Now that hurts! Glad all of the animals are ok though. Maybe you should just let Fran talk it over with the boy. He might prefer the orange jumpsuit though :grin01:

Nah. Fran would just tongue flick him to death. She is as tame as a labrador. Maybe let him have some time with Lourdes, our BIG Burm :grin01:

Good call. I figure that's a good story to tell on the forum.

So for anyone who might not know (like Dale) I work in a reptile store. Next door is a Japanese restaraunt. At 2:40 am on Saturday morning, a drunk driver drove through the front of the Japanese restaraunt, and all the way to the back. He then decided to back up went through the wall and into our store. Then, he put it back in drive and drove all the way to the other side of the restaraunt. Figuring that in the state that he was in, he wasn't going to be able to get the car out of the building, he got out, locked the car, set the car alarm and took off out the back of the restaraunt.
Luckily, the wall that he knocked down in our store had no cages (except empty "for sale" cages.) He was about 6 inches away from hitting our incubator, and about 18 inches from hitting the cages with many of our animals.
The Japanese restaraunt, on the other hand, is completely destroyed.
Turns out that the car was not registered to the guy that was driving, but his parents, who came to the scene shortly after it happened.
In the car, there were 11 empty beers, two of which were 22 oz'ers.

So that's my exciting work news :)

Wow... sounds like he missed at least 2 walls... bad form that... :bang:

Glad to hear the critters and the eventual hatchlings survived the deal. And hey, the guy had the good sense to put the car alarm on. I mean, ya never know who might have come and stolen the car right out of the restaruant right?

And my mother wonders why I didn't want to move back down into the city. At least the drunk drivers out here mostly just take out the guard rails on the freeway.
