Re: The reason we have snake hooks....

Oh well, now that I've told my extremely personal story, the ones who sent me the drinks did not even comment! However, this thread will be complete when Hartsock makes his contribution. His use for a snake hook is the craziest of them all.

Actually, I think your husband may tell a different story, that is, if he can type with his mechanical hand.

I think a snake hook would of made dealing with this cute little guy a lot easier than just using a four foot long staff.

So after all this snake hook talk, I had a dream last night that I caught a venomous snake with my bare hands in someone's back yard. I didn't know it was venomous until afterward. I asked the homeowner, "Was it poisonous?" Yeah, I said that.

Re: The reason we have snake hooks....

So I really thought that feeding in the same cage on newspaper would eliminate the need for a hook. Obviously, I was wrong!

My original post is a really good reason for the 2-person rule. If that hook hadn't been handy, it could have been a mess, especially if my cat happened to be walking by. And Veronica isn't even quite 6'.

Hartsock where are you? I want to see if your story beats Sherri's. You will have to come real good with it.

Sherri I am thinking of sending you a drink but who knows what you may come up with after three?

Actually, hartsock's is more like a picture of his favorite activity that involves a snake hook.

And BTW, I will give a million vbux to whoever has a better snake hook story than the snakehook-to-the-crotch story.

Not off the top of my head. But that's what the public profile is for. LOL I can just look.
