Her email, titled RATTLESNAKE!

Yes, you heard me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RATTLE SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IN MY BEDROOM!!!!!! I at first thought it was a foot long Bow snake because I didn't see any rattlers on the end of its tail. However when I got closer, it coiled, rattled its tail and took several strikes at me. So, I'd say, if it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, looks close to 99% like a duck....... I'd still think it's a damn duck.

I was afraid to turn my back on it for fear of loosing him in my room, so I ended up covering him with a towel and throwing your father's boot at him. Matter of fact, I threw all of them plus anything else I could find. When I lifted the towel he was still alive but the middle of him was mangled up. I was then able to put him in a heavy clear bag and beat him some more until he was dead, dead, dead!!

She's so awesome, even though it was a bow snake after all.
