well 'Steve Irwin' you werent holding a python, its a venomous snake, rear-fanged and likely mildly venomous but im bout 99% sure not a python unless you found either a new species or thats the weirdest coloration of retic ive ever seen as they are the only known python in the PI's.....not sure which species but its a Boiga of some sort im pretty sure....most are pretty harmless but a hell of alot have no study done on their venom

no boas over there....what the locals call it dont matter....the fangs would have been a slightly bigger tooth back past the eyes in the mouth....while im not up on all Asian snakes ild put $20 on it being a Boiga of some sort....lots of them are easy to handle, some are nasty...

Can't their training cycle drives our leave time. I lose a fair amount of money when I go on leave, enough that it hurts. Especially if I go to the states for more than 14 days. I go more than 18 my paycheck becomes taxable. That's in a calendar year.

So if you are in the States for 19 days in a calendar year,your whole years pay becomes taxable?
