I don't mean to turn this blog into a dialog about reptiles, but I saw this picture on Yahoo this evening and it reminded me of the snake I saw in my garage in Orlando several years ago.
Peter was working out of town, and I was letting Maguire out for the evening. I pushed the button for the garage door to open, and son of a gun, right in the empty spot was this sucker.
Now, I'm familiar with the saying "Red & black, you're OK Jack. Red & yellow, you're a dead fellow". But I wasn't about to walk up to the snake and say to myself.... hmm, let's see how these stripes look.
Nope, not me. I shoved Maguire back into the house and reached for a push broom to shoo this friggin' snake away.
Don't you know the snake got an attitude and started to raise its head to me. Ohmygosh. I was terrified. So I shoved that push broom with all my might to get that snake out of the garage.
