Kevin "Snakeaholic" Pavlidis, a Florida Man, captured an 18.9 foot Burmese Python in Florida this week.

That's going to make one really LARGE belt for someone.

When Mom was in the hospital briefly last week (blood pressure surged unexpectedly, nothing apparently wrong, adjusted medicine, fine now), we saw a 'reality' show advertised for following around a snake hunting team in Florida trying to get rid of invasive species. It looked like the most Florida thing I've ever seen, and my Dad's family homesteaded part of Tampa!

Mom noped out of that pronto, for which I can hardly say I blame her, but this reminds me that I wanted to look up that show. Help me O internets!

Could it possibly be on the History Channel? Swamp People Florida Edition or some such? If not then there's one coming-out soon anyway. This guy looks like he could fit right in with that crew. Probably any snake with any sense would be afraid to bite him, the contact high would probably kill it.  :hide:

Yep, Swamp People, Serpent Invasion!

Being "Florida Men", the show ended when one of the hosts went to prison recently.  ::)

There are lots of stories about giant Pythons in the Everglades. Just recently a world record, 17 ft. long one was captured if I remember correctly. We might've talked it up here in fact. Usually if it's Idiots vs Giant Snakes, the snakes win. The Intelligence level is about even.  :idiot2:

I'm in S.W. Fla. Starfury that hangs-out here on occasion is nearby I believe.

He's lucky the gator didn't have back-up nearby. Alligators LOVE dogs for some reason, probably their innate curious nature makes them good targets.

A Florida bride and her wedding caterer have been arrested and accused of lacing wedding food, including lasagna, with marijuana and causing several guests to become sick, according to their arrest warrant affidavits.

Some guests reported feeling "stoned" and "ill and high," the affidavits say, while another said he felt "weird, tingly, fidgety, and had an extremely dry mouth" after eating food at the wedding.
According to the affidavits, one woman who attended the wedding told an investigator that while she was at the hospital, she felt paranoid and "believed her husband ... wasn't telling her the truth about other family members," and that her son-in-law had died and no one was telling her. She said she became loud and unruly in the emergency room and had to be given medication to calm down.

 :o  Orlando quit being part of Florida from the time the Mouse took over. I notice nobody said they didn't have a good time.  ;D
