I was a member of the Society back when they met in the Planetarium.In fact,the reason I had to stop being a member was because they shut down the planetarium and I couldn't get to where they moved their meetings.

I had a pair of Ball Pythons that I used to perform snake dances with, one of whom as of 11-11-11 passed into the Invisible., leaving his erstwhile dance partners bereft.

Cobras have always been dear to my heart, ever since I saw the uraeus on the treasures of King Tut-ankh-Amen back when I was six or seven.Other people collect images of frogs or kittens or puppies, I collect those of cobras.

My proudest acquisition in this regard was (and still is) a pair of Indian brass cobra candleholders.

My idol is the legendary Grace, who befriended many cobras, and whose last name escapes me. I do recall that she at last died from the bite of a cobra that had a pattern on its hood resembling the letter G.

Hello and th_sign00161.gif to our zoo. Sorry for your lose of our Ball python. We would love to see pictures of them. Cobras are true amazing snakes.

Welcome! You seem quite articulate, background in literature?

I guess you could say that. I am one of those people who can truly be called "well-read". However I am a bit of a geek, and my particular interests are natural history, Freemasonry and the Knights Templar, with a smattering of Eastern philosophy.
