Message-ID: <472@cuuxb.UUCP> Date: Wed, 19-Mar-86 09:04:40 EST Article-I.D.: cuuxb.472 Posted: Wed Mar 19 09:04:40 1986 Date-Received: Fri, 21-Mar-86 04:08:22 EST Distribution: net Organization: AT&T-IS, Customer Support, Lisle, Il. Lines: 36 Yeh, I suspected there were a couple of varieties of vipers in Delaware. I just wonder if they like cookies though. It sounds like we better warn the folks in net.rec.nude, Jody(8-). Which are more dangerous, the DuPonts or the cotton mouths and copperheads? We have a few snakes right here in Lisle. There are a couple of cops who turn kinda pale when they have to deal with the critters. When my friend Jim was around, He'd take his snake tongs and get the snake. He and Ester Lewis would take the critter out in the sticks and let it go. Ester Lewis has taken her "Teddy 'Gators" and other such pets on the Tonight show. She's with the Chicago "Herp" Society. I've taken a couple of "dates" over to Ester's house to show them her pet room. Some ladies like that stuff, some don't. You folks might be surprized to know how many people have held and petted "Ti". He's the friendlier of her two 6'long alligators. He thinks he's a lap dog and will curl up on a couch and take a nap with you if ya let him. Aw, but alas. The silly beast snores... Just a bit of trivia. Ester's two large gators are about the same age as the small one she has of the same breed. The two large ones are about 6' long and the small one (Same age, now) is 12 inches long. THe large ones were raised in a pen and the small one was raised in a small terrarium. He belonged to someone else before she bought him. See how you people get me off on tangents?(8-) Just look what you done here. What was I doing before I started yammering about reptiles? Oh yeh, work(8-(. Take it light... Grizzly
