Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Woman finds snake in bag of broccoli florets

Mum Tina Cosby was preparing tea for her family when she discovered the foot-long snake among the greens she had bought from a Tesco store in Essex.

She said: "I was hysterical. I'm not a lover of spiders so a snake in the kitchen...

"I was also a bit nervous because I thought it might be poisonous".

The European smooth snake had survived a trip in an aeroplane hold and a night in the Cosby's fridge and he was pretty chilly when he was taken to see vet Nigel Spraule.

Tesco has apologised and given the Cosbys a £50 voucher.

We should be an IKEA affiliate.

Have we made any $$ off the affiliates, btw?

A Snake in the Kitchen would be a great name for a children's book! And this

I'm not a lover of spiders so a snake in the kitchen...
has a wonderful Tori Amos-meets-Hillaire Billoc feel. I know what she means, but that ellipsis is so intriguing.

Or maybe I need more coffee.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I have nothing to do today. Why no more IKEA, Tom? I need to buy furniture but feel sick at prices that are above IKEA's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Have we made any $$ off the affiliates, btw?

Yeah, totally. We get... dozens? of dollars from Amazon per quarter.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Heh. Trudy and Vortex, I was thinking the same. Then I got a vision of SLJ fighting snakes in the produse aisle.

ION, last night I had a dream set in my office. In my dream, I tore a page off the Buffista Word-a-Day Calendar.

I want one!
