Got a healthy respect for puffys - one of the fastest strikes of all snakes and it likes a backward strike. Cytotoxic venom - attacks body tissue which dies and rots. You can easily loose a limb or at least part thereof from a bite. ;-)
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

One thing I always wondered was. How sharp would u say a snakes fangs are? Is it like a injection needle, or a scalpel? Is it that sharp that if it grazes you, you will suffer some serious consequences?
