Turns out it was just a harmless Garter snake.

Same here. I’m amazed people actually listen to the garbage on the radio.

He was scared of Rattlesnakes? Does he not realize they don’t hunt humans?

One time this guy in front of me didn’t signal his turn so I honked. He decided it would be a good idea to turn around and follow me 5 miles to my neighborhood. Fortunately he turned around at the entrance.

If you have a Ford with a keypad then you can lock the car with it on with no need for extra keys. It’s pretty great.

Pretty cool. And the sound it made on that drive-by...

Nice! I was going to post this. ha

I always wondered what the third Nolan brother was up to. Turns out he’s writing articles about bread crumbs and vacuums.

As an owner of an ‘06 Explorer with the 3V 4.6, it indeed affected them. Once you change the plugs to a one-piece design it’s no longer a problem, though.

What’s even worse than this is when people go to Auto Zone and buy aftermarket letter badging and then spell their name out with it or write other meaningless things. Not only are the letters ghetto looking, but they’re always…

We (or rather my mom) had Explorers. A ‘90 then a ‘96, then a 2000 Expedition, and now a 2011 Explorer.

Seems like your parents are the lucky ones to be alive considering they imaginably sat in the front.

Absolutely! I’ve only seen 3 venomous snakes (2 Copperheads, 1 Cottonmouth) in the wild in my 24 years of living and I just leave them alone and life goes on. It’s sad to see people kill snakes, especially when they misidentify non-venomous snakes as venomous (even though neither should be killed). And here in GA it’s…

Yeah, I just don’t want people to get the idea that snakes will out of nowhere come chase you and try to attack you (some people do actually believe that - it’s a myth perpetuated with cottonmouths even though as far as I know it’s never been documented on video). Some people do confuse snakes trying to go to their…

This actually isn’t always accurate (though usually it is). Sometimes they will have round pupils. It’s best to go by multiple features. Actually the best thing to do is to learn what venomous snakes are in your area and get familiar with them. Most places don’t have too many different venomous species.

It is indeed a Southern Black Racer. Totally harmless. Pretty sure they don’t charge people, though. The line on Wikipedia has no citation. 

So my Explorer with 292 HP is too much? That’s just silly.

What’s wrong with looking in your side mirror before you open the door?

I just bought Mobil 1 from the other deal you posted and that was $11! I feel jipped! :P

I can’t say I’ve ever seen this before.
