The really good thing is she knew not to poke at it, which is how most people get bitten.
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

Poke it or step on it.
Rattlesnakes are pretty common in California. When I was working military police at Miramar, the first round in our weapon was always snake shot. We'd come across at least one a week. Usually run over by a car on the road.

Snake Shot? Who knew there was such a thing.
I love stories of Sail's MP history as much as I love Bev's stories of being in the theater.

I still call those scissory extendo claw thingies "snakegrabbers" from my Mt. Diablo Park Aide days. I only had to use them for rattlesnake moving once, but it was memorable. Completely uneventful, but burned in my brain.

Yikes, this Superbowl is close. There will be no fingernails left in Wisconsin or Pittsburgh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, I was just going to say this game is a nail-biter....

I was just thinking that it's a better game than I expected, as someone who doesn't root for either team.

I dread Wisconsin losing because I know people who will be devastated.

Ahhh, tell it it to Cleveland, you babies. They haven't won a championship in any sport since 1948.
