Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.
As a kid, we lived out West, and I always a horny toad, but my parents wouldn't let me keep one.
When I grew up and could have kept one, they were all gone.
In school: We learn lessons, and are given tests.

OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

EVERYONE!
Back to your oars. The Captain wants to waterski.
My father was a Herpetologist, so as a kid growing up we always had all manner of reptiles in the house. He had a large aquarium placed on top of the clothes dryer for the "free" heat. Once he had a small but mean Boa Constrictor in that aquarium, and when I walked past the dryer one day he tried to strike at me and actually broke the glass. He didn't escape, but it still scared the you know what out of me. He would always take us kids on "collecting" expeditions, I will always have fond memories of doing that with him.
No thanks. Prefer pets with hair. And like to eat things with scales—fish.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the granddaughter has some kind of a snake.

I used to keep and breed snakes and geckoes. Had as many as 50 at one time. It was fun, but turned into work. But I still like snakes, I just don't like when the venomous ones come in the yard.
I still have one snake. It was one I hatched, sold to a friend of my brother's, and about 5 years later he called me saying he was now married and about to have a baby, and the wife said no snakes. So he sent her back to me, enclosure and all. She's probably 12-13 years old now, and I'll keep her until she dies in her mid-to-late 20's.
I've had all kinds of lizards, snakes, geckoes, turtles, etc over the years. I always liked reptiles.

Had a couple different iguannas, some anoles, red eared sliders and currently have a couple russian tortoises that should outlast me.
My son has had a lizard for almost twenty years now. It doesn’t do much, just eats crickets.
Reptiles don't bother me at all. In my business,, I get to see my share of the native wild ones. Plus the occasional exotic. Many folks freak out,, by these things,, but not me.
There was this one job,, where this guy was keeping 65 poisonous snakes,, many exotic & a few w/o an anti-venom,, in plastic containers,, no lids,, using the bottom of custom shelves as the lid so he could easily feed etc,,,, that got bit by a European Long Nose Viper,, then the county called upon me for my services,,,, as he was arrested & charged with many violations,,,! Gabboon Vipers, Cobras, etc. Fun times!
Snakes ... either you can watch the movie ..."Snakes On A Plane" ... or you can't !
Well ... can you sit through the whole movie or do you break and run at the good part ?

I used to catch snakes when I was a kid.
Then I got older and smarter.
I tolerate snakes but have no desire to be their friend.
Snakes that wish to be my friend had better realize I'll only back up for a little while.
Glad, lol me too....I believe the 'stand your ground' law applies here?!
It seems that people who do almost nothing, often complain loudly when it's time to do it.
Being raised in Fl I have a healthy respect for reptiles as a kid I saw a gator climbing our chain link fence to get my hound the old man took care of the gator right quick like I don't fear any of em just show a healthy respect for some of em.
Cool. I miss my ball python I lost when my house burnt. He was a rescue. Cool too. He used to ride around my neck with his head sticking out my beard. He knew I was a safe spot.
I love the green anoles and blue racers that I have around my property. God bless anything that eats a bug.
