It got a little exiting at HBombs a little while ago. I was **** around and had a bundle of RS rca connectors in hand when I looked to my right and there was a snake. I nearly **** but instead froze and began formulating my plan. After about a nanosecond had elapsed I began beating the living PISS out of it with the bundle of RCA's I had. I WON!!!:D

My new neighbor I learned is a retired Navy Seal so I figured who better to ask wher or not it was poisonous and it turned out to be just a field snake.

Anywho... I had to have a BEER after all that:p

    You realize you have to burn in your cables again after such a shock. It could have been worse, that snake could have been what you though was one of the cables you grabbed.:D :D:D

    I hate snakes. One time I found one in my yard. I hit it with a shovel to try and make it go away but every time I hit it he lurched towards me. No fear at all. Really freaked me out. I hacked him up in 5 pieces before the adrenalin stopped. Afterwards I was glad no one was watching me. They would have thought I was some mad skitzo mass murderer if they had seen me. I felt bad later when I found out he was harmless but I didn't loose any sleep. It was him or me!

    That would have been even funnier if you had blindly reached down, and plugged a snake into your stereo. :D

    If you own a .22 LR handgun or rifle, CCI makes a neat little product called the .22 LR shotshell.

    It uses 165 #12 size pellets in a .22 LR cartridge (there is a little blue translucent shot holder where the bullet normally would be).

    Perfect for sending venomous snakes to the big den in the sky at up to about 20 feet distance. I wouldn't use it inside, but if you have snakes about, it is perfect for outdoor use around the house without having to touch off a real shotgun and piss off the neighbors.

    If you had've plugged the snake into your RCA jacks; You might've gotten a little hiss in your speakers.:D How's that for distortion.
