There's no dashboard warning light for this...



BERLIN (Reuters) - A German car rental clerk had to take apart the interior of a removals van to take out an eight-foot boa constrictor that had escaped from a cloth sack on the passenger seat and slithered behind the dashboard.



Thomas Weber, a rental clerk in the state of Thuringia, told Bild newspaper Friday the snake's owner had brought the van back seeking help for his unusual problem. Weber then took the dashboard apart and the owner slowly pulled the giant snake out.



"The snake was completely content in there and didn't want to come out," said Weber. "Evidently, he liked the warm and cozy feeling near the engine."


Betcha thought the rental car business was a piece of cake... although if I lost an eight-foot boa constrictor in my car, I'd probably call them to come pick it up... [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
