I understand that in the South, "Coke" is used for any type of carbonated drink,
including but not limited to Caca-Cola.

Yep. And as has been pointed out using the example of "soda", what one
means in one area may mean something entirely different in another
area or context (unless someone really does want soft drink mixed into
their Scotch and Soda ^_^)

In Canada soda is what you mix with scotch (a delightful idea,
although purists scorn it). Or it means sodium bicarbonate the
traditional remedy for acid stomach. Ginger ale, colas etc. are called
soft drinks.

Jake's eating something, for sure. If he gets much bigger he's going
to be scary. Here's a pic I took last spring when I caught him out
on the top of the cellar sunning himself.

IMO, if he's a snake, he's *already* extremely scary [I'm
snake-phobic].


Maybe you should move to Ireland, no snakes in the wild.


Did you know that St. Patrick did NOT drive the snakes out of Ireland?
They didn't have cars then!!!!!!!
