Seriously. I'm. Not. Kidding.
I told you, and I told you, but... You. Just. Don't. Listen.
Posted by Vanderleun at September 30, 2008 7:53 PM | TrackBackOkay. I am retiring the word creepy henceforth, Gerard. I used it in a post tonight, and while I would consider it creepy, nothing compares to the flesh crawl I just experienced watching that. You win. Creepiest video ever.
Posted by: Jewel at September 30, 2008 8:46 PMIt's especially creepy when you let your mind wander over to the possibilities in all those guillotine manoeuvers that never had the chance to get YouTube'd.
Posted by: at September 30, 2008 8:56 PMYep, not unusual at all. Just 3 months ago I killed a copperhead in the yard (machete-based decapitation) and showed my sons why you always, always, ALWAYS crush the head of a poisonous snake under your bootheel. Rattlers, copperheads, and cottonmouths will all "bite" for up to 6 hours after they are dead.
Posted by: Deep Thought at September 30, 2008 9:00 PMcreepy, but nothing to lose your head over.
Posted by: pdwalker at September 30, 2008 11:44 PMOh, big hairy deal. I did that to a snake in Guatemala thirty years ago and watched all six pieces wriggle and writhe around in the corn field. Made good fertilizer, according to the farmer from whom we were renting at the time. His six year old son wanted to play with the head, but the farmer wisely kept him at bay. The dog, on the other hand...

Posted by: Cris at October 1, 2008 5:41 AMWhen I saw the headline, I assumed it was the video of the children singing their ode to Dear Leader.
You're right. It WAS a little creepier than that.
Posted by: rickl at October 1, 2008 5:09 PMYeah... My next door neighbor, and physician, brought over a box and dumped the contents on my kitchen table.
It was a rattlesnake he had shot through the snout blowing out its fangs and its brain.
It was pissed off, but not all together, so while it could coil, and rattle (slowly) in the middle of my table, it couldn't bite. Still, it was pretty lively....
It was delicious skinned, sectioned and deep fried in peanut oil; served buffalo-wing style in Frank's Hot Sauce and butter with bleu cheese dressing.
To demonstrate the parasympathetic nervous system, my neighbor (and physician) then put the heart in a little puddle of beer to watch it start beating again.
There is always, always plenty of beer involved in these kind of things.
Since he shot it, he got to drink the heart in a shot of whiskey--chinese style.
The dried head is sitting in my liquor cabinet right now. If you look at the snout, you can see right through the back of its dessicated head through a .22 calibre tunnel.
How funny is it that from this story, you can correctly guess what political party I am and whom I am voting for!

The debate is gonna happen in about an hour. I wish Sarah could relate some of her rattlesnake skinning tales. No kidding. I'd also like her, when asked the first question, to let her hair out of the clip and kind of shake her head allowing her hair to fall about as she removes her glasses.
Is that wrong?
