We get hog nosed snakes too, though their puff up display once had an uncle of mine convinced they were cobras. yeah-no I love those snakes, and apparently I used to play with them all the time when they were everywhere as a child though I don't remember.

That's weird, never would have guessed they were only in one half of Kansas. So you could sorta group me with those people, but then I've never lived or even visited there.
