Good point about the crocs vs. gators. I had a hunch that was the case but was too lazy to check. :mrgreen:

There are NO poisonous snakes. You will not die from eating one.

There are, however, VENOMOUS snakes. You may die if one bites you and you are envenomated.
That's OK. I deserved to be called out for using "poisonous," rather than "venomous," as I being a bit of pedant about animal-caused deaths in Africa.

Here’s how I’ve heard it expressed: If it bites you and you die, it’s venomous. If you bite it and you die, it’s poisonous.

Yep. You know we don't hide the crazy aunt in the attic down here. We sit her out on the porch and invite the neighbors over for tea.

An intolerantly "woke" person; not a Nazi who is alert to injustice.

Just like kids. If they can't stop misbehaving, you separate them. The next step is "if you 5 don't stop swearing, I'm going to turn this zoo around and go back home."

The best part is the possibility they’re going to teach all the parrots to swear.
