I couldn't stand being a lake that had water moccasins; I couldn't just enjoy the ride.
I really don't see how people live where there are venomous snakes.
on the other hand Venice's canals have no snakes, but sewage does go straight into them, so that dago is water sking in shit water. Coltrane, wanna bet he doesn't take a fake fall?

Due to a copperhead incident when I was ten, I have horrible snake phobia. Yet, somehow I managed to make peace with the fact that I live in snake country. I just loudly announce my presence (much to the amusement of anyone human (and possibly canine) around me) whenever I go into what I consider snake territory (i.e. the outdoors in the country).
