The pythons can be 20 feet long and 250 pounds. They are highly adaptable to new environments.
A past NaNoWriMo novel I’ve been editing and doing further research for is about the trade in exotic reptiles, so this isn’t exactly news to me. It was the alarming Disaster Movie of the Week tone of the article that made it a must-post.
And make no mistake, I find it highly alarming.
Must admit, I think We is the best name you could ever give a 2-headed creature of anykind.
Life Is Confusing For Two-Headed Snakes. I’m sure it is.
I’m allergic to shrimp. Nevertheless, I’ve been obsessed with Giant Shrimp Day ever since Karen brought a Long John Silver’s press release to my attention:
“We’ve been following the Mars Exploration project since the beginning,” Davis wrote, “and we’ve been anxiously awaiting word of evidence of an ocean on Mars. The rovers have been extremely busy since they arrived on Mars – they’ve had ‘plenty of things on their plate.’ Now, with the discovery of ocean water, America can add one more thing to its plate – free Giant Shrimp.”
Davis ended the letter by writing, “This is one small step for man, and one giant leap for Giant Shrimp.” He also again expressed interest in Long John Silver’s becoming the first seafood restaurant on Mars.

My hands are killing me today, so that’s all you get. I’ve been working on some pretty amazing stuff though, so keep checking back for details. You won’t want to miss it!
A helpful co-worker pointed out that at least I haven’t been hit by lightening.
Know those things that sit just at the back of your mind and pop up to bug you at random times? This is one of them. I hadn’t gotten around to mentioning it here because frankly I kept waiting for someone to yell “Just kidding. We were only kidding.” Sadly, it hasn’t happened yet.
What is this world coming to that a man named Skunk (that’s Jeff “Skunk” Baxter to you), a man who played back-up guitar for The Doobie Brothers is not only some sort of self-styled missile defense expert but has convinced THE PENTAGON that he is some sort of missile defense expert. I can’t even comment anymore, it weirds me out to much. I swear I’m not making it up, but maybe FOXnews is. I can hang on to that small shred of hope, can’t I?
(ed note: there used to be a whole category called “things i lie awake at night thinking about” but now it’s all filed under “what the hell”)
