Bull Snake

Lone Tree, Colorado, May 18, 4:20 p.m.

Unfortunately my photo cuts off head and tail. It was moving or essed up while I tried to get a decent photograph. Rough guess, 3 to 4 feet long.

    For my dollar, it’s better without the head and tail in the frame.

    Dammit, Renner! Warn us next time they’ll be a snake as we scroll down.

    I don’t like snakes on clusterflock. I had to say it.

    Snake related anecdote:

    I raked leaves last weekend and there was a spot where I uncovered a small garden snake. His home was under the moist leaves and I couldn’t bear leaving it exposed, so I put the leaves back in that area. I figured that I also racked up a couple of points in the “snake karma” department. Somehow this adds up helps me avoid any snake confrontations in the future.

    Snakes, I must confess, make my skin crawl. I don’t hate them, and I can even appreciate their beauty — at a distance — but I find their locomotion deeply and profoundly disturbing. Now lizards I like. Lizards have legs! Lizards are my friends.

    Amy, please don’t you ever “crawl on your belly like a reptile” as the climax to some hoochie-coochie dance.

    well, i might crawl on my belly, but it’s never like a reptile.

    Because you have appendages that snakes lack.

    True, Sheila.

    Reminds me of what a friend said to her promiscuous gay sister: “Janet, you’d fuck a snake if it had a pussy!”

    Do girl snakes have pussies? What do they have?

    I’m pretty sure girl snakes have one-stop-shop cloacae. In case Janet wants to know.
