    It's tough finding them in the winter--they're hibernating.

    I've never had the guts to actually pick one up.

    I tuned in to "Snakes on a Plane" today for about fifteen minutes...just as the snakes came out and started biting everyone. What a hilarious movie. Destined to be a cult classic.

    This thread reminds me of an episode of Del Monte Python that had me laughing so badly kernels of corn came out of my nose.

    It is very dangerous to get coins out of rattlers, so it is best to keep anti-venom around just in case you get bitten by the rattler.

    i killed a rattler once, we were on a hike and there it was advancing on my camp kids so i beat it with a stick and crushed its head.

    also got bit by a snake but it wasn't poisonous -- still swole up real good tho.

    Go to the doctors if a coin rattles. This means your marbles are loose and you think your coins are rattling. Yaha

    I would first wonder what the snake was doing in my collection...

    Maybe it was bought from a snake?
