> [@shadowfax](#): > > for April Fools I figured out exactly how to position the rubber snake on the ceiling fan in their bedroom so it would fly at his face when he flipped the switch… Oh boy, that was a terrible terrible thing to do. I can tell you are still haunted by the memory. I remember well about 1958 there was a garder snake in our gravel driveway and my mom ran down the driveway in shear terror screaming. ---

I’m afraid I don’t know what you’re getting at . . . Are you implying we should revive ALL dead threads? There have been PLENTY of instances where doing so served absolutely no useful purpose ---

I was only observing that some people are bothered by things that others are not. I’m confident that there are things that upset me which 99% of people could not care less about. The only time I am bothered by a revived dead thread is when I forget to check the date and answer an OP who probably no longer owns the vehicle. Even then I am only bothered that I forgot to check and feel like an idiot. I am a member of an unrelated forum which enforces a 1 year limit. If the Car Talk Community powers that be did something like that it would not bother me at all. ---

One thing’s clear . . . after 7 years There’s no way the snake is still in the car Maybe OP doesn’t even have the car anymore Therefore, I think it wasn’t useful to revive the discussion ---

7 YEARS LATER Nostalgicmusic 2d Well i can give you some “expert” advise here lol. This actually happened to me. I went out to our carport (in northern AZ) and there was a bullsnake by my car. It literally had a hissy fit and tried to chase me. I grabbed a That’s a partial cut and paste I don’t mean to sound offensive, but you ARE the one that revived a 7 year old discussion I realize it’s sometimes not easy to see that it happened . . . but it did [Previous page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/snake-in-car/63673.md?page=2)
