Snakes In An Apartment

I am always willing to abuse the Snakes On or Snakes In title from the Snakes On A Plane movie. I love that title and is really appropriate when you have one of these stories. In New York this morning, and more specifically in the Bronx, a woman was wandering through her apartment. An apartment mind you when all of a sudden a four foot long snake slithered by. Are you f**king kidding me? I would have dropped dead right there. Don't think so? Last night I had some kind of nightmare and woke up with a jolt. I could feel my arteries. I also decided that when people die of a heart attack during the night that is what happens.

Anyway, the woman who has three kids seems to have handled this much better than I would have. She rounded up her kids and called 911. No doubt she was probably hung up on 3 or 4 times until someone believed her story. Animal Control came and removed the snake and they were going to take it somewhere to determine if it was venomous. OK, stop right there. They were going to determine if it was venomous? That means it wasn't a python or boa or something like that. The Animal Control people didn't know? That is scary. What if they tell her oh, yeah it was some kind of snake that kills you in three seconds if it bites you. Do you think she is going to be able to sleep for a week? No way. Not a chance. That has to be the biggest shock in the world.

No one has figured out how the snake got in the apartment. Yeah, that is great news. Probably more where they came from.
