Rattlesnakes

Hi All!
Last nite I watched Salems Lot on TV, horror flick with vampires. Their fangs were more narrow than alot of other portrails I've seen. Guess that's why I dreamt of rattlers.
I know I felt something sharp on the back of my right calf and thought I'd been bitten. When I turned to look it was either a snake with its head blown off, or an electric cord with exposed wires which had poked me. Maybe the snake had exposed wires?
All I know is I wasn't bitten. Whew! There was a guy in my dream.
He and I both had rifles to shoot the snakes with. Seems like we
were competeing [shades of Annie Oakly]. Thats all I can recall
