    Now, this is your worst nightmare.

    It's an 8' snake holed up in a house in Toronto.

    In just 10 days, the slippery reptile has forced an evacuation of the building, the basement ceiling to be ripped out, and a request for antivenom -- just in case -- from officials in New York. ......"I didn't know what kind of snake it was," Belanger recalled. "I actually attempted to catch the thing with a snare and then it puffed up and flared like a cobra. I said, 'Guys, we've got a problem here.'"

    Indeed, "all hell broke loose" the following day as the house was surrounded by emergency vehicles and a few police officers who carried weapons, Belanger said.

    Put some Tim's outside the house, that'll draw the snake out.
    I hear snakes love TimBits.
