How funny your story was about men and their toys. I really
enjoyed it. BTW, You mentioned 2 of the 3 most feared critters
on earth, the 3rd one being "snakes". I can pick up live or dead rats and
snakes, and have handled both. My brother, who was in the Vietnam War,
called me to come over and get a snake out of his yard. He was in the back
of his pickup truck with a gun in his hand, pointing it at a 4 to 5
foot live King snake. I just picked up the snake, laid it across my
shoulders and carried it home. (I live across the road) But spiders, with
Black Widows being the WORST, scare me every time. I have to practice slow
breathing so I don't panic. Give me rats and snakes ANY day, EVERY
day in lieu of one Black Widow....

(I am practicing slow breathing now as I can feel my chest
tightening just by thinking about a B.W.)
