I went out to my mailbox yesterday and thought I saw a big slab of mud in my yard. but at a closer look I saw it was a big snapping turtle. I said, "Hi turtle" to him and he turned his head towards me and sighed, "eeehhhh" in a disinterested unimpressed way, like he was a celebrity and I was asking for an autograph. I went into the house and he turned and went back into the ditch.
