Not good luck...seems its lucky if the snake crosses in front of you. I have been in cars previously who stop to let the snake cross

I was in a taxi today at Ramkhamhaeng and we ran over and killed a snake.

Is this lucky or not?

Should we be visiting the temple tomorrow?

We?

Be careful, the taxi driver might think you are inviting him on some sort of a religious date...

He said it was lucky....but I have my doubts....

I didnt think the traffic on Ram ever moved fast enough to run over and kill a snake.

Anyway you should have been on a leisurely cruise on the San Saeb.

It might have made it....but there was definitely a bit of a crunching feeling.....maybe its just a foot shorter?

A bit like the kid's rhyme... "My cousin Billy with a six-foot willy"?? whistling.gif

Killing a snake with a car is so passé. What you never need to do apparently, is kill a snake inside your house. A good friend of mine, ex- Rhodesian army and thus quite nifty with the panga, lopped the head of a cobra in the lounge at his home about 30-odd years ago. His wife and MIL were apopleptic and assured him that the curse was truly upon them. I am not sure if the curse has expired yet or if he is still married.

I've seen someone eat the the still pumping heart of a dead snake and swallow it whole with some saki.....

He said it's the nearest a man can get to feeling pregnant with a heart beating in his belly.

He had the sweats for a few days after mind.

Most thais consider it good luck....a free meal.

Last time I ran over a snake the g/f's brother jumped on his m/c and sped off down the road to collect it. He sold the gonads for a few 100 Baht and ate the rest. Seems the snakes gonads are good for virility.

Good luck? It was for him.

Once I ran over a snake and killed it and the dirty looks that I received from Thais made me feel like I was a criminal!

That may have been because you crushed it that bad that it wasn't eatable anymore.

I got that look once for wasting food. Perhaps they are one and the same.

You could be onto something here, kill any snake you can find, then try to make out numbers by the way the dead snake lays on the ground, and then sell the lottery tips to to other snake ghost believers. thumbsup.gif

I find that hard to believe. Where I live, Thais kill snakes on sight.

Perhaps it was because they had been looking forward to eating it, and it was no longer edible after you squashed it.
