re: #156 Occasional Reader
My mom has the strongest phobia about snakes that I know anyone to have about anything.
I wasnt afraid of snakes until this happened. After I dropped the snake it slithered across the yard and started climbing a large maple tree next to the house. I had no idea snakes climbed trees. One of the police officers told me he once found 10+ black snakes in an attic. I had nightmares for weeks. I put the house up for sale. It sold in two weeks an I was out of there. Not kidding.
