Dead Snake Omen

Top of the morning to ya Techriders. We only have two more days of listening to all the media blah,blah,blah, about the FOMC, which starts tomorrow and ends on Wednesday. Then we will have the news and the market will rally or get clocked.
I don't know what kind of omen it is but I ran over a snake with the lawn mower yesterday. I think a dead snake means a rally.
Anyway, I jumped about as far as Jed did the other day when I snuck up on him. I wasn't on the tractor but using the push mower on a tight spot near my drive way. Well I was pushing along and the mower throws a slightly diced snake on my boots, damn I hate snakes when they just scare the crap out of you like that.
Well then I was really bumming out. I do like snakes (even though they often scare the crap out of me) as snakes are like frogs, they let you know how healthy the environment is. Snakes are very helpful and eat everything from insects to other snakes.
This snake sure had some bum luck. The snake had stuck his head up just high enough for a trim so the rest of him was in great shape, when it showed up on my boots.
It doesn't take long in the mountains for something to go right back into the food chain. I put the dead snake in my drive way and with in minutes two crows were having dinner.
Anyway I felt bad about giving the snake the trim (a little off the top of his head) but it made the crows happy. 909S BLUE
