Snake bitten???

[boatman]

Ah, Medicare. The single payer insurance that everyone over 65 likes while telling you why single payer sucks and won't work as you pay your 4k deductible and 2k per month to have only a 4k deductible....

 

[Dadstoys]

A decent pair of snake boots seem like a far cheaper solution .

Netflix Movie the Package "the dxck gets puked on, bitten by a snake, sucked for venom removal" What would do for a friend?

 

[PATRON]

Did you ever think you would save a lot of money if you died from the bit.

 

[Glockster30]

Here's a couple of dozen for sale on GunBroker.

How the HELL do you get a snake to wear boots?

 

[mibro]

It'd be a hoot, that's all I can say.

 

[MisterHappy]

Has there been a single documented venomous snake attack in MA?

Yes, mostly Copperheads but we do have Timber Rattlers. I believe those are the only two venomous snakes (native) we have. Timbers are darker then what you may expect to see when you think of a buzz worm but it makes sense due to our terrain. Blue hills has them. They used to release king snakes to control them but have since discontinued the practice. Didn't some group want to release some rattlers on one of Quabbin's islands a while ago?

We're in the process of moving from NM to the Tucson AZ area ironically for better medical care. While approaching the fence line to talk to our neighbor we heard loud rattling in the brush. Neighbor said it sounded like a particularly large rattler. I'm thinking "This is why God made shotguns".

What is this "Anti-venom" you are speaking of? Is it something that weakens Antis?

I know what Anti-venin is, but Anti-venom is sort of like calling an AR-15 an "Assault Rifle"

I wouldn’t have believed it if you hadn’t posted the video. I’ve hiked around blue hills quite a bit and had heard the rattlesnakes were long gone. That certainly looked and sounded like BH, and his description fits.

When in AZ, got stopped by DPS for following too closely to the vehicle ahead. He had me step out on the side of the road. He heard a rattler in a bush and shined his flashlight on it. He said "They train us to keep our eye on a potential threat - now I've got two. Wanna take a closer look at him?". I said "No, thanks." 10 feet was close enough for me!

Woodies? Snakes? This seems appropriate.

Years back while coon hunting my friends dog died due to a snake bite. Northern timber rattler is what they said it was. I believe it was Byfield area.

 

[fitzknny]

They removed one from a parking lot in Braintree ( near backside of Blue Hills) just the other day . . . . Rumor has it it was shopping for back to woods boots .

Anyone who puts the dollar sign on the wrong side like this 100$
deserves to be bitten by a snake and beat over the head with a G.E.D.

But you SAY it "one hundred dollars", not "dollars one hundred"!!!

You sure do, but you don't write it that way.
