We apologize, and promise to investigate this matter and have several people fired, even if this means we have to go out and hire people for the express purpose of firing them. Thank you.

UPDATE: Commenter gfunksizzle comments: "I hope Daryl Sprout, snake hunter, has a theme song. That'd make it a lot cooler."

This blog agrees, and suggests that we all write such a song. It might go something like:

If you got a snake
That you want to get out
The man to call
Is Daryl Sprout
