plenty of other snakes and gators and all manner of swamp beastie. Actually, I've seen plenty of snakes in the wild that I couldn't identify - who's to say one of 'em wasn't a Burmese python?

I used to have a friend that had a python of some type big enough to cover the floor of the closet he lived in.

On the edge of the Everglades. Head the size of a football and maybe 8 or 9 feet long. Had a little boy with me so we beat feet out of there.
