FJust got the funniest call from my friend

[HEyHEY]

He works at a newspaper in another small town up the way. HE called to tell me he was gonna be late because he has to go take a picture of a snake for it's birthday.

"I can't sink any lower." - He said.

[flamingyouth]

1. No, probably not lower than a snake's, um

belly. (sorry, couldn't resist)

All hail small-town journalism! :D

[HEyHEY]

2. yeah, no doubt

Well, he's on deck for a gig in T.O. - hopefully he gets it

[flamingyouth]

3. I'll cross my fingers for him

That would be very cool.

[HEyHEY]

4. especially for him

It's at an Computer mag and he's a big geek. So he'd fit in

[flamingyouth]

5. Is Toronto a computer geek town?

Been about 10 years since I've been there. Me, I prefer Montreal, but that probably doesn't surprise you. ;)

[HEyHEY]

6. I'm not sure if it is

It's just where that mag is based.

Yeah, anyone with red blood prefers montreal!

[flamingyouth]

7. I've got to get back to Montreal some day

I had some wild times there back in my younger years. :D

9. Well, of course for his next assignment he may have to take a picture

of whale's shit, and that's at the bottom of the ocean.

[HEyHEY]

10. Hey, I think shit like this is abusing your employees

I know if there's a major news story - call them up and get them to go. But don't call them on the weekend to take a pic of a snake on it's birthday.

8. The last line makes this story. n/t
