Yes, if you look close you do see blue paint on the grass beside this bugger. I figured he wouldn't scare me or anyone else again if I painted him indigo blue. (Was this illegal?)

If you had the time to paint it, surely you had time to get something to kill it with.

Had alittle to much time on his hands I think.
Forget about not being about to find prey people.
Can you imagine the abuse the poor thing will take when he tries to go home and explain the blue paint wasnt his idea??

I didn't take time to go get paint. I sas marking boundary lines with blue paint - and a pressurized sprayer - when this sucker struck my leg. Thankfully I had chaps on and he didn't get me. This is a cottonmouth and the paint will come off when he gets back in the pond. I thought I was doing pretty good by not killing him. Have tried to show more restraint in this area. But my adrenlin was pretty high and I sprayed him without thinking much about it.

Yeah, I know it is, Chris. I read that book when I was in the 8th grade...and the thought of being painted scared me half to death. So, I went crying to mother and she gave me the business about reading Ian Fleming at that age and when she got done with me, I quit worrying about being painted.chrisy":25d3gp7y said:Alice":25d3gp7y said:Remember the book/movie Goldfinger?

Alice....It is a myth that if you paint a person the will die because the skin can't breath. that was one of the things Flemming used to do to sensationalize his stories...it is on snoops.com about not being true.
