I think I just started breathing. whew.
Very inventive of you, Steel. Very brave, as well. I think I would have poured salt on it. Or Clorox. Or extra-hold hairspray to glue him to the front steps.

Who ate it?
Come on, you can tell us. You were the inspiration for MacGyver, weren’t you?
Does Snopes.com have this? No way he single-handedly locked an hysterical woman in a bathroom.
Stink…
MacGyver used to be my favorite show! Thanks for reminding me of the hours I spent amazed at his ingenuity. :=}
Never found a rattler inside the house out here. Have found a diamondback in the driveway, though.
They’re not that common around here. Only the one in 12 years.
Go five miles out into the desert, though, and you’re likely to run into Mr. Buzzing Butt sooner or later. Just bring a .22.
They make decent hatbands, too…
And it’s one of the few meats that even my real-meat-shunning, kibble-crunching ferrets will actually fight over. Nothing left of the rattler but the vertebrae.
And not much left of those.
Couldn’t you have removed the snake without butchering it?
Beheading it was just cruel.
Don’t knock beheading until you try it. I’ve beheaded several chickens in my time. They really will run around afterwards.
