Hmmm...an American snake in Belfast??
I don't think Sam Jackson got 'em all...

Good to see Donald Trump made it to Ireland safely. For the record, you can keep him.

Snake... I thought he was dead.

"Corn Snake Surprise"
I could swear I had that for dinner at Luby's once.

I'm surprised that's not a story about Australia.

{"It's a wee bit different, not what you'd expect to find when you come home from work," he said.}
Makes me wonder what he normally finds.

*waits patiently for Hammie to wave his snake at her*
Posted by: Diva | March 26, 2008 at 12:10 PM
*WAVES @ Hammie!!!*
(will settle for your hand, thanks)
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 12:15 PM
Ugh. Name it "Oliver Cromwell" and sell it on eBay.
*waves Hammie @ corn snake*

"Born a member of the House of Orange-Nassau, William III won the English, Scottish and Irish Crowns following the Glorious Revolution, during which his uncle and father-in-law, James II, was deposed."
Uncle AND f-i-l the same person?
was this Kentucky?
No.
The families must have been WAY more fun back then.

Oh and btw, Merri Lee - I read that too. What an effin' one-legged ho. I feel like smacking her off her good leg.
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 12:27 PM
psst, Siouxie, you have the machete, give her a matching set.
Posted by: wickedwitch | March 26, 2008 at 12:35 PM
*snork* @ wicked!
(help me hide the leg??)

(help me hide the leg??)
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | March 26, 2008 at 12:47 PM
LOL, jug! You know those crazy kids - euphemisms for everything!
Posted by: Diva | March 26, 2008 at 12:58 PM
*Waves @ Diva!!!*
*Waves @ Siouxie!!!*
*Waves @ Annie!!!*
Posted by: Hammond Rye | March 26, 2008 at 01:03 PM
jug, if I had to put money on the blogger most likely to be featured in a blog thread story....just sayin'.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | March 26, 2008 at 01:04 PM
**pssst!** guys, don't forget to check out the French first lady pics in the same newspaper. That is all.
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 26, 2008 at 01:10 PM
Oops, the same one as the Heater Mills complaing article
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 26, 2008 at 01:12 PM
Hammie, just what are you waving????
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 01:12 PM
*waves back at Hammie!!!!*

Posted by: SpamLamb | March 26, 2008 at 01:23 PM
Baron, don't diss Luby's. Thirty years of Luby's profit sharing (deceased hubby was a unit manager) placed in a safe investment has allowed me to be a 'ho of leisure.
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 01:24 PM
LOL Tex! I wanna be a ho of leisure when I grow up.
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 01:31 PM
Hidey 'ho, Sioux!!!!
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 01:37 PM
heh! Time for a 'ho down, Tex!

The Pirate Woman claims that $70,000/yr in child support isn't enough. She's also moving to America (it worked for Yoko Ono?) I assume she'll be getting P. Diddy's baby's mama's attorney - she made him raise his MONTHLY child support checks from $12K to $22K, even though he was also paying his health care, school tuition and clothes. WTF does he eat?
Posted by: Merri Lee | March 26, 2008 at 01:51 PM
Sioux, it's hard to keep a good 'ho down.
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 01:58 PM
She just will never give up. She's a publicity ho, in addition to everything else.
Posted by: Eleanor | March 26, 2008 at 02:05 PM
Texgal, With enough cinderblock and chain, and with a sufficiently deep lake, you can keep just about anything down.
Posted by: Hammond Rye | March 26, 2008 at 02:09 PM
Good point, Hammie.
Eleanor, I do hope that you're referring to the Mills 'ho and not the Texgal 'ho, 'cause I is a higher klass of 'ho.

I don't know if you've heard the 25th Anniversary of Thriller, but the owner of The Beatles' catalog cut Paul McCartney out of "The Girl is Mine."
It's not easy being Paul these days.

snork @ Texgal
Posted by: daisymae | March 26, 2008 at 02:18 PM
Now up for bid on ebay: a corn snake in the shape of the Mississippi river.
Posted by: JEC666 | March 26, 2008 at 02:20 PM
Tex, I was going to ask El the same thing. As a Cuban-type ho, I'd take offense.
Hammie, I'm sure you don't speak from experience - but thanks for the tip.
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 02:21 PM
The building managers just found a snake in the heating ducts of the office next door.
*runs screaming out of blog*
Posted by: Merri Lee | March 26, 2008 at 02:27 PM
I would take umbrage but El keeps hiding it.
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 02:27 PM
*snork* @ Hammie.
It's hard enough for me to keep my lunch down after hearing about Heather...again.
Posted by: Diva | March 26, 2008 at 02:30 PM
*Hands Merri a hoe to kill any snakes slithering nearby*
Disclaimer: Texgal is not afraid of snakes and prefers to let them live so that they may eat terrorist rodents living near the homestead.
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 02:33 PM
Siouxie, if you need to take umbrage, you can have some of mine. I have plenty.
Posted by: Bãrön vønKlýff | March 26, 2008 at 02:36 PM
Ooooo ooo oooo, Pirate Woman
You've got the alimony in your eyes
oooooo ooo oooooo Pirate Woman
A lust for money you can't disguise
Posted by: Wench Lizzy | March 26, 2008 at 02:37 PM
Thank, Baron - you're a pal!
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 02:44 PM
*tosses an 's' ^there*
Posted by: Siouxie | March 26, 2008 at 02:47 PM
JEC666: don't be making stuff up about that . . .
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 26, 2008 at 02:49 PM
no thank you, i prefer annie's candy corn snake surprise to start my day.
Posted by: crossgirl | March 26, 2008 at 03:01 PM
"Corn snake surprise"
Sounds like something my mom used to make...
Posted by: D-Lited 2B Here | March 26, 2008 at 03:08 PM
Absolutely, Texgal and Siouxie. I know both of you are way classier than Heather ho. ;)
Merri, I'd be gone, gone, gone. And then I'd find someone to sue. ;)
And yes, I have a large supply of umbrage stored away. I could be persuaded to sell some of it, for the right price. See: Mills, Heather. ;
Posted by: Eleanor | March 26, 2008 at 03:09 PM
... and don't they make medication so you don't HAVE to beat the snake to get it started in the morning??
Posted by: D-Lited 2B Here | March 26, 2008 at 03:12 PM
all my umbrage has been used up due to excessive media coverage of politics. jeez, i'll have to wait until after the election to store some more up. now instead of taking umbrage i just get pi$$ed off.

Re lack of snakes in Ireland
Posted by: Mahatma Kane Jeeves | March 26, 2008 at 03:20 PM
That'll teach an orange snake to go sneaking about in a Catholic kitchen.
Posted by: Mr Death | March 26, 2008 at 03:22 PM
*snork* @ Mr Death
Posted by: Diva | March 26, 2008 at 04:05 PM
*huge laugh out loud snorks* @ D2B!!! You go, girl!
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 05:23 PM
MKJ, does this mean that we no longer have an excuse to get drunk as skunks on St. Patty's Day???
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 05:29 PM
Say that ain't so, Tex!
Posted by: Diva | March 26, 2008 at 05:33 PM
Diva, there's no reason to let a little reality get in the way of a good time.
Posted by: Texgal | March 26, 2008 at 05:54 PM
The Irish send us beer, and what do we send them? Snakes! What a bunch of ingrates we are.
Posted by: Guin | March 26, 2008 at 06:46 PM
It's ok, Guin. They taste like chicken. Especially the Orange ones.
*spits in the general direction of Brittania*
