Snakes are not fast in their eating. However, it's fun to taunt a poisonous snake with a rodent in its jaws because it can't do anything but be ticked off at you.
Brighid - I thought that you'd be compassionate toward rodents. When you think about it, they're beloved of the Federal Government because so much land is preserved so that this rodent or that can thrive.
What me! You got the wrong Cowgirl if you think I like the Feds or rodents (another form of Fed). Mismanagement of Fed lands, that shouldn't be federal lands to begin with, has been a corner stone of the American west.
This blog has many elements and depending on your interests, may pique your imagination...or not. I urge you to be unreasonable. Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. The unreasonable persist in trying to adapt the world to themselves, therefore all progress depends on unreasonable people. The more unreasonable you are, the more likely you are to enjoy this blog. All men dream, but not equally.
If you're a socialist or a Marxist, you'll find that I poke fun at your absurd notions of "good government" on a regular basis. So you might not wish to follow this blog because you'll be offended.
John Locke said, "One unerring mark of the love of truth is not entertaining any proposition with greater assurance than the proofs it is built upon will warrant." I like what Locke said. We can't theorize without adequate information because when we do we inevitably twist facts to suit theories rather than theories to suit facts. In this blog and in my life, I try to maintain this perspective.
Either you believe in our essential spark of shared divinity, or you succumb to our human insecurity. Either way your conscience lets you slice it, the main thing is to earnestly do what is right at the time.
Today, I balance work and play as much as anyone can. All things remaining equal, play is more important. Life is short - it's important to make every day count for something, if only to yourself.
I'm a former tinker/tailor/soldier/sailor who has now decided that maybe it really wasn't all done for nothing.

Ahhhhhhhh! What a cute rat.
They're snake food.
The best & most humane way to flatten those things is to repeatedly hard tap them with a framing hammer...
Takes too long to do that. I demand the instant gratification that the sledge hammer brings. That, or feed it to the snake.
