Puppy the Boa has been found. (Updated)

Yup. Puppy the Boa was found this morning.... in Northbay. It seems some girls come out of their house and saw him curled up by the hedges. Evidence of poor parenting appeared when instead of immediately getting a shotgun or knife to kill the monster that terrorized a whole city for nearly a week and distracted us from important issues such as Medicaid and MPACT, they called the police. Mr. Eaves arrived at the scene, the snake was identified as being his pet and not the county engineer, and took the snake back into um, custody to go home. Case closed.

Here is a message from John Arthur Eaves, Jr:

Message from John Eaves:


Around 9:30 Friday night Ashley Kabelac, and her friend, Leah Hartley and sister Allison Kabelac saw a large snake crossing Northbay drive into the yard of Betty Cox. Madison police department was called and pulled the unknown 7 ft snake from the bushes. Officers Matthew Horiani, Drew Hall, Ronald Bell, Christian Murray, and Assistant Chief Robert Sanders assisted in the reconisance/ rescue of the snake. John Arthur Eaves was notified and came to the police department and confirmed the snake was his son's "puppy".

"Thank you to my neighbors for the amazing amount of grace shown to me and my family through this ordeal and to these young women who found Puppy and the courage of the Madison Police Department which so quickly responded." Eaves said "So many people volunteered their time to help us look for "puppy" and so many forgave us and prayed us through this scare. We really saw what a wonderful community we live in."

My Son John Arthur III is so very excited to have "puppy" back. "I'm happy that Puppy has been found. Now I can concentrate on other ways to raise money for my upcoming mission trips to Africa and India."


How did it wind up at Northbay? Simple but you clowns haven't figured it out yet. Boas will get up in cars, especially engines and from time to time, dashboards. There is an internet circular that shows one hiding in a dashboard discovered by a police officer who used to have one. Probably hitched a ride and wound up in Northbay.

How did this snake travel from Reunion to Northbay ??

meople said...

The carpool lane you moron...

How in the world did it get across I-55?? Gluckstadt bridge? Madison interchange? Did he have the foresight to cross at night with less cars likely to spot/squish him? Puppy should get a trophy for his stealth like maneuvers. Have there been any reports as to how many puppies mysteriously disappeared while Puppy was en route?

See, my wife and I met this couple in Northbay on Craig's list.....

I saw John Bell Crosby's trunk lid popped open yesterday and he was headed east on Hoy. There was a cardboard cutout of Elvis in the passenger seat and a khayak tied to the roof with twine from Mattress World. One of Mary's blue units was following from a safe distance. I guess I should have come forward earlier.

So, this snake traveled 10 miles across an interstate, a U.S. Hwy, and some of the most traveled residential roads in all of Mississippi? I'm not buying it. I wonder if Lil' John was being completely truthful.

The kid and the kid's friends took the dang snake and let it out in Northbay, and daddy knew it all along.

Micah Gober said...

Then Daddy should be arrested for terrorism.

I think it is Nortlake. Area close to where he slipped out.

I call BS. I mean, really, is there anyone dumb enough to believe that version of events?

Anonymous said...

Seriously? How is the next news story NOT about how the snake traveled 8 or so miles across ALL those roads AND the interstate? I agree! This is complete bs.

roughneck said...

it would have sought out warmth, like provided by a car/truck engine and slithered in or around the engine or other parts of the car/truck.

Said vehicle drives to northbay, parks it for a night and Puppy leaves the previously comfortable home to find other arrangements. Come on, readers, this ain't rocket science.

Mmmm. Nah. Too many moving parts in confined space.

Really? Now I have to check to car engine for Boa Constrictors every time I pull into my garage? What about gators? They like cars too?

God! Give me a break! The snake rode with Elvis and Tal Braddock! They hit all the party spots. Sadly, though. The snake is going to rehab on Tuesday.

"Now I can concentrate on other ways to raise money for my upcoming mission trips to Africa and India." Would anyone expect any other type of denoument from plaintiff lawyer John Arther Eaves?

"The kid and the kid's friends took the dang snake and let it out in Northbay, and daddy knew it all along. "

OK, according to what the Eaves kid told a classmate (who happens to live under my roof), he sold the snake to benefit some charity and was on his way up to Oxford to deliver it when he developed car trouble, turned around and returned to his house about 1:30 a.m. So as not to disturb his family he left the snake outside in a cage overnight while he went inside to sleep. When he awoke the cage was empty.

I doubt even Colin Quinn would try sticking with that story, but so far the kid is.

Hope no one up there has a cage full of pet Cobras.......

I just read on facebook that it was found on Northbay Drive IN Reunion. Can this be confirmed. If so, that makes a lot more sense! Kinda stupid for the planners in Reunion to name a street Northbay though.

Shadowfax said...

Who is Colin Quinn? Is the state film-house gearing up for the influx of Bob-Trucks from California that will soon inundate Canton? Who will play John Arthur the III? Junior? Senior? Who will play John Bell Williams and George Flaggs? Can Elvis still button his britches and will John Bell be excused from Kroger cleanup in order to camp out at the courthouse to deal with sack lunches for film crew? Will William Truly be used as an extra to holler "Gott DAMMMM Madison County!"

Any of you folks thinking about running against JAR the next time he puts his name in the hat....Save this! Makes for GREAT political fodder.

Kingfish said...

Police told me Northbay.

ophelia said...

I, for one, shall miss this story very much. It was even better than the day a big baboon got loose at the zoo. (This was before Mayor Johnson got elected, so there was no possibility of tasteless jokes, alas...)

There is always the possibility of tasteless jokes. Give me a minute....

Glad the snake was found. Hopefully, he'll go to a better home.

Then there is the guy who used to hang out at Hal and Mal's with his pet wolf. Pure bred.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
