on-going research into developing techniques to control the snakes,
Have they considered no limit hunting and lots of snakeskin boots, jackets, and bikinis?

Were the Olympics everything that you thought they would be? Welcome back by the way. Did you miss Florida?

Monster python? Did you bring home any of those Olympic souvenir condoms?
Finding one in your yard will really improve your long jump and 100 meter dash.

Welcome back Dave. I thought it said a Monty Python at first. Obviously I need more coffee.

Welcome home, Dave/. I was about to send this but I knew you'd be all over it...so to speak.
And yes, I saw Monster Python open for Ozzy.

87 eggs and no predators. What could possibly go wrong?

Let's just get Flo to try to sell the snakes insurance.
Then, they'll install their own tracking devices.
Voila!

Oh, a real python. I thought Dave meant something else, IYKWIMAITTYD.

Dave has Olympic souvenir condoms in his yard? Why can't he just plant flowers like the rest of us?

The pythons are welcome in my yard if they'll eat groundhogs.

Boots for all the blogettes?

Kate plus 87 ???

They're really a reproductive and invasive animal ... kind of like, oh, hell, what is it? Something sapiens, I think it was. Breeds like mad, holds silly games every four years, invades things ...
It'll come to me.

Wiredog, you've got it backwards. Ban hunting of the python and outlaw snakeskin products. Then let the poachers and black marketeers do their work. They'll be gone in no time.

If having 8 kids makes one an Octomom then what does having 87 make one?

Ken! You da man!!!!!
Phython is the new neutral.

Sorry Jan, shoulda watched that antecedent. Olympic condoms make nice balloon pythons for the kiddies, though.
Posted by: Loudmouth | August 14, 2012 at 12:17 PM
I figure one snake that size will make about 4 pairs of python boots or snakeskin socks.
Posted by: Loudmouth | August 14, 2012 at 12:23 PM
Loud,
Good guess. Think a mid-sized handbag and a clutch as well.

'Puter bag and weekender would round it out nicely, Mikey. O/T My hubby's having his colonoscopy tomorrow!!!
Posted by: Jan in Grimsby | August 14, 2012 at 12:49 PM
Jan,
Been there! But it is worth it! The prep is the worst part. YUCK!!!! I found that if you keep the yucky stuff cold and count to 10 as you drink it, it seems to help.
But the rest is just a nap.
Good luck to your hubby!
Posted by: MikeyVA | August 14, 2012 at 02:16 PM
Thanks Mikey. I'm next. Got Dave's motivational video on a loop.
Posted by: Jan in Grimsby | August 14, 2012 at 02:25 PM
Segue from very large snake to colonoscopy. Makes me shudder.

" Judas Snake "... Probably already the name of a rock group.

There's supposed to be the word "burp" between the brackets.
Posted by: Not My Usual Alias | August 14, 2012 at 03:26 PM
I wonder if Dave has jet lag? Dave? Dave wake up! Do you have jet lag? Dave?
*grabs NMUA's ankles to pull him out of jaws of death, see's snake and let's go*
Posted by: nursecindy | August 14, 2012 at 04:45 PM
Dave's not here, man.

And are you sure we're not in Seattle?
