Skipper: Trust me, the Cotton Mouths and gators are much bigger problems than sharks. Today’s St. Petersburg Times is reporting a gator attack in Land O’Lakes. I just killed a trophy Cotton Mouth outside my front door. I sharpened my ax after that fight. The neighbor wanted to shoot it but that’s against the rules. My other neighbor, Feather Dance, couldn’t kill it because of the “Strong Power” of the Cotton Mouth in the so-called spirit world.
It is true when you enter the water you can drop a bit on the food chain.
Hey Allan-speaking as one of those so called “politically correct shark-huggers”:

Barb: be careful where you point that finger .... it might go off!
Maybe those sharks could be offered some excess Gitmo detainees as a peace offering…

OCM: Gators are in the pools.
A Dunedin resident, 30 minutes south, awakes to find 9 1/2-foot reptile in her screened in pool, the St Pete Times is also reporting today. She called the trapper but he was busy with an 11 1/2-foot alligator at the intersection of 49th Street and Ulmerton Road. Supposedly, a 15 foot gator was hauled away from our neighborhood last week by the county. When it warms up these gators go hunting.
We have not found a gator in our screened in area, called a lanai, but we do get large frogs somehow.
Found this over on the Rottweiler Empire - in Fwance, the land of the cheese-eating surrender monkey moonbat, the powers that be get their panties in a twist over bashing rats with a shovel:

Mais non, mon ami, c’est vraiment execrable pour smasher les rattes avec une shovelle…

I used a spade to kill that poisonous snake. I’m glad I’m not French.
I sent a picture to the Skipper maybe he will post it.
It was either him or me, it was self defense.
Glad you made it, Z. That snake was a lousy lurker anyway and he never posted anything but venom.
My Dad lived in Winter Haven, FL, for several years - one time when I was visiting him we saw baby gators swimming in the canals near his home............baby gators eventually become BIG adult gators.........sheesh, am glad my Dad no longer lives there..........Now he lives in Maine where the worst he has to contend with is the big snowstorms during the winter months............
