Got another rattlesnake in my place today, just after doing a little $20 job for a neighbor. Only about 2 feet long, not much meat, and I think it bit itself while I was trying to kill it; might be poisonous! I'll eat it anyway.

I hit it twice with my crossbow, then pinned it down with a yucca stalk, as usual, while I cut its head off. Except that I gave it a chance to bite itself this time, by pinning it too far from its head, it's becoming almost routine. Now I've got steaks cooking, rabbit in the neighbor's fridge, and snake ready to fry. What a feast! At least the rabbit and snake are organic meats, too, or as close to organic as anything can be after 100 years or so of spreading toxins all over the fucking planet.
