Many of us in the radio business remember WKRP fondly because we have
all encountered characters like those in the show. The turkey drop
incident ("Turkeys Away") was modeled on one that really happened,
albeit not in Cincinnati.
Oddly, there is actually a WKRQ in Cincinnati, just one letter of the
alphabet removed from WKRP. There is also a WKRC. Neither has anything
to do with the show.

Hmm, I wonder what species that is. What is called a "brown snake" here
in the east is Storeria dekayi, a little snake not more than ten or
fifteen inches long. I don't think I've ever encountered one, although I
have seen its relative, S. occipitomaculata, the red bellied snake.

The only rattlesnake here is the timber rattler, Crotalus horridus. It's
endangered in Massachusetts and is only found in a couple of places;
oddly, one of them is the Blue Hills Reservation, just outside Boston.
There are also copperheads in the reservation; occasionally one finds
its way into the neighboring Granite Links golf course. They too are
classified as endangered in MA.
Howie Carr, a local right-wing talk show host, ranted on the radio a few
years ago against a proposal to preserve an island in the Quabban
Reservoir in central Massachusetts as a rattlesnake habitat. He want on
and on about endangering neighborhood children and the like, clearly
unaware that there were rattlesnakes living much closer to civilization
and no one had ever had a problem with them.
The Quabban is greater Boston's principal water supply. When it was
created in the 1930s, four towns were deliberately flooded. They were
Enfield, Prescott, Dana, and Greenwich ("green-witch"). The towns were
formally dissolved and their residents moved elsewhere.

I have long been fascinated by snakes. How a limbless terrestrial
predator could ever evolve, let alone flourish, boggles the mind. The
Boidae -- boas and pythons -- have remnants of a pelvis and little spurs
that are vestiges of hind legs.
