1. The last report was that he may lose his hand

You can watch CBS2 News to see if they do a followup or google rattlesnake selfie or the victim's name, Alex Gomez, to check for other updates.

2. god people are stupid

she proclaims, after having ANOTHER one of the fuckers in the house last week.

I finally ordered a snake stick because the damn shovels are never where they are supposed to be and I seem to need a certain type of long handled tool just a leeetle too often around here.

nobody is going to have that in their truck or leave it somewhere down by the corral. it will have its spot on my tool wall and will be available for its sole purpose!

3. That would scare the crap out of me, Kali!

Having them periodically show up in your house? Yikes!

By the way, this was the second rattlesnake selfie snakebite here recently. This was in the L.A area; the other was in San Diego last month.

4. it certainly is not a calming event!

but this time of year one has to be on the look-out for them anywhere outside. you just sort of want to be able to not think about them in the house. I mean, you have other things to worry about. like scorpions

we need some serious work on the screen doors, obviously. maybe this fall? yeah sure.
