"Conway, old buddy! Where have you been? I haven't seen you around in a while."
"George, old friend, I've been hanging with my buddies near Lake Butler. Lots of dead deer on the roadsides. Why What's up?"
"Well, it seems like that woman in Fort White got a big scare yesterday. I heard she walked to her car and onto her back deck when she spied a coral snake. Of course she sang that little rhyme Red on yellow, kill a fellow... And then she freaked out. You know jumping up and down and shrieking at the tops of her lungs."
"Do tell, George. Go on. What happened next?"
"Conway, old buddy. She called that man in the back house and he grabbed a shovel to chop that coral snake into pieces. Of course that woman couldn't watch the chopping, so she went back in her own house, closed her eyes and covered her ears."
"George! Get to the point, I'm starving here! Does that mean there might be two halves of a snake in that woman's yard?"
"Yeah! I thought..."
"Get back here, Conway! I thought we could each have half a snake! YOU DO THIS TO ME EVERY TIME I GIVE YOU A HEADS-UP! YOU SORRY FRIEND!"
