Could someone please explain how a four foot yellow snake entered into the lobby of our front building?
I'm pretty sure that's a first in the seventy five years my family has lived here.
Granted, there is a courtyard with small gardens between the two buildings but it isn't a nature conservancy by any stretch of the imagination.
Possible causes:
1. Someone East Village drug addict just realized their pet snake is missing.
2. It's an initial sign of the impending Rapture that George W. Bush is looking forward to.
3. A scare tactic made by a maniacal real estate developer in an effort to get his hands on skyrocketing property - currently inhabited by actors, writers, social workers, artists, musicians, other nice people and pets.
Look, I'm a New Yorker. Other than household pets, my version of urban wildlife is rats, mice, roaches, waterbugs, flys and pigeons.
Snakes are not in my portfolio.

evi - the doorman theory may be the answer. I thought I saw Lucifer in the neighborhood looking for a job.
Lady - I'm right with you in the snake haters brigade. I'm sure that scooby agrees.
I vote for #3.
Sounds too probable to be funny.
Oh, and EWWWWWWW!
I think it was a courier. Did it have a messenger bag and a bike?
Jin - I share your "delight" with snakes. eeewwwwww!
Kranki - Actually he looked more like a professional dog walker. He seemed to be carrying an ipod.
Or MINE in rural suburbia either!
Hh
It has to be a lost pet... but the new doorman possibility is hysterical!!!!
