Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

There's one worse than the king cobra. It's called the Northern Philippine cobra - the deadliest cobra in the world and the third deadliest out of all species of snakes. Its venom will kill you in 30 minutes if it goes untreated.
Reverting back to pythons. I have actually seen one, I tell a lie - the one in Bohol called Prony (now deceased) that was an attraction on the inland tour.
They tried to get me to hold it around my neck too

I used to do quite a lot of hiking and running when I was based in HK I remember seeing one cobra on the island and several up in the new territories and saw one wild one in india.

We often came across spitting cobra's in our garden when we lived in Botswana, the dogs fortunately gave us a heads up by barking like crazy and jumping around them, on with the shades hit them with a spade and throw them over the wall and wait for an eagle to come and pick them up....

Below:
The King Cobra, the world's largest venomous snake (up to 15ft), distributed around the Phils .
Plus, the sandy to brown coloured 'standard issue' venomous Cobra... very common throughout the Phils, reaching 6-10ft as adults.
Watch where you're walking, especially in the provinces, and especially at night.
A lot of people don't realise that there are also both Freshwater and (HUGE) Saltwater Crocs. So be careful where you're dipping your toes too.

He is an author and herpetology lecturer now I think?He was once bitten by a king cobra and survived thanks to the prompt medical actions of one of his colleagues.

Yes, a dangerous occupation that finished off poor old Steve Irwin. :(
