Oh my, what a gorgeous creature!! Sorry, I *LOVE* snakes, they are so
silky (they are *NOT* slimy, I love petting them) and graceful - attributes
they share with cats.

I love them too! I especially like the way they feel when they are
moving.

Our three pet cornsnakes would agree with you and Cat - "we're
really adorable creatures, have cute little faces, smooth soft skin, a
lot of curiosity, can get into mischief, we're actually quite
intelligent (except when Lita gets in a dumb-and-dumber mode), and
we're VERY people-friendly. Gotta love us!!"

I'm not phobic about snakes - I quite like them, and we don't have very
poisonous ones here in Finland - but I am arachnophobic. Can't even look
at a picture of a... one of those... with the eight legs. shudder I
sat with my eyes shut in the movie theatre for the last part of LOTR
(thanks again to Yowie for telling me when to shut them and when it was
safe to open them).

Now that's weird. I am terrified of snakes. I have an unfounded, neurotic fear
that they are going to chase me.
But I like sp--- sorry, those eight-legged critters. I have a beautiful one on
my porch overhang. Gorgeous yellow and black color. It's an argiope, I've
watched her all summer lure flies and such in her web, then ZING! She wraps
them up in thread lightning fast. Grandaddies I don't mind either, or those
jumpy ones that are always in the flower bed. I can ID a black widow or a
fiddleback, they're the only ones I squash.

Sherry

I like 'em, too. They are interesting, and can be beautiful. One
lives in my dahlias, and she keeps the bad bugs away.

I was the go-between when our kids would bring home unusual pets. Once
our son found a garter snake he named Stringy. I loved him on first
sight - I'd had snakes of my own when I was young, but we had to get
his mother's approval. She was at work, so while I worked out what I'd
say I told my son to put Stringy in an empty aquarium stored in the
attic. Unfortunately he put the lid on crookedly, and Stringy
disappeared. We searched frantically for him before I had to get their
mother from work. Just as time ran out, one of us looked up at the top
of the bedroom window, and there was Stringy coiled along the curtain
rod! Somehow he must have climbed the drapes to reach his perch.
Anyway, it all ended happily. I made a successful spiel on behalf of
Stringy, and he became a member of our family.

I've heard that many people think that Australia and Austria are the same
place, which would certainly lead to that kind of confusion!

they've used that in the Mary Tyler Moore Show, where they had that jackass
Ted Baxter complaining about a report he had to read on something in Austria:
"And look how they spelled Australia!"

Blessed be,
