Odd Stuff (Part 5)

I hear you, but what people ‘know’ in general might not be accurate, especially as it pertains to a particular hospital. I was postulating on an understandable reason why the incident happened, not saying it’s always the correct course of action.

Hopefully this story can be used to get the real info out there, that when it comes to snakes at least, they don’t need to be brought in to be identified.

The usual guidelines in Australia are different. Snakes and spiders should not be captured, medical services are able to identify the necessary information, getting bitten/stung again is best avoided.

It’s mostly about snakes. And how it is always better not to be bitten in the first place.

The experience of leaving Australia and going to New Zealand is like leaving the U.S. and going to, say, Germany: there’s a dawning realization that you’re not taking your life in your hands every day. We swam amongst jellyfish that can kill you in 4 minutes, so snakes are just par for the course there!

There are cruises that circumnavigate Australia and New Zealand, and your comment is making me wonder how much can be seen from the deck, like this:

Re: Phish in the Sphere

East Coast here, I’ve had three people absolutely rave about the show to me in the past four or five days.

It made an impression. Conversely I hardly heard about U2’s performance there from people. The press certainly but not “people”.
