I have a gemini symbol above my right ankle and a rainbow star on my left shoulder blade. I'm not sure where to get a new one which is part of the problem.

> What's a snipe?
Come out in the woods sometime at night and we'll show you...

OK, that's the traditional answer.

Snipe hunting is a prank where you invite young wanna-be hunters to go "hunt for snipes" with you. Snipes can only be found at twilight and night. You take the younglings out in the woods and get them disoriented, then you or an accomplice tosses pebbles into the underbrush and you holler, "OO! A SNIPE! NOW'S YOUR CHANCE!" Repeat until the wanna-bes are completely exhausted and miserable and can't figure out why they haven't bagged any snipes yet. Then laugh at them.

Sounds like it originated in West Virginia...

I think it was originally a Boy Scout prank, actually, but I MIGHT be wrong about that one. West Virginia also sounds like a likely point of origin.
