NO! I said the FEATHERED boa!
I look at these fashion photos, and I’d like to think somebody is shooting that prequel to Snakes on a Plane, the long-rumored Snakes on a Runway.
But sadly, I know better. Truth is, the cultural gulch between fashion designers and regular people is now so wide that somebody on the other side thinks there is a market for finery to wear to those “You and your snakes are invited…” parties we keep reading about.
“It’s drizzling, honey, turn on the windshield vipers!” Here’s a slideshow.

If a pit viper were cross-bred with a boa, would its toxic bite be passed or would it be non-toxic like the constrictor? And, how would its owner first know?
Is that a snake or … oh, never mind.
