BERIGAN Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Man, if I had a nickle for every time this happened to me.... Man Crashes Car After Snake Attacks Him NAPLES, Fla. — A man crashed his car after a pet snake he had wrapped around his neck began attacking him, authorities said. Witnesses reported that Courtland Page Johnson, 30, of East Naples, was driving erratically and crashed his PT Cruiser into several barricades about 9 p.m. Tuesday. He got out of his car, wrestled with the snake and then drove off, reports said. When authorities caught up with Johnson at his home, he told them he crashed into another car that had stopped short in front of him. After questioning, Johnson admitted he panicked when his snake bit him. He had cuts and freshly dried blood on his body, but did not need medical attention, reports said. Johnson was charged with leaving the scene of a crash. http://www.ajc.com/news/content/shared-gen...ake_Attack.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDK Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Johnson was charged with leaving the scene of a crash. It could have been worse. He could have been charged with playing with his snake while operating a motor vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert J Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 I may be a naive Canadian - but so far the three bizarre news stories in today's posts all originate out of Florida. What the? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida is a magnet for crazies...and home-grows a lot of crazies, too. It's kind of the California of the East Coast in that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 After questioning, Johnson admitted he panicked when his snake bit him. What a pansy. Doesn't he know that women don't like to date wusses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catesta Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 (edited) After questioning, Johnson admitted he panicked when his snake bit him. What a pansy. Doesn't he know that women don't like to date wusses? I thought being scared of snakes didn't count. I mean we're all afraid of snakes, right? If it was me I would have run the damn thing over until it was part of the asphalt. Of course if it was me I would not have had a snake in the car to begin with, let alone warpped around my friggin' neck.

JSngry Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 I'm suspicious of any story that combines the words "snake" and "Johnson". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
