Marriage is the #1 cause of divorce.

Why are divorces so expensive?   They're worth it!

I could go on all day, if I had the time.

I had the choice of getting married or buying a Porsche.  I chose the more economical one.

Great outlook....

For the information of all hands: Divorces Suck.

That is all

Never doing that again. Till death do us part is preferable to me.

Just saw this, but, can anyone from the area confirm?


Text for photo:
This is a 15 foot Western Diamondback rattlesnake - the largest ever caught on record.

This snake was found Near the St. Augustine outlet, in a new KB homes subdivision just south of Mesa Az.

A little research revealed the following:

One bite from a snake of this size would contain enough venom to kill over 40 full grown men.

The head of this snake alone is larger than the hand of a normal sized man.

A bite from those fangs would be comparable to being stabbed by two curved, 1/4 inch diameter screwdrivers.

The knife being used to draw out the fangs for the bottom picture has a blade around 6 inch long.[no other photo avail]

This snake is estimated to have weighed over 170 pounds.

Notice the girth of this snake as compared to the cop's leg in the first picture.

A snake of this size could easily swallow a 2 year-old child and dogs, pigs, etc.

A snake this size has an approximately 5 1/2 foot accurate striking distance.
(The distance for an average size rattlesnake is about 2 feet.)

This snake has probably been alive since George Bush Sr. was President.

Now just ask yourself these questions:

What has this snake been feeding on and where are its offspring?

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Good thoughts sent your way for Enzo Carlos.

My filling replacement made my right eye numb. I laid down for a couple of hours. It feels much better now. My face hurts where the shots went in. Raining and cold out too. I have to walk up to a bus to go get the jeep.

Agreed!  Whether it's an inch long or 7 feet.  No thank you!   Huh?

Most toads won't really hurt the dog...

at least toads up here in the great white north. I had a pup that chewed on one and got all foamy like you describe,

Your hot climate toads might be different.

Good luck.

St Augustine is on my list of places I would move to! Only about 40 minutes south of where I grew up.
