A twenty foot snake would weigh hundreds of pounds and there is no

Dragging something horizontally is much different from having to pick
it up. Overcome friction, and you're good to go.

True, but he's talking about a live snake. *Big difference there!

Agreed on both accounts.

The only time my wife ever called and asked if I could come home from
work early was when she opened a bottom kitchen drawer and found a 4'
red rat snake curled up.

All this snake talk reminds me of something I saw on TV years ago. You
may have seen it. It was in Florida. A guy called the cops saying there
was a snake in his crawl space. The cops said they don't do snakes. The
guy says, but it's a big snake. The cops still don't do snakes, so he
called one of those critter ridder companies.

Anyway, they show up and this guy crawls under the house, and gets all
excited, and proceeds to pull out a 20 something foot boa or python. I
can't remember exactly. Me, I don't like crawl spaces because they have
spiders and bugs. No way would I ever crawl inside knowing there's a
snake in there, let alone a 20' snake.

I try to do anything around the house first and only call in the
professionals if I'm making the situation worse, but in that case - "HELP!"

And frankly I don't regret it either.

Lucky for me they apparently didn't like the bars in Olongapo!

Sounds like a great use for the miserable beasts. Snake bait. Love it.

Hey, at least they're good for something! I actually had a friend
who's mom raised the nasty little things. Barely bright enough to
housebreak. The gators where I lived in FL loved them. Every once in
awhile you'd hear of a retiree walking their yapper by the water to
come back with only a leash!

I am generally pretty easy going with snakes around the house. The only
one I ever killed was a water moccasin that was chasing my dog.

Damn, I have heard water moccasins were aggressive, but I never realized
they were that aggressive. I'm glad they aren't around here. ;-)
