I had to go to a gravel pit in Southwick today. I walked up to a big pile of dirt and, lo and behold, there was an enormous rattlesnake sitting there. I didn't hear the thing ratting because there was a truck running nearby, and the thing damn near bit me.
This is yet another reason why I should be allowed to conduct all my inspections while armed with a shotgun.
Indiana Jones: There's a big snake in the plane, Jock!
Jock: Oh, that's just my pet snake Reggie.
Indiana Jones: I hate snakes, Jock! I hate 'em!
Jock: C'mon, show a little backbone, will ya?
About Me
- Tom
- Hi, my name's Tom. I'm a fairly simple and straightforward creature-- most of the time I try to live and let live. All I really want is peace, freedom, and fewer fat bastards on top eating all the pie. Somehow I manage to be smarter than I look.
My job is weird and complicated, and has in the past involved everything from climbing mountains to crawling through sewers, dealing with things that could go boom, and digging up partially-decayed poultry.
