Schmidt Meister Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 I did a search to see where this place was and this one I think is in Columbus GA. BUT there must be a need for them because almost every large city has one, lol. "Hey honey, I'm stuck at 'The Office' again.

Schmidt Meister Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 If you forget your ePass, you should probably turn your azz around and try it again tomorrow, lol. The cost without a 'Pass' is seriously out of my plans. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmidt Meister Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 This picture was taken In my home town in 1964 during Hurricane Dora. This is the main drag through town, Hwy 90, looking west from the center of town. Live Oak, FL always floods during heavy storms, to this day. I was 4 years old when this picture was taken. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidt Meister Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 12 hours ago, 21 shooter said: Most of them get a pass unless they get to close to the house. Black snakes are great for eliminating a rat problem. One family I knew had a big but old 2-story house that had a black snake as a resident when they bought it and to date nary a rat has been seen. And he had a name! Some folks though had quite the reaction when they realized the decoration on the mantle was alive. Putting your hand on a tier pole in a tobacco barn and feeling something slithering under it greatly increases one’s acrobatic abilities. This was usually the first barn of the year. First primings can be interesting when you swat an unseen snake with a leaf of tobacco, usually resulting in both parties vacating the immediate area. Water moccasins aka cotton mouth, do not get a pass. They have a nasty disposition. Until now I had forgotten about those fun days. After we had this conversation, I just happened across this on one of the blogs I read. I thought you might appreciate in, as it has some valuable info in it. I'm gonna save the name of the Facebook group, just in case. There’s a FB group, National Snakebite Support, that is run by doctors. You might think this is odd, but many people who get bitten by snakes will first post a photo on social media, and then go looking for professional medical advice and treatment. No, really, it’s a thing. There are two forces driving this. The first is outright stupidity. Somehow, there are people who seem to think getting bitten by a venomous snake is right up there with a bee sting or getting a splinter in your finger. While it is highly unlikely you are going to die from snake bite, you might. Then there’s amputation of the body part, usually a hand or foot, necrosis, and a hell of a lot of pain that goes along with snake bite. You might not die, but you’re going to wish you did, if you get enough venom in you. It’s going to hurt. The next force that pushes people to seek help from strangers on the internet for snake bite is money. Going to the Emergency Room is expensive, and Cro-Fab, the antivenin used to treat snake bites from Copperheads, Rattlesnakes, and Cottonmouths, is incredibly pricey. Listen to this piece of advice from a random stranger from the internet: Go to the ER. Go see a doctor but do it quickly. Do not wait to update your status or try to save money. Go. To. A. Doctor. And here’s where even that breaks down. One of the doctors that started National Snakebite Support has treated over six hundred cases of snake bite in the United States. One thing he realized is the number of medical professionals who have treated even one case is pretty small. And just because the patient didn’t die, that doesn’t mean the doctor did everything right. So, he decided to get people to contact NSS, find out what hospital the victim is heading to, and make sure the doctor knows how to treat the bite. And yes, indeed, there is an App for that, “Snakebite 911” will put you in contact with medical personnel who can guide you towards the right place for the right sort of treatment. One of the guys who is in the group did a study on why and how people get bit. Seems like most bites are from accidental contact with snakes, like stepping on one, or putting your hand somewhere the snake is hiding. In second place are those people who get bit while trying to catch a snake, kill it, or playing with it. Most snake bite kits are useless, and they are dangerous. Toss them. Home remedies do not work. Benadryl does not work. As in most cases for nearly everything, alcohol makes it worse. Do not apply cow manure, electrical shock, burning gunpowder, religious amulets, talismans, the blood of a virgin, horsehair, breakfast cereal, dog saliva, ice, heat, old newspapers soaked in vinegar, or chocolate to a snake bite. Watch where you walk and leave snakes alone. You’ll be fine. Take care, Mike And I will leave you with this. It’s the best way to get tagged by a snake who is packing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was more than a couple of years ago. Nowadays they would call out a swat team. Also during deer season there were quite a few that were late to class or had to leave early in the evening, including more than one teacher. At that time of the year even the flimsiest of excuses were, well, excused. Life, people, and the world were a lot better then. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were in school, back in the day, there were NO laws about carrying a firearm in your vehicle. In the sticks/hunting woods where I live, it's just assumed you had a loaded firearm in your truck. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the Carolina’s, I forget which one, got a new auto factory for a German car. BMW I think. After a couple years they gave up and made the first day of deer season a paid holiday. So many “I’m sick [if I can’t go deer hunting.]” calls they couldn’t run the plant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batesmotel Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Here the teachers union annual convention was the two days before the opening of deer season. Specifically planned that way so kids could get off for the hunt. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
