An Escape From Certain Death

[klunker]

  I was detecting a steep narrow gulch with a vertical wall on one side and thick viscous thorn bushes on the other when a red eyed golden fanged rattle snake slithered out from a crevasse right at the level of my jugular vein. As the snake coiled back to deliver my slow painful death, I leaped straight up about 5', did a 360 degree pirouette, an delivered a stunning, precise, back hand blow with my GPZ7000 light saber and bonked the ol' snake right on the noggin. The snake crawled back into his hole in humiliated defeat and I continued detecting. I then found one of golden fangs that I had dislodged during the brief battle for my life.

  There my be one or two of you that question the truth of parts of my story so I have retained the services of Sourdough Scott to present photographic proof, should it become necessary.

That is the nugget you found that made you make up the story, right?

The 'poison' got into his system anyway.  I wish we had something to scale to know how big that snake was!

I am glad you are OK Klunker. Those gold fangs can destroy lives leaving permanent cases of gold fever.

Glad you're OK, but how is the ZED?
