    Hey, Who's The New Guy?????

    Giant snake scares factory workers

    A snake measuring more than 19 foot long and weighing almost 16 stone was found inside a factory in Brazil.

    Terrified employees fled the sugar and alcohol plant in Sertaozinho.

    Firemen were called and took the giant anaconda snake - measuring six metres and weighing 100 kilos - to a nature reserve.

    Firefighter Helder Aparecido Salgado told Prensa online: "It wasn't very hard to capture the snake because it was so fat it had difficulty moving."

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    What the worker's were not told is that the snake was part of the new incentive package....

    One stone is equal to 14 pounds I believe. It is a common measurement used at least in Britain.... haven't you ever seen Bridget Jone's diary?

    I've seen and read both. I guess I didn't see the equivalent anywhere.

    Scary!! I can't image seeing a snake that big anywhere near me!!
