Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Man bites snake

Drunk Indian man bitten by snake retaliates by biting back, killing it
A drunk man in India exacted his revenge on a snake that bit him by biting it back and chewing it into pieces.
The man, Raj Kumar was relaxing at home with a drink Sunday when a snake slithered into his house in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh and bit him, said his father, according to Reuters.
The man's father said that his son was drunk when he bit the reptile.
“A snake bit him. So, in turn, he bit it and chewed it into pieces,” said the father, Babu Ram.
Kumar was hospitalized in serious condition.
“This is definitely weird,” said Raj Kumar’s doctor, N.P. Singh, according to Reuters.
“I’ve seen people coming in with snakebites, but never somebody who bit a snake and then brought it with him in a bag.”
Kumar was bitten by a non-venomous rat snake.
The snake was cremated, according to local media.
