Somewhere in the universe, there may or may not exist a "database" of historical photos, which may or may not be connected to Jean Devanny in a way I'm not at liberty to discuss.
This database may or may not contain the following description concerning a blurry photograph of a man holding a snake:
"This venomous 7 horse power diesel engined man eating morning after the night before snake killed ten men and ate 29 dogs before Patem Alley with his usual courageous determination captured it alive after spending 9 sleepless weeks tracking the monster to its lair in the heart of the merciless hot jungle"
This description may or may not be a complete fabrication by someone who may or may not have been testing to see if anyone was ever actually going to read the data put into the database - this being pure conjecture as it seems to have taken several years for someone to read that particular entry (which may or may not exist), and the identity of whoever originally entered it (who also may or may not exist) is lost in the sands of time.
It's flippin' hilarious, though. Slightly misleading, but flippin' hilarious.
I can't help but think Jean would have approved.
