You learn something new everyday. Today I went to the National Zoo and learned the following --

1. Cheetahs don't mind if biologists take pictures of them during the romantic afterglow. In fact, at least two of them turn to the camera and smile.
2. Zookeepers will not give you cute baby animals out of the small mammal house no matter how many firstborn children you offer them.
3. I do not speak Parseltongue, and spending fifteen straight minutes staring at snakes in the reptile house will not change that.
4. There is no five-second rule in the monkey world.

The Brazilian boa scene was my very favorite scene in SS when I first read it! I, too, would spend minutes begging the snakes to talk to me, but alas nothing came of it. Maybe they were just sulky, or maybe Utah snakes just don't talk.

I thought I had hit the spot where I was reading your for a second time, but then realized you were quoted in [livejournal.com profile] metaquotes
