Great Grandad's not-so-long-lost Luger

Being from Michigan, I don't know much about snakes. But when I was in Kentucky, the sport for kids was to grab a black snake by the tail and snap its head off. But a cotton mounth snake looks very much like a black snake and is considerably faster. So many a Kentucky kid has learned the hard way to look before grabbing. I don't bother to look, I just run.
