Frigging Rattlesnake!!
The wife and I were out for a ride today down to Southern Oklahoma again. We're on our way back and our butts are getting sore so we pull over at this scenic view that has a curio shop for a rest. There's one of those scenic view telescopes and a short trail out back. Anyway, this cracker that works at the shop walks up to me and says "I think there's a rattlesnake a few feet down from the trail entrance, would you mind keeping people from coming down here for a minute while I make sure?" I figure this guy doesn't know a rattlesnake from a garden snake so I say "Sure, go check it out dude." He gets a tree limb and procedes down the trail head about 10 feet. The angle downward is very steep so he disappears from view after just a few steps. I hear this commotion going on, hoots, hollars, cursing etc. Next thing I hear is "Heads Up!" This cracker **** got the snake wrapped around the tree limb and flings the SOB up onto the parking lot. It hits the asphalt about four feet from my feet and slides another two feet right frigging in front of me. It took me about 2 milliseconds to determine that it was a Western Diamondback and boy was it pissed! I jump about the same time that the snake strikes at me while all the on lookers are taking this scene in. I swear, if there hadn't been a bunch of little kids around, I would have beat the living crap out of that guy. Besides that, it was a pretty good ride.

Sorry gotta laugh too. But since I have been there and done that I think I can. Was dove hunting many moons ago. Looked down and there was a 5 foot rattle snake a foot in front of me, all coiled up. So I know.
