Broken images are broken.

OH WAIT OH WAIT no now they are not! WOW what a cool snake! Is it local to Australia?

Which one?

Actually they both are. It's illegal to own any snakes that AREN'T australian natives in Australia. Likewise for insects.

Oh ok. Now it's obvious. they are not the same snake! Now you probably think I am one of those kind of people who think all Aussie snakes look alike!

That said, at this point I especially like the slender headed one peeping cautiously out of the box. Giovanni I presume?

But both are frikkin cool. I think I know how the he snake got his head there, but I don't think I can put it into words concisely enough for here.

*blink*

I'm not sure why anyone would think aussie snakes looked more alike than snakes in general, but okay? Maybe if you're more accustom to identifying other kinds--but I know aussie breeds are very predominate in American pets stores.

Giovanni, the olive python, is the top picture. Ishida, the jungle python, is the bottom picture. Giovanni will get to six meters, she's about two feet now. She won't be so slender then...

I don't *really* think all snakes-down-under look alike!!! Really I am NOT one of THOSE KIND OF PEOPLE!!!!

I just didn't look at the pictures long enough to perceive more than OH COOL A SNAKE!

One time I went to Grenada and found this one hanging out over my bed:

The general rule is if they can climb, they aren't venomous.

Elapids have hipped spines. Or don't have hipped spines. You know what I mean.

I have another girl, Seraphim. She's my oldest, my biggest and my sweetest.

They say in Grenada there are no poisonous beasts. That would include snakes. I chose to believe this when I got up and started taking lots of pictures. Snake didn't like that. Didn't like my flash I guess. So he(?) left. Next morning there was a nice big snake skin in the rafters. I still have it somewhere.

Right now I'm trying to picture a hipped spine. And failing.

How big is big? I WANT PICTURES! Of you holding Seraphim. Is she as sweet as you? ;)

I have two pick up lines:

"I'm going to rape you with a rake."

And:

"I'll give you $20 to strip.'

They don't work well on women.

I, personally, am incapable of being attracted to someone over the internet--so I wouldn't bother using a pick up line there. :P

So, you WOULD strip for money at a private party? Most of the private parties I go to I would get in trouble for encouraging that kind of behaviour.

Re: oh that. ludicrous October 4 2007, 09:39:11 UTC
well. it depends how much you paid me. $20 probably wouldn't cut it, really. I mean, cmon. $20 US dollars? That what, 3 Euro?

Depends on the party too. Most of the private parties I have been to they wouldn't appreciate it, and the ones where no one would mind, money probably wouldn't be involved anyway.

Not that there are usually parties of any sort in the hinterland where I live now. Except for right about now in the harvest season, when travellers from all around converge. These parties are a lot more about alcohol than nudity. :)
