Great looking snake. I am guessing your daughter got her looks from her mother. LOL Just Kidding.

Moses is a big boy! Your daughter is pretty...I second the good looks from mom thing...lol
And her shirt is way cool! If it is size XL...does she want to sell it?...lol
Great Pic!!

Both your kids are beautiful DZ. My dad took a line from a movie to tell boys: "Hey, I've got a shovel and a shotgun in my trunk. I doubt anyone would miss you". LOL! He always said that but only when he knew they were not taking him seriously. LOL!!!

Hugs!

damn... well, im 15 also.... lol, maby you could slip her my #. well, i wont post it on here, beacuse you will hunt me down, and thats jsut not fun. lol J/K

anyways, nice burm, pretty daughter.

CaptainHook2 Nov 07, 2004 06:20 PM

Thanx all! She got her shirt from a boy she went out with for 18 months. They broke up this past valentines day and he still worships the ground she walks on. Thing is she knows it. You think I'm in trouble with this photo, you should see her done up. I also have a 14 YO. Here's a pic of her with our dog Pivo just 1 week before we had to put him down. Maybe the shotgun is for me, it would be easier! J/K

I made the photo size really small so none of you verts could blow it up and be creepy! LOL

Jeez, you are in the same boat as me....two daughters a year apart!...but mine are a bit younger but they are going to be beautiful ladies like your's. Any pointers on dealing with boyfriends; I am seriously thinking of the monestary for them! Looks like you and your wife have some real good "bloodlines". Rob

Carmichael Nov 08, 2004 01:54 PM

I've got two daughters who are 11 and 12 so my day is coming very soon (your daughter is going to be a real heartbreaker). I, too, have contemplated how I am going to deal with the boyfriend issue....I was thinking of introducing them to the king cobra or mamba but a big burm will do the trick too (I can't shoot so a gun would only end up being pointed at me by accident). Thanks for sharing, R

A burm needs to grab hold while the King Cobra just needs to bite. Most people wouldn't understand the mamba (unless they've seen Kill Bill!) I would just warn them not to get to close and that they need to respect the snakes house. They are the intruder and if they get bit, they were warned. Then walk around the house with it at your leisure. You gotta keep a straight face though so they can't tell if your serious or not. Then again, if you are serious, it's geniune. I figure it's my job to hate the boyfriend and I make sure they hear this on the first visit. That is genuine! Hear that Pythons&Boas?!?!?!!?

Has anyone noticed this is the longest thread in a while????
LOL!!

Pythons_N_Boas Nov 10, 2004 02:13 AM

i will NEVER let my doughters date. lol boys are NO good... most guys are really only out for 1 thing... not me ofcourse... lol but no, my doughters will never date... and i say just show them the pythons, and tell him the snakes are hungry. lol

CaptainHook2 Nov 10, 2004 10:44 PM

Jessie is the boy she was dating, and likewise got the shirt from. The first time he ever stepped foot into my house I had invited a group of co-workers over for a cookout. We are all Air Force Security Forces members. These guys grilled this poor kid and had him in handcuffs before long. He still stuck around for 18 months and still comes over now.

If you really want to screw with his head, especially if he's lied or done something you didn't want him to, don't do anything! Just stare at him with "I'm going to kill you" on your mind but never say it! Then say "I'm going (place of your choice) I suggest you stay here! Then go there. I had this one boy trying to appologize for a week, then my daughter broke up with him. I've always told me kids if some boy comes around and acts a fool, expect I will put a Smith & Wesson in his mouth and escort him out of the door.

lol... i would hate to be that kid... lmao

hey, how long is your burm? how old is he?

CaptainHook2 Nov 11, 2004 02:11 PM

I have not had him since birth so I'm not sure but I was told he's rouhgly 3 years old. I'm reall not positive he's a he but his spurs protrude quite well.

Last I measured him was about 6 months ago and he was 8'11". At his growth rate I expect him to be over 9' but not by much. I do know he weighs in at 35.2 pounds (recent vet visit).

CaptainHook2 Nov 10, 2004 10:36 PM
