go back and try for
the girl I don't have.
Hubby is fixed however, I love em a year and under.
They need you always, smile at everything you
do and don't ask for 300 dollar toys.


knox I've told ya before how beautiful
I think the Mrs is but I think she gets
extra points for holding a snake.
I've held a Cobra before, it was cool.
I happen to like long things that slink
about between my fingers.

I just want to know if your hamster knows his name I couldn't have a hamster in my house...My cat considers hamster to be a delicacy


John from Boston

Thanks for the kind words - I got the better end of the marriage deal .

Here is HER pet:




And another one of our 5 snakes with my younger daughter:

OK, not coming to this thread any more. Damn I hate snakes. Beautiful wife and kids though.

Kind of, John, but I think it is more the tone we use when we call his name.

My one female cat has tried to get at him if he accidentally gets out of his excercise ball........ but once she sees me coming to look for Wigglenose......... she is gone..........

John, that is one beautiful baby...blonde hair and all,,must look like his mother, heh! ..G

Hey Knox,

Where did she find the snake - in your yard? We get red racers in our yard every spring. They're great for getting rid of bugs. Unfortunately, our four cats take pleasure in eradicating them from our yard.

fred,, no offense to knox, but good for ur cats,, this is what we have in texas,, so our opinions of snakes is a tad negative...hate them... im sure knox has some nice pets,, but they look like the means ones. well , they are snakes anyway... ugh....snakes and red ants!!

Here in FL we get the pleasure of alligators coming to visit! Came home 1 day & went to pull into the driveway, & there sits a 3-foot long alligator in the middle of our driveway. Nice, lol.

Actually, I buy all my snakes. Here in TN it is illegal to collect wild animals for pets.

Knox, good for your wife (who looks uncannily like my neighbor across the street). We had a friend that had snakes so I have held a few before, lost my fear of them long ago......came to realize they aren't even slimy like they look. Spiders on the other hand....totally petrified. Our friend had a trantula and I couldn't even be in the same room. Stupid I know......I can hold a snake but can't even hold a daddy-long-leg spider.

John, great pic of your wife and son.

Larry, my wife and I were jogging down a bike path not too far behind our home. There is a lot of wildlife there and I heard this sound like heavy paper rattling against itself (rattlers do NOT sound like they do on TV or in the movies - much more papery) and I looked just off the path to my right and saw this rattlesnake that was doing two things at once - backing up away from me while looking at me with his/her head hanging over its tail from where it had just come from. I have never jumped so high or so far in my life! Its was thicker than my wrist and was well over 3 feet long. Totally took us by surprise. I do not need that experience again, thank you very much.

Red ants....oh yeah.....

I have had the distinct previlige of being 'welcomed' by a red ant in Dallas the last time I was there 2 summers ago....

Imagine, I have NEVER been bitten by an ant prior to that, fuck..in where I live you can't find fuckin ants unless you spilled sugar or some shit....I can't even remember when was the last time I saw one..!! And I fly 16 hours to Denton to get bitten by one....!

Damn...

Texas is a jungle, Lar....

Hey Knox, has your old lady ever held a California White Python? There is only one left to my knowledge. If I show her, I will have to travel with it. It is really close to me and likes to hangout in my pants. The fucker is always peaking out the bottom of my pant leg.

John, I love the B&W pic. You are a lucky man - looks like you have a great looking family to come home to every afternoon!

Wow... Sounds like an intriguing animal. We may have to have you visit TN to take a look

You are classic! Thanks for the laugh! I actually started reading your post and thought to myself "What the fuck is a California White Python"? Funny shit!

p.s. Moose should be in here any minute to tell you to fuck off

My wife works for a vet who works with exotics. I have pics of her with monkeys, snakes, parrots, all kinds of crazy shit. A monkey kissed her last week (no, not me, a real one!).
