Redtail under car dashboard

Redtail under car dashboard

Postby Phunk » Thu Feb 03, 2011 6:40 pm

I received this e-mail today.
The subject read "Client hears hissing in new car" But we know that subject line is just sensationalized to catch the reader's attention.
I think the car's owner was transporting the Boa when it escaped and went under the dash and because the car was new, he didn't want to damage the dash so he drove to the dealer so they could remove the snake.

Luckily for him, it seems the techi is not afraid of snakes...

I bet that's something they don't see every day!
One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

When I was a youngster my small Burmese python got loose in the car and dissapeared into the dashboard. My mom drove to the nearest service station and asked them to remove the dashboard (without telling the "werkers" what the problem was).

We all rolled on the floor laughing when the two of them jumped out of the car and ran for their lives when the dashboard eventually came off :-)
