Completely unrelated, a story's floating around the office about...

OK, so, this lady had a boa constrictor as a pet, and as pet-owners seem to
be wont to do she had the snake sleep with her. After a time, the lady
noticed that the snake started acting weird; it stopped eating and sometimes
in the middle of the night it would drop to the floor and just stretch out.
Concerned, she took the snake to the vet and explained the situation. After
looking up some information on boas, the doctor told the lady she had to put
the snake down: it was preparring to eat her.

If this were an email, I'd suggest you check it out on Snopes (I can't get
there at work), but I still think I'm gonna have nightmares for a week.

Yup, I think I saw this one debunked! Thank goodness.

I know you can't look while at work. The story is false.
