"This is my kind of luck!!!

Broken Fan Belt (make sure you see the pics at the bottom)
A guy in St. Louis was driving to work on Hwy ! 144 when he heard a "pop" !
He thought it sounded like a flat tire, although his ride wasn't affected.
After pulling over, checking the tires and f inding them intact, he opened the hood to look at the motor. Before the hood was all the way open he jumped back in shock and knocked his head on the partially opened hood, unable to believe what his eyes were seeing! Nobody was going to believe this! You sure wouldn't have either!
Fortunately for him, a coworker with a camera recognized him along side the road and stopped to see if he could help.
Check out the photos to witness for yourself the source of his amazement. Now, this has to be right up there at the top of the list of unusual but verified reasons I was late for work! !!

Heres the photos

Poor thing

In case anyone else can't see the picture:

"In the beginning Bob created the Ball Python market. And the market was without morph, and wild traits were upon the industry. And Bob said, Let there be morph, and there was morph. And Bob saw the morph, that it was good; and Bob divided the morph from the wild trait. And Bob called the morph Albino, and the wild trait Normal. And the Albino and the Heterozygous Albino were the first investment.

Those pictures have been in circulation for a while. It had to be a painful and horrible way to die... poor thing didn't stand a chance... he probably was just trying to get warm. My question is what dumba** let him out becuase its not like ball pythons are native to America or anything.

When I read this out load to my husband he said must be a cat. That poor baby I was wishing it was a cat. Yes I do somewhat like cats. But I like the balls better.

My mom sent me this e-mail And I couldn't get the pics up. Pretty sad. She said "Can you believe this?"

Wow, That is not something I never wanted to see. That is very disturbing and I feel very bad for that animal. That has got to be one of the most horrible ways to die!

They are still horrid, I feel sorry for that ball. Horrible way to go

Each time I see it there is a different story involved.
