name that snake!

Here's a contest for y'all. Stephanie, over at Mystickal Incense & More wants to name her snake.

That's the fellow there at the left. Actually 'fellow' is just assumed--the gender isn't known so feel free to name it anyway you like.

The winner of the contest will receive a $10 gift certificate to Stephanie's online store at Mystickal Incense & More. It's good for anything in the store. And also there's a $5 Amazon.com gift certificate for the winner!

All that for naming her snake!

The one I like best so far was suggested by someone else unfortunately. Mousebane. I just like the warrior aspect of the name--it seems very snake-like too.

I know nothing about snakes other than I don't ever want one in my house, pet or otherwise, but if I were to name this particular snake, I'd go for Cora because she looks Coral. Of course I KNOW she's not a coral snake, but she still looks coral colored. Whatever!

Hiss, is a good snake name. But, you figure people are just going to say OMG when they see you have a snake so Ohemgee might work.

I was never very creative when I named my corn snakes when I was a kid. I had one called Red and another called Big Red.

My brother was a little better, he called his Jake Cutter (I think after the main character from the Golden Monkey).

Anyway, I think Mousebane is great.

Nitroflex at home

Image
I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h...

ankle update

S ince a few people object to seeing my feet --poor misdirected souls--I have the two pictures below hidden behind links. Behold them at your own risk! *evil laugh* Actually they're not scary though the first one is a little colorful. T he first picture shows my ankle and foot from the side, as labeled. You can see a lot of general edema of the entire foot. There's also a good bit of discoloration of the ankle area and to a lesser degree the top of the foot all the way down to the toes. The side view is a lot worse in this regard than the top view. T he second picture shows the two feet from the top so you can compare the somewhat normal looking right foot to the injured left foot. There's not much abnormal color on this view but you can see the "sausage like" swelling of the left foot. It's this swelling that is causing my main problem--I can't get the foot into my boots and I need the boots to support the ankle. Damn Catch-22. Side view, looking inward ...

Ostrich poop found here

Image
I took these pictures last Fall while visiting the NC Zoo. On the left you can see what appears to be a nice polite ostrich just wandering around. This impression soon turns out to be false when her dowdy tail feathers raise up and reveal a puckered anus. Ewwww! If you look carefully, you can see that she's made a deposit on the ground. More ewwww! Feel free to click on the image to make them bigger. Details can make all the difference in these shots. In other matters, aren't those really bony legs they have? And couldn't they have a little more color?
