I didn't wake up this morning thinking I would be googling python snakes today, but that is exactly what I did.
The Billings Gazette has an online section entitled "Strange News", which can sometimes be amusing. Today there is an article about a python in Australia that ate four golf balls thinking they were chicken eggs. According to the article about pythons, they use sight, smell and heat to ambush their prey. Evidently the owners of a chicken coop placed the balls inside the coop to encourage their hen to nest. The article didn't say if the plan worked, but I bet they don't try it again. The snake, after surgery, is recovering nicely.

I'm trying to think of a golf-related pun or joke here...something like yelling "Fore!" before you whack a snake?
