Snake Charming

For those of you who aren't aware, our hood is home to a few brands of venomous snakes, for example this western cottonmouth found in such habitats as the Marshik Garage and the Marshik Backyard of the mean streets of League City. This is the latest one we found in our garage.

They are normally considered one of the more dangerous species because they are supposed to be pretty aggressive, but this one didn't even show his fangs. He's also pretty small, which I'm told also makes them more dangerous because they're not yet smart enough to control their venom, which they normally need to eat. Most people around here think we're crazy for not killing these things, but they just haven't seen the way Charlie daftly handles these guys with his snake sticks. This little guy indeed was quick work, as seen here (unlike the one that managed to get inside our wall).

PS- charlieandjaime.com is the new place to be.
