I was out of town for a few days and when I returned, I found a new cobra:

Pretty sure it's an original.

Not an original, they only came in imitation snake skin not the real stuff! Can you imagine opening a house door and finding that looking you in the eyes?

Ray,
So they have rain forests in CA, too. That is the "super snake" I've always heard about! OMG.
WEK.

Hey, I had an uncle who had one of those... ;-o)

I have actually handled one of those (about a 6-footer.) Impressive strength, quick and very-VERY intimating when they rear and flare the hood. I would almost rather handle a cobra than a constrictor. With a cobra, you only have to worry about keeping the head under control. With a large boa, python etc. you have to not only worry about the head (and the HUNDREDS of teeth) but also keep adjusting, fighting, pushing etc. to keep them from getting a coil around you.

He almost gets bit at least once in this video:

Getting ready for bed-now I'll probably have nightmares.
Thanks.
