The Noodle Man

Had to laugh as we were leaving the noodle house (quite fat 'n' happy, thankyouverymuch). Just inside the entry is this full sized statue of a Chinese man, side by side with an aquarium sporting a (fake) boa constrictor. Now, since my days in Mr. Hubbard's 11th grade biology class where we were "asked" to allow his boa, Passion Flower, to crawl over our shoulders, I've been a bit squeamish about the creatures.

Unless, of course, they're in purse or boot form, but that's another conversation entirely.

Holly and I got the giggles. Got out the camera. Next thing you know, it's me, Mr. Chin, and the snake. Gotta love it.
