be careful..

 Today, June 2, according to my west coast brother, is "Yell 'Fudge' at the Cobras in North America Day."  Obviously I needed to do a little research.  Observing this day is based on the belief that cobras are repelled by the word 'fudge.'  No information about how cobras feel about actual fudge.  I'm guessing that, if they had ever tasted my spouse's excellent fudge (an old family recipe handed down from his mother)  they would be clustered in droves in our back yard. 

As a general rule, I would say don't feed fudge to cobras.

To observe the day properly, you should have gone outside at noon, faced south and shouted 'FUDGE' several times loudly, therefore doing your part to keep cobras away.  It evidently works because there are no wild cobras in North America.  

If you missed your opportunity today, mark your calendar for June 2, 2026.  We can't be too careful.
