You crack me up, Howard. A real child of the 60's. As for the image, an excellent look at the way a snake's jaw "dislocates" to accomodate such large bites.

I never knew much at all about Jim Morrison. Back then, if I listened to music at all, it was classical, which I was brought up with.

I wish I could see the frog/toad a little better... laugh
