Okay so these people aren't crazys, they're serious and they're raising money for charity right?
I had heard about this woman back in history (can't remember how far back) bathed in the blood of her servants. Of course she killed them first.
I didn't know bathing in blood attracted spirits.
Interesting thing you did today for a learning experience.

I hope they arent "real crazies"!

The lady you are referencing is Elizabeth Bathori who practiced vampirism on girls and young women. During the 1500--1600's she was allegedly convicted of killing more than 600 virgins in order to drink and bathe in their blood. When authorities found out she was walled in her castle untill she died in 1614.


It was pretty interesting!

We just got back from doing some shopping in Old Town. Not too crowded today, but it was a gorgeous day to be outside.

Default "I don't like spiders or snakes".....

so, is there such a snake as a 'Hopi' Rattler? There was one yesterday at the barn door, about 2 1/2 feet long, olive green in color. One of the fellas here at the center came upon it when feeding his horses, it was all coiled up and ready to 'go'... eeeeewwwwww... i hate snakes! I'll have to be very, very careful for the next 6 months or so, will watch my dogs when they go out, and just really try and watch every step I take. Did I say I hate snakes????

It WAS a Rattler.....the guy freaked out pretty much and took a couple of extra unnecessary shots. It just startled him because he just wasn't expecting to see it right by the feed barrel. Then again, where and when do you expect to see them, it's not like they give you much warning anytime. It was all coiled up, head up and tail up rattling, ready to strike. GAWDDDDDDD....!!!!!!

Oh duh, how did I miss it in your first post about it being a rattler before I asked if he was poisonous.
My brain is on the brink today.
