A Young Honeymoon Couple

A young honeymoon couple were touring southern Florida and

happened to stop at one of the rattlesnake farms along the

road. After seeing the sights, they engaged in small talk

with the man that handled the snakes. “Gosh!” exclaimed

the new bride. “You certainly have a dangerous job.

Don’t you ever get bitten by the snakes?” “Yes, on

rare occasions,” answered the handler. “Well,” she

continued, “just what do you do when you’re bitten by a

snake?” “I always carry a razor-sharp knife in my

pocket, and as soon as I am bitten, I make deep criss-cross

marks across the fang entry and then s*ck the poison from

the wound.” “What, uh… what would happen if you were

to accidentally sit on a rattler?” persisted the woman.

“Ma’am,” answered the snake handler, “that will be

the day I learn who my real friends are.”
