Claxton Herald
Mister Jack Bibby displays the form that earned him a world record.
His record is holding 10 , 24 inch, western diamondbacks in his mouth.
Mr. Bibby said he is feeling in his water that the record is about to be smashed in the upcoming madness in Claxton.
"Have these m a d m e n ever considered what they do to a true performer like me" he said and wiped away a tear.

Kees is not above playing with snakes. In my wild youth I mostly killed them but since then I have lost most of my primal fear.
I have spent hours with friend's Cobras and Mambas and of course I often have encounters in the bush.
Where have I seen a Bowler like that, I wonder.

Hell, I grew up that rattlers are camp meat when you're out hiking. They make a good lunch. You just skin and clean them, and wind them on a stick to roast over the coals. They're tasty.

Oh my god....I really don't like snakes that can kill me or cause a great deal of pain.

"... she allows they tastes like chicken"
Hi Guyk and Miss Sassie Poodle , Mister Sassy Cat here, what do you think of this nice little catfish. Apparently it weighed in at 140 lbs.
Nice eh, meow.
I taste like chicken, indeed.
I battled a bit with the mouse as I do not have a big enough paw, but Kees showed me how to manage.
And off course the super intelect that cats have made the photoshopping easy.

Finally I found some time to visit your blog. Thank you for posting on my blog about the white deer. That picture is some big ugly barber. Very good and informative blog you have here. I am a sucker for African big game animals. Elephants, lions and tigers (not native to Africa) are my favorites.Keep the good work up.-Othmar Vohringer-

The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?"
The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."
The pharmacists' eyes got big and he exclaimed, "Lord have mercy!I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All kinds of bad things will happen. Absolutely not!You CANNOT have any cyanide!"
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.
The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well now. That's different. You didn't tell me you had a prescription."
I might be a Mister, but I'm still cute
The beauty of the lack of colour
I posted about an albino deer here, but that looked freakish, this is just plain stunning.
And to think we like peacocks for their colour.
Remember to check out I and the Bird #43 at Earth, Wind & Water
Comments:
My Hubbie's Aunt raise peacocks and had an albino peahen. Their normal male peacock was *smitten* by her white beauty...but she never had any interest in him and wouldn't let him woo her or get near her. I wondered what an albino would look like - and this is a FAB picture.

I believe I now prefer the white peacock over the colored....beautiful.

I have a friend in Llano, Tx who has several albino peahens and peacocks on his ranch. The tailfeathers on his seem to be a little more grey and you can make out the "eyeball" pattern in white and grey.

WHITE Whitetail Deer
Pictures from The Trouble With Angels
One of the commenters there speculated that albino's might be blind.
White lions are not, allthough I don't know whether the White Lions are albinos or not.
Uppdate: White Lions are not albinos.

MARRIED FOR A NIGHT
Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly...he in the upper berth and she in the lower.
At 1:00 AM, the man leaned over and gently woke the woman saying, "Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket? I'm awfully cold."
"I have a better idea," she replied. "Just for tonight, let's pretend that we're married."
"Wow! That's a great idea!" he exclaimed.
"Good," she replied. "Get your own damned blanket!"
After a moment of silence, he farted.

Last photo Valentine - too late
Posted a day late on purpose.
I've been trying to think of something to show in this "heart" presentation for a while now.
The moral of the story is to show love everyday and not only on VD. It might be too late then.

Idiocy
Wild animal
RobC points out in the comments in my Lucky Sods post that killing comes from two sides.
This woman "hid in the park late Sunday until it closed and managed to find the keys to the cheetah cage"
She "was found dead in the cage"
From Irons in the Fire in Darwin's concept in action we have:
Repeat after me, children: "Cheetahs are wild animals, even if they are in a zoo, and they will act as such. And people who think they are pets are too stupid to be out without a keeper."
and Fox News has the whole story.
Go and look at my post Meet Lefty as well
The comments on a post on the same topic by Tim Bliar is rather funny

[ ... {NOT} lots of comment code here, BLOGGER IS EFFING YOU, Leave your comment RIGHT HERE... ] 0 commentsThermodynamics for the Soul
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gascools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different Religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and deathrates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the vo lume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."
