SNAKES!?!

Snakes WOULD have a lot of advantages over boxcutters..

1) Snakes would not be detected by airport security cameras

2) Snakes would not be sniffed out by bomb-sniffing dogs

3) Few people would try to take your snake away from you on the plane, whereas the whole plane would empty into your seat if you started waving a boxcutter

4) Unless Samuel L. Jackson is on your plane, snakes would be pretty much indestructible

I was disappointed that the movie didn't have a cameo of Harrison Ford sitting in an airplane seat saying "Snakes... why does it always have to be snakes?"

Was going to write something about my nipples exploding, but decided against it.
I think the filmmakers want to get scary things all in one movie so a hovercraft full of eels works for me.

Hate to say it, but people DO smuggle snakes onto airplanes, and sometimes they get caught. Sorry about this story's caption. I don't write 'em.

[edit] There's not much else funny about the story. Snakes don't deserve this kind of treatment.
