Maybe she should have stomped the spider instead.

She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.

Are poisonous snakes really indigenous to Tennessee? I think it’s time to change my vacation plans!

These beaty-pageant contestants aren’t very smart. There are easier ways to get one’s name in the papers. ;)

She’s walking in heels with her foot like that? It must have barely nicked her or it had recently used it vemon on something else. I’ve seen whole legs swell up like watermelons for days after a rattlesnake bite.

I was spinning off the other Beauty Contest girl a few days ago who was asked why one-fifth of Americans can’t locate the U.S. on a map, and who somehow managed to center her answer on South Africa.

When I was 6 I attended a birthday party in the backyard of one of our neighbors in El Paso. While playing in the yard in the early evening a little girl the same age stepped on a rattler, and it was horrible to watch. Her leg turned as blue as my jeans, and swelled unbelieveably. As long ago as that was I still remember it vividly. The little girl did recover but was badly scarred from the bite.

And here I thought that beauty queen contestants were the pinnacle of American intellectualism :<)

Beside the point observation: Isn’t the mere existence of a “Mrs. America” pageant more than a little strange? There doesn’t seem to be much point beyond the obvious “milf” connotations.

The spider was in cahoots with the snake. It was a classic bait and switch variant called the scare and rattle scam.
