    I live on a golfcourse in northwest houston, near "the drink". As I walked my dog this morning I saw a huge water moccasin, or maybe a water snake. Whatever it was I want it gone!

    I've heard that moth balls are a good because the snakes stay away from the smell. I'm wondering if any one has ever had the problem and if other than a shotgun blast how did you deal with it.

    Sam Jackson should be able to take care of them.

    I was thinking of posting a pic but figured by the time I did, someone else would have beaten me to it. :D

    My son brought home his baseball bag the other night from practice when I was out of town. My wife went out to the garage later that night after the kids were asleep and a snake was crawling out of it. she freaked!!!! she called me in little rock and was like, "you pick THIS WEEKEND to go to a conference??? the weekend of the snake??" it was a little non-poisonous snake...but she nearly stepped on it with bare feet. she ended up chopping it in 6 pieces with a shovel. yikes!

    we've got $@#%% snakes in the @#$@%% garage!!!!! :)

    there were tons of snakes near my house growing up. water mocassins, rattlers, coral snakes and tons of copperheads. i always heard that the best thing you could do is get rail from railroads and line the bottom of your fence with them...because they won't crawl over them. i have no idea if that's true or not.


    by the way...i was driving to lunch today and Dave had your pastor, John's, sermon going in the car. wow!!! i enjoyed listening to him!

    sure, that would fix the snake problem...

    ...but that &*$&ing train is in for quite a ride.

    Damn, this Snakes on a Plane movie has hit cult status and it hasn't even come out yet. I wonder if it'll end up being a letdown, and not as campy or unintentially funny as everyone seems to expect.

    At least they are not in the house. I've caught 4 snakes inside mine within the year. All were ribbon snakes ranging from just under a foot to a foot and half.

    that was my favorite cartoon movie as a kid! any movie where the snake loses in the end is a good story in my book.

    SNAKES ON A GOLF COURSE!

    FBI Agent Samuel L. Jackson is protecting the beautiful but high strung federal witness Michelle Wie. Wie insists that she has to play the Palmolive Open. Samuel Jackson reluctantly goes along not knowing that the super villianous Julian Sands has released snakes on a golf course!

    Soon cobras are popping up on the greens and the back nine is overrun by adders but the greatest horror awaiting Agent Jackson and Michelle is the giant copper head python cross breed waiting at the left bunker on the 18th! Its going to be a sudden death shootout!

    Get these mothaf(^kin Snakes out of this mothaf(^kin Sandtrap!
