Not just ball pythons - all frigging snakes are. I want a Rainbow boa, Carpet Python (Jungle or Irian Jaya), Hognose... the list goes on and on! Need more space, more enclosures, more money, different wife (I'm sure she won't stick with a crazy man like me!)

As regards the wife .... just start doing more and more housework and maybe the shopping .... plus try not to spread the vivs into other rooms .... oh and learn the best time to mention about the new incoming snake ... Oh and don't use the bacon tongs for dangling rats ...

@ BWB- I agree with Zinc. Getting new critters with a resistant SO takes precision timing, stealth, cunning, and occassionally a little bribery. My new addition gives me a total of (7) snakes. I promised no more snakes after the 2nd one. Sometimes it takes months of planning and preparation. You'll have to do a few more date nights, foot rubs, and sponsor a mini shopping spree or two . In the end it's worth it if you both get what you want. My last snake was probably my most expensive. Not because of the cost of the snake or the enclosure but because I had to buy mama bear a plane ticket to NY to visit one of her girlfriends. Once I did that it was smooth sailing when I pleaded for just one more snake a few weeks later. She never saw my 'attack' coming . I caught (put) her in a good mood and she didn't object in the least. It's my version of the Jedi mind trick. Ply them with kisses, kindness, and gifts and they'll be putty in your hands.

Hey Ziggy, here's one of your wife's posts I found on another forum:

"As long as I keep acting like I don't want any more snakes in the house that fool keeps showering me gifts, extra lov'n, and doing more housework! That puppet thinks that I don't have a clue what he's doing."


Women are much smarter than you think!

my advice to my teenage son on girls: girls are easy, give them what they want and do what you're told, you'll be a happy man.

@ Reinz- Wait a minute, you mean she's pulling a fast one on ME? Is that reverse/reverse psychology?

@ Dennis- Good words of wisdom from father to son. Like my dad told me, "Happy wife/happy life".

no, she's not pulling a fast one, you're being slow!

[DennisM]
