"Officials believe the snakes were smuggled into the theater in backpacks."
I've never seen a moviegoer enter a theater with a backpack, and if they do, I'm sure the attendants would check it first. Not for snakes, mind you, but for things like food or drinks, since theater owners hate people who sneak in food and beverages. By all means, don't sneak that Coke in the theater, but a snake? Sure, why not?!
Pretty soon they are going to check and double-check
everyone that goes into and out of a movie theater, much like security does at an airport. That's my new pet peeve; since one idiot snuck a liquid bomb onto a plane, I'm not allowed to travel with a carry-on bag which has anything liquid in it. I can't even put toothpaste in my carry-on! What if I'm flying to meet a hot chick and I want to brush my teeth on the plane before I meet her in the terminal? New regulations say I don't have this privilege. POPPYCOCK!
Sorry, I just think certain things in the world have gotten
way out of hand.
No, I like women.
