Geez, I'm staying in Michigan!!!! We ain't got no snakes here except for a few politicians. While I was in Kentucky for a couple of years working for Chrysler, the guys there told me that it was great sport to grab a black snake by the tail and whip its head off. Just make sure that it is a slow moving black snake and not a faster cotton mouth. I had to be careful during the rainy season in Kentucky. Lots of flooded areas there and the snakes tend to crawl on peoples pourches until the water goes away.
When I was in Oklahoma in the army, I saw a big snake slither out from under a log in a creek. I couldn't tell what it was because I was looking over my shoulders and running like hell. Actually, I didn't waste time looking over my shoulders. But this did break me of my habit of jogging during the early evening.
