If there would be any way I could help you transition back to the other house, just let me know; I have a flatbed truck and am fairly handy with hammer and nails. I am serious.
I guess whether or not there is such a thing as a "good" snake depends on several things, but as far as I am concerned, they all; every one of them, will hurt you; they either can bite you or either they will scare the ____ out of you. My response is if you like'em that's OK but I terminate them...
