ok one of us is dumb...maybe its me

i took my baby to the gas station with me today cause the girl at the gas station loves snakes but can not own one at her appartment complex.....but there was an older guy up there and he startted telling me about how he brought a ball python home with him from africa when the war was over there and its about 12 foot long and they still have in on fort bragg in some kind of building..than he proceeded to tell me that i needed to be carefull cause this snake could easily kill my kids and that his fangs even with a little nip could cause severe pain to myself.......so while he is telling me all this im thinking..havnt i heard all this crap before from the same guy..but he swears hes never talked to me before...i have a bad memory from a brain injury i recieved....so maybe i imagined this conversation....but then i start thinking..well geesh i have never seen any fangs in my snakes mouth..maybe im blind..oh and god i didnt think he could get so big....and a war in africa witht he united states...were was i at when they were teaching me this in school...sorry for the spelling computer is dying dont have a charger trying to get this out there before i have to switch to my phone for internet...just wanted to share an intersting converstation of B.S. i recieved today....told the girl for now on if she wants to see him she has to come by the house...cause people are annoying to me

I think his memory is shot:D. The max size bp I ever heard of was 6ft. They have teeth, lots of them but no fangs. Their teeth curl backwards but that is easier for them to hold on to food with and helps with swallowing of food. Bp bites do not hurt, my adult female(1600 grams) has but me and it drew a little blood, my gtp bites me and it hurt 1000x times worse(and my gtp is only 79 grams) he may have brought home a African rock python, which could get 12+ feet.
You don't have anything to worry about, while a bp bite may hurt for a 7 year old it will not hurt that bad for an adult, plus scraping your knee hurt 100000x worse then any bp bite.

The war in Africa he is talking about is WWII, I'm assuming. "During the Second World War, the North African Campaign took place in North Africa from 10 June 1940 to 13 May 1943. It included campaigns fought in the Libyan and Egyptian deserts (Western Desert Campaign, also known as the Desert War) and in Morocco and Algeria (Operation Torch) and Tunisia (Tunisia Campaign)." <--Wikipedia

Well I do think he is ODF anyway.


ODF = Out Der Flappin

LOL, I love it when people think a ball python is going to kill your whole family. Like it is out for blood or something....ridiculous!

Ignore the fools :)

He was most likely talking about Vietnam and a Burm or Retic...
