Dang.....never would have picked you for a herpetophile!

or, simply attend one of the little clapboard-sided

All the churches I attended during my tenure south of the M/D line,

restaurant and leavened liberally with an apparently profound faith,
failed to include rattlesnake either on the menu or in the service. I
