If your area doesn't have the privilege of having goat-head thorns don't gloat to quickly. I recall Stapfam telling about dreading the spring in England, as the folks are out cutting their grass and trimming hedges and such. The roads are full of thorns that will flat a tire (or Tyre in their case,) in a London minute, when this is going on.

Here in the Gulf Southeast its the ever present sand spurs, not as large as the infamous brethren goat-heads, but capable anyhow.

Every place has its tire eating snakes waiting to make you day complete.
